The Economy Creators Anthology brings together 11 individuals who are doing exactly that. Through their personal stories, experiences, ideas, and perspectives, the 2026 co-authors explore what it means to recognize the value already within you—your interests, talents, knowledge, relationships, experiences, and desires—and begin building from there.

These are not eleven stories about following the same path. In fact, that’s the point. Each contributor has built, changed, expanded, or reimagined life and work in a way that reflects something uniquely their own. Together, their stories demonstrate the heart of Economy Creators:
Lead Yourself → Lead Your Economy → Lead Others.
​
Published by IrisBlu Publishing, this anthology is more than a collection of chapters. It is a celebration of people who are choosing to build rather than simply consume—and an invitation to consider what becomes possible when you begin creating a YOU-Shaped Economy of your own.
