SUNSHINE COAST, QLD – Sunshine Coast multidisciplinary artist and writer Ilana McBain today released What Does Freedom Mean To Me?, the first title in her new Happy Cat Philosophy series and a bold expansion of her growing creative profile. Delivered as a digital PDF, the book offers a contemporary exploration of emotional freedom, personal agency, and the patterns that shape modern relationships and identity.
The book presents 15 key forms of freedom, including freedom from comparison, fear, financial anxiety, and self-sabotage, alongside the freedom to rest, reinvent oneself, and live without the weight of external expectations. McBain blends psychology, storytelling, art, and candid philosophical insight to create a guide aimed at readers seeking clarity, confidence, and emotional resilience. Designed for both adults and young readers, the work positions freedom not as a lofty concept but as a practical foundation for living with greater honesty, stability, and self-respect.
“Most of our pain comes from misunderstanding ourselves and the people we love. I wanted to create a guide that feels like a conversation, one that helps readers see their patterns clearly and choose themselves with confidence,” said Ilana McBain.
As an emerging voice on the Sunshine Coast, McBain is known for her multidisciplinary approach spanning visual art, pop culture, design, and creative writing. This latest release reflects her increasing focus on themes of emotional wellbeing, human behaviour, and personal transformation. The Happy Cat Philosophy series will continue exploring essential life concepts through accessible language and emotionally engaging storytelling.
What Does Freedom Mean To Me? is available now as a downloadable PDF through McBain’s online shop, offering immediate access for readers in Australia and around the world.
