As a young Indian woman, I was afraid I would become a slave to tradition...tradition that disrespected the rights of women. I said NO, and instead began my journey to create the only freedom that would allow me to live the life that I chose. Economic freedom gives us the foundation to live a life of choice. Freedom of choice is what we all strive for. The choice to love who we want, to do meaningful work, and to be happy and free. To truly be the BOSS of our own lives. Can it be done? I'm Moneeka Sawyer. I did it, and you can, too.

Autonomy in choosing life partners correlates with happiness, challenging the norms of arranged marriages in traditional societies.

Financial independence is pivotal for personal freedom, offering a pathway to make choices unbound by cultural or societal expectations.

Happiness plateaus with income at a specific threshold; beyond it, freedom to choose and community engagement are key to enduring joy.
