Pompadour dispenses oddball but earnest advice—on public speaking, hygiene, taxes, and enjoying life—while celebrating local culture and Florida’s charms.

Thoughts on Resistance in that War of Art as well as where it crops up in whatever we do

What up home skillets? I stopped letting AI write these descriptions, though professional... they don't accurately represent the energy of these episodes. Within this one, I pontificate on the idea Stephen Pressfield has in "The War of Art" and where I still find myself finding resistance cropping up all these years after reading Pressfield's book(s) for the first time(s).    Although I can't be too specific about the ideas in the book, I rather share with you what stayed resonate with me in day to day life. Also listen for some jokes and inspo for repping your artsy frens.    Have the best day and thanks for listening
