Financial freedom gets all the hype — retire early, never work again, live off your investments. But what if that goal feels too far away?
In this solo episode, Arielle Deane shares why she’s shifted her focus to financial flexibility — the ability to create time, options, and breathing room without needing millions in the bank.
You’ll learn:
The difference between financial freedom and financial flexibility
Why flexibility can change your life now, even if freedom is years away
Practical ways to build financial flexibility through investing, trading, and other income streams
How flexibility lets you pause, pivot careers, and spend more time on what matters most
If the idea of early retirement feels unrealistic, this episode will help you find a more achievable path to time freedom, financial independence, and peace of mind.
