Ryan Ansin ~ Entrepreneur & Advisor
Per the page, Current Projects, there are a few adventures occupying major chunks of my waking hours, dedicated to good work. Before and after the tasks necessary to keep them all on track, my priority is my children. That said, I am looking out at new peaks. Two mentors of mine tell me the same thing. They both say, one in French and one in English: Ryan Ansin: You’ll live more lifetimes by choosing the next highest peak, instead of climbing the same mountain with ever-deepening footprints. I tend to agree.
The macro Adventure: Serving Real Life in America. Children are overmedicated. Parents are overstressed. All consumers (the worst word for fellow humans, but how we’re considered by the engine of our economy) have reached breaking points financially and interpersonally. This starts with our excessive treatment of the individual instead of our relational nature. After rebuilding my own health, I am on a mission to find fellow humans who care to live, work, build, and raise families relationally. There’s a great deal of opportunity here to do well for ourselves while treating each other with incredible care.
To this end, I have partnered with amazing friends to inspect existing business models and build interconnected companies who help educate, reconnect, and de-stress families near and far at price-points they can afford.
