Paolo, you often emphasize that independence is something everyone should pursue, not just entrepreneurs. Could you explain what you mean by that?

Absolutely, independence isn’t just for entrepreneurs or freelancers. Independence is a mindset, a way of being, and it belongs to everyone, no matter their role, job title, or career path. When I talk about independence, I’m talking about ownership of one’s own life, an attitude that says, “I’m the driver here, no matter what my job description says.”

Independence is owning your mindset, your work, your growth, no matter the environment. It’s realizing that you have the power to shape your life, even within constraints. You can choose to bring innovation and courage into any job. You can approach your role with creativity, ask big questions, and bring a sense of purpose to every task. And when you live with that kind of independence? You start to create impact far beyond the boundaries of your job description. You’re not just taking orders—you’re adding value, you’re leading from within.

Independence is for the ones who know they are not defined by a job title or a paycheck. It’s for anyone willing to take responsibility for their growth, their ideas, their purpose. Because here’s the thing: true independence isn’t about working alone. It’s about being whole, wherever you are. It’s about showing up with integrity, with curiosity, with the fire to contribute something only you can give.

In the end, independence is about the courage to be yourself, in any context. It’s a commitment to authenticity, to constant learning, to breaking free from the mental chains that tell you to play small or fit in. Independence is a choice, one that doesn’t depend on your position or your title. It’s for the bold, the dreamers, the ones ready to live life on their own terms, even within a larger system. Because real independence? It’s about the strength to carry your own vision, wherever life takes you.
