Jeff Goins: Be a thriving artist (not a starving artist) – Love Your Work, Episode 79
You’ve heard it before. The story of the starving artist. You may even believe it yourself. You may think that to keep your creative integrity, you have to give up on making money.
Jeff Goins (@goinswriter) is returning to the podcast today to tell you about why that’s not true at all. In fact, instead of being a starving artist, you can be a thriving artist.
