10 Week Opt-Out Challenge
Starting Oct 15, members will participate in weekly live presentations and Q&A about how to exit the control grid. This Opt-Out series will last until Dec 31 helping you start your freedom resolutions early. Can't make each talk, no problem. They'll all be available on demand.
Presenter: Derrick Broze
Derrick Broze will break down how individuals who value privacy stay free in a world requiring digital IDs for work and travel. How do those who stand for individual liberty and human respect maintain such principles in a world of constant biometric surveillance?
Presenter: John Bush
Exiting the financial control grid and building real, lasting sovereignty. Through his 4 C Strategy — Confidence & Courage, Currency, Counter-Economics, and Community — you’ll learn practical systems for creating independent income, private trade, and unstoppable networks of freedom in the digital age.
