About the Book

As a humanities professional, your skills are in demand. Despite the challenges of a competitive job market, the unique skill set that you possess is highly transferable to various industries and roles. Knowing how to position your creativity, knowledge and empathy is vital for achieving meaningful employment and professional growth.   Hustles for Humanists provides a detailed roadmap for humanities professionals who want to leverage their valuable skills to find or create meaningful work. Drawing from her experiences as an academic turned entrepreneur, Erica Machulak gives practical advice on how to connect with your core values, market yourself, build relationships with clients, and negotiate fair compensation.   This is an essential field guide for finding work that aligns with the core values of your humanities scholarship and practice. It demonstrates how the professional strengths of the humanities can be drawn upon to create fairer, more just and equitable entrepreneurial approaches – whether you’re launching a business, job hunting, or looking for inspiration. Hustles for Humanists helps you unlock the value of your humanities practice and explore exciting new pathways to achieving economic stability both within and beyond academia.

Review :
"A road map for entrepreneurs who hate the word entrepreneur! This book affirms the value and need for humanistic work in all industries and provides clear and actionable steps for humanists to pursue meaningful work-and get paid for it!" - Annie Maxfield (lead creator, ImaginePhD) "This is the book I needed when I started my own business! In this clear, compelling book, Machulak balances humanistic values, illustrative case studies, and actionable advice to create a valuable tool for any scholars thinking about entrepreneurship as part of their own career paths." - Katina L. Rogers (author of Putting the Humanities PhD to Work and founder of Inkcap Consulting) "Hustles for Humanists shatters myths and empowers humanists to reclaim their agency, leverage their unique skills, and transform their expertise into meaningful work. This essential guide is for anyone ready to think boldly about their future, expand their opportunities, and build a business that reflects their values and vision." - Christine Henseler (copresident of the Center for Humanities Communication)
