SLU BRU Hosts The All Who Wander Choose Adventure Tour, Featuring Author Anne Taylor Hartzell on January 20

 
SLU BRU, South Lake Union’s neighborhood taproom and community hub, will host a special book tour stop for The All Who Wander Choose Adventure Tour on Monday, January 20, from 6–8 p.m. The evening will welcome author, podcast host, and Hip Travel Mama Anne Taylor Hartzell for a gathering to invite conversation, connection, and reflection on what it means to choose adventure.

Centered on Hartzell’s book, All Who Wander: A Guide to Finding Your Path in Seasons of Change, the event invites guests to explore the Choose Adventure Mindset™ through a short reading, guided conversation, and Q&A. Hartzell will share how this mindset can help individuals navigate seasons of change, gain clarity on what matters most, and take intentional steps forward into the year ahead.

“Choosing adventure is not about having all the answers. It is about being willing to pause, get honest about where you are, and take one intentional step forward,” said Anne Taylor Hartzell. “This event is an invitation to slow down, connect with others, and start the year with clarity and purpose.”

The evening will include beverages and lights bites such as Truffle Parmesan Deviled Eggs, Mediterranean Polenta Bites, an Antipasto Platter, and more provided by SLU BRU, operated by Gourmondo Co. Guests will also have time to mingle and have copies of their book signed. Hartzell will share ways to continue engaging with the Choose Adventure mindset beyond the event as attendees look ahead to 2026.

About Anne Taylor Hartzell
Anne Taylor Hartzell didn’t write All Who Wander: A Guide to Finding Your Path in Seasons of Change because she had everything figured out. She wrote it while living the questions, listening to others who were doing the same.

As an author, keynote speaker, podcast host, and leadership communications strategist, Anne weaves together stories from her own life and from the founders, creatives, and leaders she interviews, exploring how people move through fear, navigate change, and take small, brave steps forward. Those conversations shaped her Choose Adventure Mindset™, a framework she uses to coach leaders in communication and speak to teams navigating what’s next.

She is also the founder of the award-winning platform Hip Travel Mama, which has inspired thousands of families to explore the world together. Anne is passionate about lifting up women as they navigate seasons of change and step confidently into what’s next.

All Who Wander is a book for anyone navigating life’s in-between seasons and wondering what comes next.
