​

He didn’t wait for permission.
​He didn’t wait for the “right time.”
He didn’t wait for a better car, more money, or a green light from anyone.

On 4 Jan 2019, a 47-year-old Malaysian contractor named Nursulhi Rahim hopped into his beat-up Perodua Kelisa — the same one he used to carry cement and sand — and drove across 25 countries.
🚗💨

Not in a 4x4. Not in a campervan.
​In a car most people wouldn’t take on a KL road trip.

He scrubbed toilets.
Cleaned drains.
Repaired houses.

All to fund a dream most people talk about — but never chase.

Let me ask you this 👇🏻
​While he was building his escape, what were you doing?

Updating spreadsheets?
Sitting through back-to-back Zoom calls?
Watching your passion rot while telling yourself, “I’ll start soon”?

Here’s the harsh truth:
If you don’t move now, nothing changes.
​Not your freedom. Not your time. Not your income.

So here’s the real question:
​What’s stopping YOU from building your way out?

🚀 Freedom in Action

💸From $55K in Debt to $3.4K/Month on TikTok

When Megan Baur found herself drowning in $55,000 of credit card debt, she wasn’t splurging on handbags or holidays.
She was just trying to keep her kids alive.

What followed wasn’t just a financial pivot — it was a complete identity shift.

With two kids facing serious medical needs, therapy bills stacking up, and no safety net, Megan turned to TikTok—not to go viral… but to survive.

And what started as raw storytelling soon became:
✅ A community
​ ✅ A support system
​ ✅ And… a $3,400/month income stream

💡 Why this matters to you:
​Megan didn’t start with capital. She didn’t wait for a business plan. She used her story to create time—
Time to breathe.
Time to heal.
Time to build.

💬 Let’s Talk

Look… this guy didn’t have much.
But he had grit, a goal, and the guts to say:
​“I’m done living a life that feels like slow death.”

Snowstorms. Breakdowns. Border issues.
He faced them all—because freedom was worth it.

So ask yourself:
​If a toilet-scrubbing contractor can drive across the world in a 20-year-old Kelisa…
What the hell are you waiting for?

You don’t need permission.
You just need to start.
