This week’s episode is a coaching call with Artist Academy member Brian Fritz. Brian is an artist at the beginning of his art journey, and we all know how mentally taxing that time can be. The beginning months or years of starting any business are extra exciting, hopeful, and frustrating.

This week’s episode of the Artist Academy Podcast is all about the things that influence my art business but are not exactly business-type tasks. It’s no coincidence that when my non-work life is in check, my productivity seems to be at its highest.
