What if the real barrier to financial independence isn't your income, but the courage to live your own life instead of someone else's?
Brad and Jonathan announce the launch of Everyday Courage, a new podcast with Jillian Johnsworth exploring the intersection of financial independence and intentional living. Jillian shares her journey of losing and reclaiming her identity while pursuing FI, challenging the notion that success means meeting external expectations. The conversation unpacks how to define success on your own terms, prioritize what truly matters, and take concrete steps toward your goals—particularly valuable as a new year begins.
