Ep 3 Anne Ruthmann: Musician and photographer turned creative business consultant and Reiki Master practitioner

Today's guest is Anne Ruthmann: Musician and photographer turned creative business consultant and Reiki Master practitioner

Anne talks about how each step of her path happened organically. She talks about how being open to possibilities and opportunities helped shape her business today. We also get into a ton of the marketable skills she gained as an artist and how it relates to her bsuiness now.

Some of the notable questions and thoughts:
1. How shooting film helped her ask for money
2. How learning what goes into pricing helps you ask for what you need to survive and thrive
3. Photography helped her develop awareness and a keen sense of observation which is elemental in Reiki
4. How networking and auditioning are the same skills
5.Don't be afraid to fail because failure equals learning and the ability to do better the next time.
