At The Table with Luke Haverty 013 | Anne Mahlum, Founder of Solidcore & Back on My Feet - Building an Empire With Purpose
Welcome back to At the Table. Today’s guest is Anne Mahlum. She’s the founder of Solidcore and Back on My Feet, two companies built on one belief: people can change their lives when given the chance.
Back on My Feet started from a personal place. Anne grew up watching her dad struggle with addiction. She saw how hard it is to rebuild a life and how powerful it can be when someone believes in you. That insight led her to start a running club for people experiencing homelessness which grew into a thriving, national nonprofit helping thousands across the country.
A few years later, she emptied her savings to open the first Solidcore studio. No safety net, just a clear vision and a lot of grit. She grew it to nearly 2,000 employees, hundreds of thousands of clients and in 2023 sold the company for over $300 million.. Sharing millions with her team on the way out.
In this episode, we talk about the journey behind both businesses, how you can find your own unique purpose & break through fear as well as what it means to forge a path as a woman in spaces that weren’t necessarily built for you.
Anne caught absolute fire in this one.. our mic might never be the same (: She’s a mentor of mine and someone I hope you can learn from too.
Big love.
