I've spent years thinking about power. About control. About what it actually means to build something that belongs to you.As a content creator, I've learned something important: the platforms you build on aren't yours. And that matters more than you probably think.In this episode, I'm sharing what I've learned about how these systems actually work. Why I made the choice to take my power back. And what it means to refuse dependency.This isn't about telling you what to do. It's about how I think about autonomy, control, and the choices I've made to protect them.If you've ever wondered why I do things the way I do, this explains it.For more of Beatrix, go here [https://beacons.ai/beatrixvale]
