FlowCast #26 | Jordan Porter
What a great podcast this was with Jordan Porter!
Recounting tales of the intense flow of extreme sports when your life is teetering on a slab of wood and debating the concept of achieving mastery in one field versus becoming a skilled jack-of-all-trades.
There were many laughs to be had during this conversation but Jordan also has a deep understanding of his own experience of flow both in physical and creative realms as he’s been an adrenaline junkie his whole life and has been honing the craft of writing since elementary school.
It’s always a fascinating journey to find the similarities and differences between these flow-inducing activities and Jordan delivered across the board while also giving great advice to anyone looking to start their own business.
