You’ll Never Find Peace Until You Fight This Battle - Steven Pressfield

Описание: In this episode of Open Book, I sit down with the legendary Steven Pressfield to talk about resistance, ego, war, art, and the daily battle between your ears. If you’ve ever wrestled with self-doubt, ambition, or the calling to do something bigger with your life, this conversation is your playbook.
