After parting ways with her longtime management and record companies, Kesha is feeling free.

The pop star shared a photo of herself posing nude in a sunny vacation spot to Instagram on Monday, shortly after Variety reported she left Kemosabe and RCA Records as well as management following the end of her legal battle with producer Lukasz "Dr. Luke" Gottwald in June.

"Coming back home to me," wrote Kesha, 36, in the post's caption with a red heart emoji.

Last week, the "Praying" singer-songwriter's contract with Gottwald's Kemosabe label, distributed through RCA Records, came to an end, per Variety. Additionally, the outlet reported she has "amicably" stopped working with Vector Management.

The move came about six months after Kesha and Gottwald, 50, agreed to resolve his defamation lawsuit out of court ahead of its scheduled trial — nearly a decade after she first sued the Grammy-winning producer, accusing him of sexual, emotional and physical abuse.

Upon the settlement, both parties released public statements via Instagram, with Kesha claiming she "cannot recount" the details of the alleged sexual abuse she faced at the hands of Gottwald as he wishes her "well" and continues to deny the accusation.

"Only God knows what happened that night. As I have always said, I cannot recount everything that happened," wrote Kesha. "I am looking forward to closing the door on this chapter of my life and beginning a new one. I wish nothing but peace to all parties involved."

Kesha initially sued Gottwald on claims that he drugged and sexually assaulted her in 2005. He denied the claims and filed a countersuit the same year. In 2016, Kesha's claims were dismissed by a judge.

"While I appreciate Kesha again acknowledging that she cannot recount what happened that night in 2005, I am absolutely certain that nothing happened," wrote Gottwald in his statement.

"I never drugged or assaulted her and would never do that to anyone. For the sake of my family, I have vigorously fought to clear my name for nearly 10 years," continued the music producer. "It is Time for me to put this difficult matter behind me and move on with my life. I wish Kesha well."

One week before Gottwald's defamation lawsuit against Kesha was set to go to trial, the New York Court of Appeals reportedly ruled that the Grammy-nominated producer meets the qualifications of a public figure. The ruling meant he would have to "prove the allegedly defamatory statements were made with ‘actual malice,'" the court wrote, per Variety.

In May, Kesha released her latest album Gag Order, largely written about her struggles over the past few years. "I really feel like this album gave the complete view of who I am to my animals, to my fans, to the listener. I really have this feeling of peace, and I feel complete," she told PEOPLE in a June interview.

"I know Gag Order is a more emotional journey, perhaps, than some of my other albums, but I think as a whole body of work, I feel so satisfied with what people can see as me talking about who I am," continued Kesha at the time.
