Anne Ruthmann

Anne Ruthmann's hometown is Motown, but these days she can be found waking up at the crack of dawn in New York City coffee houses or escaping to travel the world whenever possible. She left predictable corporate life in 2001 to pursue a multi-passionate creative life as a musician, photographer, writer, reiki teacher, and business consultant for people who want to create a living on their own terms. Her TEDx Talk shares her journey of answering the question "What Would You Attempt If You Knew You Could Not Fail?" and her journey continues to prove that anything is possible. Anne's first book, Pricing Workbook for Creatives, provides a step-by-step roadmap to valuing our individuality and creativity, while outlining a path to making a living as a full-time creative professional. She keeps an emergency kit of dark chocolate and palo santo in her purse at all times. Find her on all the social media Twit-Face-Insta-Linked things @anneruthmann.
