Ep. 104 – Slamming into Fear w/ Ian French

Ian French — a.k.a. IF — is a poet with a troubled youth. He rebelled against authority, did drugs and got into all kinds of trouble. Before his antics caught up to him, he started a business with his brother in his 20’s and would go on to build one of the most successful and largest direct marketing agencies in the country. Not being one to rest on his laurels, IF discovered slam poetry by chance at age 50 and fell in love with the discipline. It was what his overly curious, ADHD mind was craving for his whole life. Now, he’s a well-respected spoken-word artist, competing and performing all over the place.
