Please forgive me if this is a dumb question, but is there a way to turn off

I don't think it is a dumb question, because authentication tends to be "sticky", and there are no directives like
AuthType None
or
Require None
or
Satisfy nothing

If you authentication is not set at the document root level ("/"), then you could try the following or some variation :

Alias /secure/my_file.html /var/www/htdocs/free/my_file.html

<Location /secure>
  (authentication)
...
</Location>

<Directory /var/www/htdocs/free>
(no authentication)
Allow from all
</Directory>
