Becoming Unbound

Becoming Unbound
Podcast Description
Welcome to Becoming Unbound! I’m Carley Butler—a teacher turned podcast manager and freedom chaser extraordinaire. After 10 years in the classroom, I decided to break free from the system, take a leap of faith, and create a life that feels aligned, exciting, and unbound. Now, I’m here to help you do the same!
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the grind of a 9-5, overwhelmed by life’s expectations, or just dreaming of a life where you call the shots, then you’re in the right place.
This is your space to explore what it really means to break free—whether that’s ditching the corporate grind, homeschooling your kids, building financial independence, or just finding freedom from those old patterns that hold you back.
Each week, we’ll chat about real, raw, and inspiring stories, practical tips, and those little mindset shifts that make a huge difference. So grab your coffee (or matcha, if that’s your vibe), and let’s dive into the messy, magical journey of creating a life that feels like YOU.
Because guess what? Freedom isn’t just a destination—it’s a way of living. Let’s get unbound together! 💖✨

What if you stopped waiting for the “perfect time”… and just freaking did it anyway? In this week’s episode of Becoming Unbound, I (Carley Butler!) close out Season One with a solo episode straight from the heart. I’m sharing what it’s really been like building this podcast from a wild little dream into a fully alive, messy, magical reality. From recording in my living room studio to pulling late-night edits while launching a business—this season has been a leap of faith in every sense. And that’s what this episode is all about: doing the dang thing even when you’re scared, even when it’s messy, and especially when you have no clue what’s next. This one’s for every dreamer with a fire in their belly.
Season Two? She’s coming in hot—but first, some sunshine and rest 🌞
