104. The Lifestyle of Freedom: Nature, Travel and Choice

In this episode, Beki takes you behind the scenes of what freedom truly means when you step away from traditional OT systems. From witnessing the beauty of a lunar eclipse in North Wales to world schooling her children in Kenya and Australia, she shares how creating an online occupational therapy business gave her the choice to live deliberately, in alignment with her values.

You will discover:

  • Why OTs often feel trapped by annual leave restrictions and rigid schedules, and how to break free

  • The power of nature and travel in reconnecting to your purpose as an Occupational Therapist

  • How building an online business allows you to design a lifestyle of choice, flexibility, and financial independence

  • Real-life examples of replacing burnout and bureaucracy with awe, adventure, and aligned work

  • Practical mindset shifts OTs need to move from “I can’t” to “I get to”

Beki opens up about her move from urban Derbyshire to a working farm in North Wales, how she used her online business to travel the world with her children, and why control over what, when, where and with whom you work is the truest definition of wealth for occupational therapists.

Whether you are an OT dreaming of leaving behind the rigid NHS system, craving more time with family, or longing to align your career with your values, this conversation will show you that freedom is not just possible, it is waiting for you.
