Steven Pressfield is a bestselling author of a number of both fiction and nonfiction books, such as The Legend of Bagger Vance and Tides of War. He also has bestselling classics on creativity, such as the War of Art and Turning Pro. 

I have read and recommended many of Steven’s books to my audience and fellow creatives over the years and am indebted to him, particularly for his work in The War of Art. Our recent conversation on my show focused on his most recent book, Put Your Ass Where Your Heart Wants to Be, as well as a sneak preview into another book that will be released later this year!

Enjoy!
