in the 2019 Scythe series the grim-reaper like group known as scythes are urged to live a simple life with just bare necessities. They are all fairly good at following that mandate and lead a simple life style.  The best example is one who gave up a palace for a simple shack.
Emerson says in his Nature essay, "Maugre all his impertinent griefs, he shall be glad with me.” Maugre means in spite of, so in spite of griefs and imperfections he shall still be glad. basically saying be happy no matter how simple and imperfect.
Both Emerson and the Scythes live simple lives and are urged to be glad despite imperfections. Also even though there are countless griefs each of them stay glad and positive.

In the 2013 movie 'The Wolverine' the title character is self sufficient. In said movie the character Logan has retreated to living like a wild animal, hunting his own food and making his own shelter. He thrives just living off what he can find himself. he marks his territory, he protects himself and his assets, and he thrives off what he can do.
Emerson says, "What I must do is all that concerns me." He is saying that what other people want doesn't matter to him. He is saying what other people need doesn't matter to him. He is saying what other people ask of him doesn't matter to him. He is just going to do what he needs to do.
Both men have vowed to live on exactly what they need. They do not care what's going on around them. They will do what they need for themselves and no more. Logan is the ultimate self-reliance human. Only animals that literally have no one to help them are more self-reliant.

In the Mandalorian TV show the title character is a prime example of intuition. Space cowboy, Din Djarin, armed with his nearly invincible armor tracks down the galaxy's most wanted, for a fee of course. He is charged to hunt down a child and return the baby to a shattered fragment of the once mighty Galactic Empire. True to his reputation Djarin finds the child and delivers it. However instead of just moving on to the next job like his mind and reason tell him to, he goes back for the baby. He storms the complex and rescues the child from whatever horrific experimentation he was subject to.
In his essay, Self-Reliance, Emerson states, “Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string.” This is basically saying that there is a sound, solid iron string that every man's heart is attuned to.  Iron is strong and unwavering, Emerson is saying that each man must have a similar heart to be a good person.
Where Emerson has a iron string, Djarin has a beskar heart. Djarin went against every shred of reason and critical thinking to save the child. The move made no sense and it labeled him an outlaw, but it was the right thing to do.

In the hit show Wandavision the title character, Wanda Maximoff, has taken control of a small town and used its inhabitants to play out her depressed sorrow fueled fantasies.  Instead of making her feel better the stress and constant energy to keep up such an act, plus the pressure from outside influences cause her depression to worsen and go into a crazy spiral. In the end she released the people and retreated into the wilderness to be happy and alone.
Thoreau did a similar maneuver. He retreated into the wilderness near Walden Lake. He did so to remove himself from society and the corruption of people. He found his experience enlightening, and he spoke very highly of his time.
Both Wanda and Thoreau escaped into nature after society failed them. Thoreau was escaping corruption and filth. Wanda was escaping her depression and the fear of what she could do to other people.

In 2015 Lauren Alaina released a song titled Road Less Traveled.  In the song she sings about breaking free and following your own morals and doing what you want. She sings about not following what people want you to do, and about rebelling against society's vision.
In Emerson's Self-Reliance he highlights the fact that society is trying it's hardest to make every member the exact same. He explicitly says, "Society everywhere is in conspiracy against the manhood(individuality) of every one of its members.
Alaina saying, "You won't make yourself a name if you follow the rules history gets made when you're acting a fool." Is very similar sentiment for what Emerson is saying. Don't bend to what society and people want, do your own thing and make your own path.
