Free Resources

It would just be cruel to profile these truly awesome folks living an "AUTHENTIC AND CREATIVE LIFESTYLE" and not give you some tools to make this happen in your own world. Although, I'm not insisting that you to quit your day job to join a rock band or paint portraits BUT if you choose to follow your dreams and this path of non-conformity, here are some great resources.

PS: If you come across others, please contact me and I will update the list. Also, tell me your story, you may be the next badass that I profile. ;)
