Yes, sure. Though don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. Most of this lifestyle inspiration genre is about doing things only single and debt-free people can do. I don't think that means the advice is irrelevant for people with responsibilities. I think you could take the same content and re-work it for a different audience and it would remain just as valid.

For example, many people with kids in cities really struggle with schools, affordable housing and childcare. Cultivating more financial and location independence can help solve all those issues by moving away from expensive areas where there's extreme competition for good schools and where you have no extended family support. And many people with families have their children on a very narrow program preparing them for a certain type of urban success. But I have a young nephew who lives in the countryside being raised by two former high-powered professionals turned farmers. There are other options and ways of life out there but it takes some "inverted thinking" to find them.

This is also what came to my mind when reading this article. Not everyone is capable of pivoting their life because of dependents and other inflexible obligations.
