Ruth-Anne Eisler studied music and became a professional classical musician early in her career. She reflects on those younger years as being a difficult time in which she spent a lot of time alone practicing and scrambling to get paid work. In order to gain greater stability and security, she turned to other areas of interest, law, and writing, obtaining a paralegal certificate. After several years working in that field, she wanted to do something more that would also enable her to be available to her young son, so she started her own corporate communications business. She credits working with a coach toward helping her to make decisions that moved her forward and into action.
In this episode we discuss:
- How Ruth-Anne’s first career was studying music as a professional classical musician.
- Her experience as a musician and discovering the downsides including practicing alone and having to scramble to find paid work.
- How she learned to gain greater stability and security by turning to areas of interest she had previously pushed aside like law and writing.
- Her love of learning, and how she expects she will always be taking a course of some sort.
- The transition she made into legal research and then her move away from legal research when her son was born and she wanted to be home with him, leading her into launching her own corporate communications business.
- How Ruth-Anne credits her dad, a civil engineer, as a role model because of his skillful planning and his ability to put plans into action, even if it took him time to accomplish them.
