In this thought-provoking episode of Live Sustainably, Anastasia explores one of the deepest powers we all possess — freedom — not as something granted externally, but as something that lives inside each of us. We often think of freedom as something to fight for—defined by borders, rights, or politics. But true freedom is not dictated by external forces. It cannot be taken away. Even in the most restricted circumstances, we remain free in our minds and hearts. This video reflects on that inner freedom — and how it shapes the way we live, choose, and care for the world around us.

​

This episode looks at:

• The difference between external and internal freedom

• How freedom shapes our ability to live sustainably

• Why conscious, self-directed choices are essential for long-term change

• The connection between personal responsibility and planetary care​

​

Freedom is not just a personal experience — it is a foundation for building a more thoughtful, resilient, and sustainable future.
