About Anne Mahlum
Anne Mahlum is a founder, serial entrepreneur and philanthropist. Her passion is to create businesses in the health, wellness and experiential spaces aimed at helping people be the best versions of themselves.
In 2007 she founded Back on My Feet, a national non-profit organization that uses running as a vehicle to help those experiencing homelessness become empowered to change their lives. To date Back on My Feet has helped thousands of individuals achieve employment and more self-sufficient living.
She also founded [solidcore] in 2013 and grew it into one of the country’s most successful boutique fitness companies. In nine years, she raised more than $200M to grow [solidcore] to over 100 locations across the U.S. before exiting [solidcore] in April 2023 and shared millions with her employees after the sale. Her newest venture is Ambition, a fitness and wellness concept that launched in New York City in 2023.
