What if wandering is how you find your way?

Whether you’re just starting out or starting over, All Who Wander is your invitation to choose adventure over fear.

When Anne Taylor Hartzell found herself in her own season of change, she set out to understand how people actually navigate it. She conducted dozens of in-depth interviews with leaders, founders, creatives, and parents who had moved through major transitions, from career pivots and new ventures to empty nests and changes they didn’t choose. Comparing their stories side by side, she looked for the decisions, fears, and turning points that the people who navigated change well had in common.

Those recurring patterns became the Choose Adventure Mindset™, a five-step framework for moving through change with clarity, courage, and momentum, and the heart of this book.

Inside, you’ll find:

  • Real stories from people who’ve navigated major transitions

  • A practical framework to guide what’s next

  • Journal prompts to reframe fear, align with your values, and take intentional steps forward

For new grads, career changers, new parents, empty nesters, and leaders guiding teams through change. No passport required.
