Welcome To The Freedom Formula!
The Freedom Formula Podcast: Achieving Financial, Location and Time Freedom

The Freedom Formula

Achieving the type of “freedom” you're seeking probably has already been done by someone else. So, why not just reverse-engineer the formula instead of reinventing the wheel?

Neel Parekh, CEO of MaidThis Franchise, interviews people who have already achieved Time, Location, or Financial Freedom and dives into their stories. The common thread: how to live life on your own terms.
