The freedom discussed here is a high level of freedom. In some nations, the freedom is more humble to be the "freedom of movement" in term of person and money. Even watching TED in youtube is a privilege but not a necessity! Freedom just like air, when you have it > you don't feel it. Once you miss it, you will instantly feel it. So treasures your freedom By the way, there are external freedom (discussed in this video) and internal freedom (not being discussed in this video > mind) too.
Is it just me who is struck by the countless negative male comments? Especially about the fact that he hired other people to work for her? Does it bother you so much that a woman is free and self-realized professionally?
She is now bound to her new idea of freedom. And it goes on until you run out of ideas. It is so subtle, the actual freedom that only a sensitive mind is capable of understanding. Freedom is nothing most of us 99.9% know of. We think to have freedom is to do what we like. We think to have freedom is to have choices. No. Freedom is choicelessnes. Weird, right? There is only one right action. To have choices is to have confusion and conflicts in the brain. Only a complete silent mind free to observe is capable of observing what is, the fact, and out of that pure observation comes the right action. Attention, your complete attention is what is needed. Attention is like a flame which burns all that is unnecessary. The only action. Its far from an ordinary mind. By ordinary mind I mean a mind which is so conditioned that its not open to accept new ideas. Because whatever we think that its my personal thought of freedom or my own idea of freedom is not your personal. It seems to be so. Its an illusion. All the ideas are borrowed. Look deeply, carefully and observe. The only way out is J Krishnamurthy. And nothing else. 🙏
Brilliant talk by one of the most inspiring women I have the privilege of knowing. Trail blazing for millions of us who have been trapped in corporate 9-5 jobs. Natalie is a true professional who has been so consistent in her mission to help others achieve what she has managed to do for herself, which is to run her business while enjoying a location-independent lifestyle. A woman to watch. Well done Natalie! XX
Jenny Plant I'm sorry but you say that she runs her own business and that gives her freedom. It seems to me that it was because she had other people doing the work for her that allowed her to do what she wanted with her time. So in essence other people are running the business for her. Which is fine and I commend her for her accomplishment. Yet she is telling people that if they do the same then they too can be free as per their own definition of freedom. Sounds nice but in reality not everyone can have freedom following her recommendation as someone has to do the work. If everyone expected others to run their business for them then no work would be getting done and the entire business economy would implode. I'm glad she is gaining recognition though. To which I'm sure being privileged enough to be selected to be a Ted speaker is helping her business nicely as well. Good for her but not everyone can do as she suggests here!

Nice job Natalie! Thank you for sharing your story and continuing to inspire the freedom mindset and lifestyle. I left the 9-5 back in 2011, started my online business and can report that it's the best thing I've ever done in my life . As I contemplate my next move, your talk is a great reminder to keep exploring and asking "what does freedom mean to me and what does my perfect day look like". Always a fun and inspiring exercise that leads to great things!

This blessed the socks off of me. I've been saying this forever as I work my corporate job with thanksgiving that I have a job, but thinking that I have to get out of this rat race. The entire talk resonated with me but particularly the part where you say the banks, post office, etc. operating hours are the same as our work hours, making it difficult to run errands, etc. Thanks for the inspiration. I'm joining you as a Freedom Fighter! Well done! And, thanks again.
"Well if Fire Fighters fight fire and Crime Fighter fight Crime then what do Freedom Fighters Fight? They never explain that part of it to us do they?" - George Carlin - Freedom Fighter is a contradictory term/title!
Nat, thanks for this inspiring message. I want to be 1 out of 1,000,000 entrepreneurs who just do that - choosing freedom in business and adventure in life. I was teary eyed while sharing your life realization when your dad was in the hospital - that FREEDOM is the ability to drop everything in the moment to come halfway around the globe to be with the most important people in our lives, to be with our loved ones. And that Freedom is totally unique to each of us.
Great talk - I've spent the last few years figuring out how to do this. It hasn't been straightforward or easy, as you demonstrate, but you can get there. It's probably taken over ten years but it's worth it...love the message!
Freedom is not just a thing that comes to you when you want it to. It comes when you've earned it. when when you fight for it. when you die for it. For your kids so they can have a better life.- Justin Ryan. this is something my dad tells me every day. When he also tells me don't forget are rights too don't for get why are four fathers made this country AMERICA.
Beautiful, wonderful, inspiring, and reduced me to tears. Natalie, I feel so proud of you and all the twists and turns your journey has made - you have lived them all with sincerity. So genuine. And the true meaning of freedom is unique to each of us and how we choose to live and love. It is glorious to see someone who does live with such fullness.
I'm sorry but what she describes is not freedom. It's individual independence. The only way Freedom can be discussed is when referring to all people. Unless every individual has it then nobody is free. What she describes is having machines(automation) and people doing the work for her so she can do as she pleases with her time! 'Freedom Business' is a contradiction and a falacy of a term.
Damn it... freedom is a concept... And concepts are blurry and subjective. But for me, freedom is the power to be able to control your self, and not want to change anything!

Oh, I can answer that question easily. If I were king of the world, I would immediately demand that we all think about what is needed so that we can make this world a better place. All trivial needs that we might espouse would be non-grata, because our own trivial needs would pale in comparison to what our world needs...for us to survive as a race and as humanity.
Once again, an excellent message that resonates with many who are not only in search of freedom, but what it means to them. The point you made about how one's definition of freedom can change as circumstances do was particularly informative. This is another way to be free-to create a lifestyle which provides the flexibility to take advantage of opportunities, or to adjust a previous notion or decision to fit our current situation.
Actually that's the problem. People keep trying to redefine what freedom is and that's why humanity hasn't obtained it yet. What she describes is individual independence obtained through automation and other people doing the work for her. She is merely talking about Capitalism masquerading as Freedom!
Amazing Ted Talk! Now the challenge is... creating a freedom plan as a millennial who is building up my experience. I feel tension as I am encouraged to be patient and work my way uo in the corporte world, while also feeling a pull to be more free in my life. This video is definitely an eye opener for me to really invest more time into building my personal freedom plan! Thanks Natalie!
1. Free your mind from the conventional ways of living. (Could you live out your suitcase?) 2. Do work that you love that supports your ideal lifestyle. (Could you be a travel blogger?) 3. Define your own version of freedom and live it. (i.e., drop all responsibility and be ok)
Are you chasing freedom or running away from yourself? Look inwards, deeply, sincerely, and you will find yourself to be free anywhere, anytime, doing anything.
not true...free from what? inside you are free only because you give up freedom in the physical world and follow freedom TO and reject freedom from that is the Universe before you ALL FREEDOM FROM as freedom TO never and never will exist....freedom from is spheres and circles and all that exist as any form freed from not being self in the random and extremes...silly humans all got it wrong. BLIND till you build my cities all doomed till you obey and free yourselves from the random and extremes in the peace and love of freedom from...where all humans always belonged since the dawn of civilization and failed to know or be it. concentric circles of arches with near flat roof as super structure...it can be anything you want and near any size you need and be low or high tech...one just add the addon parts to make it what it is...greenhouse on roof...solar heat from them sink under to radiate back...solar wind...crops....breeding cities and non breeding...population balance... kind balance.... work balance... all live WHERE they are peers....only ones we never will have place for are the ones that claim FREEDOM TO?RANDOM AND EXTREME against freedom itself. BALANCE IS IN THE LINE OF THE CIRCLE AS THE CIRCLE....we once told you living walls and we told you YOU live in the wall...we told you live INSIDE in balance not outside in random and extremes....now choose. life or doom you all choose...build wise.

Probably you are more confused about freedom again. That moment when you said, "I am happy and i am free". You have no clue but you have to show the people that you know.
Great stuff Natalie, such a great message and so well presented.Such a good point that most people work the same hours as the services they need to use (shops, doctors, hairdressers etc). Yes that is crazy.Totally agree that its all about choice and freedom is unique to each individual. Well done for getting this message out there and inspiring people to think about the life they live.Carpe Diem
Andy Willis There 8s no freedom unless it is shared by all peoples. What she describes is individual independence obtained by using automation and other people to do the work for her so she may do what she pleases with her time. What she describes is Capitalism masquerading as Freedom!
What a spectacular woman! With a little more (or quite a lot more) life experience she will understand the limitations of what she is saying, or maybe her life could include having children.
I am sure I have a lot more to learn, but I don't feel I'm talking about any limitations here Alan. I don't wish to have children, that's not my version of freedom, happy to be an Aunty though and I now have a gorgeous puppy.

This is not freedom, it's the choice to abandon responsibility and make others do it for you. Although what she said was influential ultimately its not necessarily being free. Then again freedom is a malleable definition. At least for me, freedom is the abandonment of the chains that bind our minds, body's, and souls. We've been put in this existence for what purpose? Unknown that is, yet we serve others how does that make sense if our purpose was never truly defined. Personally, my definition of freedom is to be anything and everything, no limitations on where,who,what,why, how you are supposed, say, act, and do things.
Wow such a powerful message. So many great lessons and reminders in there for me to keep tweaking, I am a long way along my own freedom journey but I am still very much tied to my business....at the moment! Off I go to re-visit what freedom DOES look like to me. xx

individual freedom is weighed against the freedom of others. the freedom of others is weighed against individual freedom too people have some basic rights that mean they dont have to be like everyone else. its ends up being a give and take.
Unfortunately, this cannot happen to all individuals. Maybe you are indeed an inspiring personality and you are still doing well...but nobody is totally FREE unless he or she gets rid of technology (at least as a way of making a profit) and come back to THE natural way of life, which is being close to nature and indulging in lovable hobbies, (tech-free and stress-free), something that we used to do in the past...! way before technology was invented...I wish you all the best!
I love this but was wondering what you do to be close to those you love, to have lunch with your mum, siblings etc. But the reality is that most of the time I don't see my siblings and friends for months even though am only 1 hr away from them. Was also wondering why you were raising money for charity when you had little yourself. But I love the process of discovery through following your desires
Well presented Natalie or should we now call you flaterlie :-) As I see you being, " one of the good guys " in the realm of make money online, your message of "freedom as it means to you" is a refreshing slant on the image of internet entrepreneurs driving expensive cars and slurping cocktails on the beach as the sole indicator of success.
Basically her solution was to hire others to work for her and empower them to directly make the money while she plays around the world. Her freedom plan is to train others to do the work you were doing.
This is ok but we can't all have an internet business that looks after itself, for her business to work she needs the money of many many people who have to earn that money from guess what - a job!
is it not ironic calling oneself a freedomist when all he or she has done is subject him/herself to another set of rules and regulations, controllable or not.
Glad she found her calling. She deserves everything she's done for herself. Possessions are certainly overrated and I like her adventurous spirit. That said, moving about is easier if you have no one else dependent on you (partner, children, parents). I have those encumbrances...and wouldn't change them for all the money bloggers make. Do you know the history of a person that has a famous building or boulevard named after her or him? (Likely no). Procreating and raising the next generation is the only true path to immortality---they, and their descendants, are there impacting the world long after you're gone...
Is it just me who is struck by the countless negative male comments? Especially about the fact that she hired other people to work for her? Does it bother you so much that a woman is free and self-realized professionally?
Hope you don't waste too much of your life chasing after "freedom", because when your are 50, alone and burned out you'll find it's too late. Get it our of your system, find a good man, settle down, get married and have a family. Then you'll find true happiness watching your children grow...
But isn't going getting a bunch of people working in teams... it is true freedom if you're enforcing the same system that was forced onto you? also, where is privilege in the stratosphere of the world? people come from different places, what about those are from third world countries and come from conditions that are limiting, this ted talk although interesting was incredibly problematic in the sense that it reiterates the ideals of those who come from privilege as well as create a false utopia that people mistakenly fall for all the time...

Everyone is free to do as they please. Heck you could kill someone if you wanted to with the possibility of prison. We are free with possible consequences.
Only to a limited degree, IMO. We can choose to override certain impulses or attitudes we know would hurt others when there's no justification for hurting them? As for freedom, there's also the freedom to commit vandalism and worst - EVERY kind of worse you can imagine, and I mean EVERY. For this reason, I put human dignity above freedom. Freedom's important ONLY to the extent that it isn't used to hurt, harm, or demean the dignity of others outside the scope of defense, retaliation, or punishment (reasonable and proportionate degrees of the latter three, of course). Otherwise we'd have dangerous chaos, not even a society at all.

Freedom is an ILLUSION!!! Even the perceived GOD or creator of existence could not be free. At the EXACT moment of causation GOD would become obligated to this creation to be the very BEST possible version of that God in order to achieve the BEST possible results from that creation. So really NOTHING can be 100% free lol remember absolute freedom equals uncontrolled chaos but limited parameters and preset laws equal harmony and order. Now it's obvious to see which one governs THIS reality lol
How about become free by inspiring others to work with you on major projects that you couldn't possibly do by yourself. By employing people who do a better job than you to do important work, and at the same time give them meaning and purpose?! How on earth are you going to make an impact in this world working just by yourself, doing everything yourself and having no time for family, friends, relationships and yourself?
Yeah, I'm sure that's how companies like Walmart recruits employees, by "inspiring others" to work with them on "projects" to make Sam Walton obscenely wealthy. It gives those employees "meaning" and "purpose". In other words, work for me, and you will become free by making me rich!
I'm not sure you fully understand the work I do or who I help. If you did you'd not have made this uneducated response. By the way Sam Walton had great ethics and a vision for his company that never included the way Walmart operates now. He'd likely turn in his grave
Ahh the ever evolving idea of freedom. It indeed is worth every sacrifice that could be implied. That goal must never be forgot.(*changes subject*) Now ,, let's talk about that very strange thing that is obsessed over and feared simultaneously... Influence!!! The mass understanding that will result in the other. But maybe that's just the Chinese influence talking . Idk anymore. My head hurts .

So you got your freedom on the back of someone else when you hired someone to do all your work... He or she needs to feel unhappy for your hapiness... Not quit an inspiration if you want to sacrifice someone this way
I listened until 9:20 when I figured out that the key to freedom is living off of the margin between the price of your product and the cost of the labor to produce it... How is this inspiring?!
I hope the contractors that you hired to run your business are sending you only rents money for your equipment, if not then you are the perfect example of what is wrong with with the world. The fact that you say it with a smile on your face shows how screwed up your sense of morality is.

The amount of white privilege in this Ted talk is uncanny. At the very least she uses her money and skills for amusement instead of gaming the system and abusing those less fortunate.
That's quite frankly the most ridiculous take, but it's your opinion. What amusement did you see in me flying home to be with my dying father? Or the fact that I pay my team well, to do a better job than me, working on meaningful projects that help aspiring and established entrepreneurs to create more impact in this world, while freeing up more time to spend quality time with their loved ones?
@@NatalieSisson1 I searched how to have true freedom and it’s the 3rd video in a row that I watched and I’m far away from getting my freedom and my thoughts are exactly the same as you I don’t wanna own a house because it holds you back and I wanna travel the world / always on the move and seeing the world and making a living online. And I see nothing wrong with it. Because of you many people are not jobless you’ve created jobs for people. White privileged or not. You have to do something with your life right instead of seeing the negatives for everything. That comment person doesn’t know what he’s talking about
The freedom discussed here is a high level of freedom.

By the way, there are external freedom (discussed in this video) and internal freedom (not being discussed in this video > mind) too.
So true freedom is forcing another person to be unfree while you have the ultimate freedom
Is it just me who is struck by the countless negative male comments? Especially about the fact that he hired other people to work for her? Does it bother you so much that a woman is free and self-realized professionally?
@@rosatatuata Maybe you should watch the video again... and read V.T.-s comment again... To find less "negative male comments"
Bless you!
So true
She is now bound to her new idea of freedom. And it goes on until you run out of ideas.
It is so subtle, the actual freedom that only a sensitive mind is capable of understanding. Freedom is nothing most of us 99.9% know of. We think to have freedom is to do what we like. We think to have freedom is to have choices. No. Freedom is choicelessnes. Weird, right? There is only one right action. To have choices is to have confusion and conflicts in the brain. Only a complete silent mind free to observe is capable of observing what is, the fact, and out of that pure observation comes the right action. Attention, your complete attention is what is needed. Attention is like a flame which burns all that is unnecessary. The only action. Its far from an ordinary mind. By ordinary mind I mean a mind which is so conditioned that its not open to accept new ideas. Because whatever we think that its my personal thought of freedom or my own idea of freedom is not your personal. It seems to be so. Its an illusion. All the ideas are borrowed. Look deeply, carefully and observe. The only way out is J Krishnamurthy. And nothing else. 🙏
Brilliant talk by one of the most inspiring women I have the privilege of knowing. Trail blazing for millions of us who have been trapped in corporate 9-5 jobs. Natalie is a true professional who has been so consistent in her mission to help others achieve what she has managed to do for herself, which is to run her business while enjoying a location-independent lifestyle. A woman to watch. Well done Natalie! XX
Jenny Plant I'm sorry but you say that she runs her own business and that gives her freedom.
It seems to me that it was because she had other people doing the work for her that allowed her to do what she wanted with her time.
So in essence other people are running the business for her. Which is fine and I commend her for her accomplishment.
Yet she is telling people that if they do the same then they too can be free as per their own definition of freedom.
Sounds nice but in reality not everyone can have freedom following her recommendation as someone has to do the work.
If everyone expected others to run their business for them then no work would be getting done and the entire business economy would implode.
I'm glad she is gaining recognition though. To which I'm sure being privileged enough to be selected to be a Ted speaker is helping her business nicely as well. Good for her but not everyone can do as she suggests here!

Nice job Natalie! Thank you for sharing your story and continuing to inspire the freedom mindset and lifestyle. I left the 9-5 back in 2011, started my online business and can report that it's the best thing I've ever done in my life . As I contemplate my next move, your talk is a great reminder to keep exploring and asking "what does freedom mean to me and what does my perfect day look like". Always a fun and inspiring exercise that leads to great things!

This blessed the socks off of me. I've been saying this forever as I work my corporate job with thanksgiving that I have a job, but thinking that I have to get out of this rat race. The entire talk resonated with me but particularly the part where you say the banks, post office, etc. operating hours are the same as our work hours, making it difficult to run errands, etc. Thanks for the inspiration. I'm joining you as a Freedom Fighter! Well done! And, thanks again.
"If crime fighters fight crime, and firefighters fight fires... what do you think freedom fighters fight?" -- George Carlin
"Well if Fire Fighters fight fire and Crime Fighter fight Crime then what do Freedom Fighters Fight? They never explain that part of it to us do they?" - George Carlin -
Freedom Fighter is a contradictory term/title!
Joe Marks I see we think alike. lol I didn't see your post before I posted mine. George was the greatest philosophical comedian of all time!
Nat, thanks for this inspiring message. I want to be 1 out of 1,000,000 entrepreneurs who just do that - choosing freedom in business and adventure in life.
I was teary eyed while sharing your life realization when your dad was in the hospital - that FREEDOM is the ability to drop everything in the moment to come halfway around the globe to be with the most important people in our lives, to be with our loved ones.
And that Freedom is totally unique to each of us.
Great talk - I've spent the last few years figuring out how to do this. It hasn't been straightforward or easy, as you demonstrate, but you can get there. It's probably taken over ten years but it's worth it...love the message!
Freedom is not just a thing that comes to you when you want it to. It comes when you've earned it. when when you fight for it. when you die for it. For your kids so they can have a better life.- Justin Ryan. this is something my dad tells me every day. When he also tells me don't forget are rights too don't for get why are four fathers made this country AMERICA.
America is a great continent, stretching all the way from Alaska to Chile.
Beautiful, wonderful, inspiring, and reduced me to tears. Natalie, I feel so proud of you and all the twists and turns your journey has made - you have lived them all with sincerity. So genuine. And the true meaning of freedom is unique to each of us and how we choose to live and love. It is glorious to see someone who does live with such fullness.
I'm sorry but what she describes is not freedom. It's individual independence.
The only way Freedom can be discussed is when referring to all people. Unless every individual has it then nobody is free.
What she describes is having machines(automation) and people doing the work for her so she can do as she pleases with her time!
'Freedom Business' is a contradiction and a falacy of a term.
Damn it... freedom is a concept... And concepts are blurry and subjective.
But for me, freedom is the power to be able to control your self, and not want to change anything!

Oh, I can answer that question easily. If I were king of the world, I would immediately demand that we all think about what is needed so that we can make this world a better place.
All trivial needs that we might espouse would be non-grata, because our own trivial needs would pale in comparison to what our world needs...for us to survive as a race and as humanity.
I just love Natalie. I consider her a very important mentor in my journey towards freedom in life and business.
Thank you so much Say! So touching to hear this.
Once again, an excellent message that resonates with many who are not only in search of freedom, but what it means to them. The point you made about how one's definition of freedom can change as circumstances do was particularly informative. This is another way to be free-to create a lifestyle which provides the flexibility to take advantage of opportunities, or to adjust a previous notion or decision to fit our current situation.
Thank you so much Roxanne
Actually that's the problem. People keep trying to redefine what freedom is and that's why humanity hasn't obtained it yet.
What she describes is individual independence obtained through automation and other people doing the work for her. She is merely talking about Capitalism masquerading as Freedom!
Amazing Ted Talk!
Now the challenge is... creating a freedom plan as a millennial who is building up my experience. I feel tension as I am encouraged to be patient and work my way uo in the corporte world, while also feeling a pull to be more free in my life.
This video is definitely an eye opener for me to really invest more time into building my personal freedom plan! Thanks Natalie!
Love this and really enjoy that you're starting towards courses for those who are trying to get there, but aren't in business yet. Great message.

1. Free your mind from the conventional ways of living. (Could you live out your suitcase?)
2. Do work that you love that supports your ideal lifestyle. (Could you be a travel blogger?)
3. Define your own version of freedom and live it. (i.e., drop all responsibility and be ok)
Thanx Flatelie! (From a Mountain biker in South Africa)
You are an inspiration!
Hope I can also do a talk like that one day.
Keep it up!
Are you chasing freedom or running away from yourself? Look inwards, deeply, sincerely, and you will find yourself to be free anywhere, anytime, doing anything.
not true...free from what? inside you are free only because you give up freedom in the physical world and follow freedom TO and reject freedom from that is the Universe before you ALL FREEDOM FROM as freedom TO never and never will exist....freedom from is spheres and circles and all that exist as any form freed from not being self in the random and extremes...silly humans all got it wrong.
BLIND till you build my cities all doomed till you obey and free yourselves from the random and extremes in the peace and love of freedom from...where all humans always belonged since the dawn of civilization and failed to know or be it. concentric circles of arches with near flat roof as super structure...it can be anything you want and near any size you need and be low or high tech...one just add the addon parts to make it what it is...greenhouse on roof...solar heat from them sink under to radiate back...solar wind...crops....breeding cities and non breeding...population balance... kind balance.... work balance... all live WHERE they are peers....only ones we never will have place for are the ones that claim FREEDOM TO?RANDOM AND EXTREME against freedom itself. BALANCE IS IN THE LINE OF THE CIRCLE AS THE CIRCLE....we once told you living walls and we told you YOU live in the wall...we told you live INSIDE in balance not outside in random and extremes....now choose. life or doom you all choose...build wise.

Probably you are more confused about freedom again.
That moment when you said, "I am happy and i am free". You have no clue but you have to show the people that you know.
Great stuff Natalie, such a great message and so well presented.Such a good point that most people work the same hours as the services they need to use (shops, doctors, hairdressers etc). Yes that is crazy.Totally agree that its all about choice and freedom is unique to each individual. Well done for getting this message out there and inspiring people to think about the life they live.Carpe Diem

What a spectacular woman! With a little more (or quite a lot more) life experience she will understand the limitations of what she is saying, or maybe her life could include having children.
I am sure I have a lot more to learn, but I don't feel I'm talking about any limitations here Alan. I don't wish to have children, that's not my version of freedom, happy to be an Aunty though and I now have a gorgeous puppy.
Good luck Natalie, not many have the courtesy to reply and comment.

This is not freedom, it's the choice to abandon responsibility and make others do it for you. Although what she said was influential ultimately its not necessarily being free. Then again freedom is a malleable definition. At least for me, freedom is the abandonment of the chains that bind our minds, body's, and souls. We've been put in this existence for what purpose? Unknown that is, yet we serve others how does that make sense if our purpose was never truly defined. Personally, my definition of freedom is to be anything and everything, no limitations on where,who,what,why, how you are supposed, say, act, and do things.

Hi Natalie! I love this talk!
Thank you Christina
Cheers to grabbing your freedom and never letting go! Great job Natalie!! XO
Wow such a powerful message. So many great lessons and reminders in there for me to keep tweaking, I am a long way along my own freedom journey but I am still very much tied to my business....at the moment! Off I go to re-visit what freedom DOES look like to me. xx

Sounds awesome ❤️, you are amazing ❤️❤️
awesome Natalie.!! I need to follow you I really love to hear what you have to say. because it is so encourauraging
individual freedom is weighed against the freedom of others. the freedom of others is weighed against individual freedom too people have some basic rights that mean they dont have to be like everyone else. its ends up being a give and take.
hello from inha

Just Awesome
"feeling unfree? just quit your job and become a successful entrepreneur, that way you'll have more money and more time."
Awesome. I shared with my mastermind group!
Why thank you Eric!
Unfortunately, this cannot happen to all individuals. Maybe you are indeed an inspiring personality and you are still doing well...but nobody is totally FREE unless he or she gets rid of technology (at least as a way of making a profit) and come back to THE natural way of life, which is being close to nature and indulging in lovable hobbies, (tech-free and stress-free), something that we used to do in the past...! way before technology was invented...I wish you all the best!
Absolutely loved your TEDx talk Natalie! What an amazing adventure you have been on so far. Truly inspiring, thank you! Be happy :D
Thank you Lisa.
Yeah but what's the turnaround
I love this but was wondering what you do to be close to those you love, to have lunch with your mum, siblings etc. But the reality is that most of the time I don't see my siblings and friends for months even though am only 1 hr away from them.
Was also wondering why you were raising money for charity when you had little yourself. But I love the process of discovery through following your desires
this seem to be an ad rather than a TED Talk, she talks about her business more than her experiences
Mark Hubert glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.
She describes Capitalism masquerading as Freedom!
Well presented Natalie or should we now call you flaterlie :-) As I see you being, " one of the good guys " in the realm of make money online, your message of "freedom as it means to you" is a refreshing slant on the image of internet entrepreneurs driving expensive cars and slurping cocktails on the beach as the sole indicator of success.
Basically her solution was to hire others to work for her and empower them to directly make the money while she plays around the world. Her freedom plan is to train others to do the work you were doing.
All her freedom was coming from instagram and facebook. I was expecting someting different tbh.
This is ok but we can't all have an internet business that looks after itself, for her business to work she needs the money of many many people who have to earn that money from guess what - a job!
is it not ironic calling oneself a freedomist when all he or she has done is subject him/herself to another set of rules and regulations, controllable or not.
That’s a nice amount of countries.
Increadible talk very Inspiring
Thanks so much!
Glad she found her calling. She deserves everything she's done for herself. Possessions are certainly overrated and I like her adventurous spirit. That said, moving about is easier if you have no one else dependent on you (partner, children, parents). I have those encumbrances...and wouldn't change them for all the money bloggers make. Do you know the history of a person that has a famous building or boulevard named after her or him?
(Likely no). Procreating and raising the next generation is the only true path to immortality---they, and their descendants, are there impacting the world long after you're gone...
Wonderful talk!!
Is it just me who is struck by the countless negative male comments? Especially about the fact that she hired other people to work for her? Does it bother you so much that a woman is free and self-realized professionally?
Hope you don't waste too much of your life chasing after "freedom", because when your are 50, alone and burned out you'll find it's too late. Get it our of your system, find a good man, settle down, get married and have a family. Then you'll find true happiness watching your children grow...
Can anyone write briefly what she said in 16 minutes, I need like a summary what about she talked !?
Why does almost every Ted Talk video have mouth noise issues?
But isn't going getting a bunch of people working in teams... it is true freedom if you're enforcing the same system that was forced onto you? also, where is privilege in the stratosphere of the world? people come from different places, what about those are from third world countries and come from conditions that are limiting, this ted talk although interesting was incredibly problematic in the sense that it reiterates the ideals of those who come from privilege as well as create a false utopia that people mistakenly fall for all the time...

Yessss🙌🙏🇨🇦🌎✌🏽💞
Everyone is free to do as they please. Heck you could kill someone if you wanted to with the possibility of prison. We are free with possible consequences.
I never felt freedom
But,... do you truly have free will? .....Hmmmmm
Only to a limited degree, IMO. We can choose to override certain impulses or attitudes we know would hurt others when there's no justification for hurting them? As for freedom, there's also the freedom to commit vandalism and worst - EVERY kind of worse you can imagine, and I mean EVERY. For this reason, I put human dignity above freedom. Freedom's important ONLY to the extent that it isn't used to hurt, harm, or demean the dignity of others outside the scope of defense, retaliation, or punishment (reasonable and proportionate degrees of the latter three, of course). Otherwise we'd have dangerous chaos, not even a society at all.

How Natalie?
Freedom is an ILLUSION!!! Even the perceived GOD or creator of existence could not be free. At the EXACT moment of causation GOD would become obligated to this creation to be the very BEST possible version of that God in order to achieve the BEST possible results from that creation. So really NOTHING can be 100% free lol remember absolute freedom equals uncontrolled chaos but limited parameters and preset laws equal harmony and order. Now it's obvious to see which one governs THIS reality lol
So.. become free by getting OTHER people to do your work for you. Another ridiculous TEDx talk.
How about become free by inspiring others to work with you on major projects that you couldn't possibly do by yourself. By employing people who do a better job than you to do important work, and at the same time give them meaning and purpose?!
How on earth are you going to make an impact in this world working just by yourself, doing everything yourself and having no time for family, friends, relationships and yourself?
Yeah, I'm sure that's how companies like Walmart recruits employees, by "inspiring others" to work with them on "projects" to make Sam Walton obscenely wealthy. It gives those employees "meaning" and "purpose". In other words, work for me, and you will become free by making me rich!
I'm not sure you fully understand the work I do or who I help. If you did you'd not have made this uneducated response. By the way Sam Walton had great ethics and a vision for his company that never included the way Walmart operates now. He'd likely turn in his grave
Being a boss does not equal taking away others freedom, you can be whatever kind of boss you want to be.
Where did I say that?
Never again Argentina...
You don't know what your dream is?
Imagine your freedom day...ok then thay's your dream
So it seems.
She looks like Julia Roberts
Ahh the ever evolving idea of freedom. It indeed is worth every sacrifice that could be implied. That goal must never be forgot.(*changes subject*) Now ,, let's talk about that very strange thing that is obsessed over and feared simultaneously... Influence!!!

By ordinary mind I mean a mind which is so conditioned that its not open to accept new ideas. Because whatever we think that its my personal thought of freedom or my own idea of freedom is not your personal. It seems to be so. Its an illusion. All the ideas are borrowed. Look deeply, carefully and observe. The only way out is J Krishnamurthy. And nothing else. 🙏
So you got your freedom on the back of someone else when you hired someone to do all your work...
He or she needs to feel unhappy for your hapiness...
Not quit an inspiration if you want to sacrifice someone this way
I listened until 9:20 when I figured out that the key to freedom is living off of the margin between the price of your product and the cost of the labor to produce it... How is this inspiring?!
I hope the contractors that you hired to run your business are sending you only rents money for your equipment, if not then you are the perfect example of what is wrong with with the world. The fact that you say it with a smile on your face shows how screwed up your sense of morality is.
this so white
Why are you breathing so heavy?
This video starts with a false assumption: you want to exist.
Hahaha, nicely said. But it has got a very deep meaning what you said. Nobody will want to exist if they really look inside.
She is now bound to her new idea of freedom. And it goes on until you run out of ideas.
It is so subtle, the actual freedom that only a sensitive mind is capable of understanding. Freedom is nothing most of us 99.9% know of. We think to have freedom is to do what we like. We think to have freedom is to have choices. No. Freedom is choicelessnes. Weird, right? There is only one right action. To have choices is to have confusion and conflicts in the brain. Only a complete silent mind free to observe is capable of observing what is, the fact, and out of that pure observation comes the right action. Attention, your complete attention is what is needed. Attention is like a flame which burns all that is unnecessary. The only action. Its far from an ordinary mind.

How did you hire people with nearly $17? Did you live on the street. Such not helpful video
Not wise at all, she just wants money to do stuff but without working
Perfect life would be living in Europe country. As u already live there u have no dream of freedom 🤣
The amount of white privilege in this Ted talk is uncanny. At the very least she uses her money and skills for amusement instead of gaming the system and abusing those less fortunate.
That's quite frankly the most ridiculous take, but it's your opinion. What amusement did you see in me flying home to be with my dying father? Or the fact that I pay my team well, to do a better job than me, working on meaningful projects that help aspiring and established entrepreneurs to create more impact in this world, while freeing up more time to spend quality time with their loved ones?
@@NatalieSisson1 I searched how to have true freedom and it’s the 3rd video in a row that I watched and I’m far away from getting my freedom and my thoughts are exactly the same as you I don’t wanna own a house because it holds you back and I wanna travel the world / always on the move and seeing the world and making a living online. And I see nothing wrong with it. Because of you many people are not jobless you’ve created jobs for people. White privileged or not. You have to do something with your life right instead of seeing the negatives for everything. That comment person doesn’t know what he’s talking about
