Welcome to Episode 8 of The Rewriters.

Today’s episode is with Marianne Cantwell, author of Be A Free Range Human, founder of Free Range Humans and a TEDx speaker. Her talk The Hidden Power Of Not Always Fitting In has over half a million views and was named by Entrepreneur.com as one of the “Top 10 TED talks to watch to overcome fear of failure”.

Marianne left her corporate job over a decade ago and grew a successful business (during a recession!) that allowed her to spend years travelling the world with everything she needed in her laptop. Her work helps thousands of people all over the world to create a life and business that doesn’t compromise who they are. Her work and ideas have been featured in Business Insider, Inc.com, BBC World, The Guardian, Psychologies magazine, Forbes Business Week and more. Her book, Be A Free Range Human, was a huge inspiration for me personally and professionally – I consider it essential reading for anyone thinking about quitting the 9-5 and creating a different kind of work life.

During our conversation Marianne shares her own story and explains why we should celebrate our differences, find our secret superpowers and work with greater ease. She also turns the idea of ‘staying in your lane’ on its head.
