Jeff Leisawitz burns with a mission to inspire songwriters, authors and screenwriters to amp up their creativity and shine in the world. As an award winning musician/ producer, college songwriting prof, critically acclaimed author, distributed filmmaker and internationally in-demand coach for creatives, Jeff has devoted his life to creativity. At its best, creativity is a way for us to be seen, expressed and connected. With this philosophy as a guiding principle, Jeff has helped empower countless people to tap deeply into their creative hearts to live richer, more fulfilling lives. “Not F*ing Around: The No Bullsh*t Guide for Getting Your Creative Dreams Off the Ground” is Jeff's first book. Top 3 Takeaways Leadership is personal—Like any creative act, you pour yourself into your leadership and you open yourself to both positive and not-so-positive reactions from others. Creativity is a choice—a series of choices actually; while many leaders draw upon similar tools and techniques, their stylistic choices can produce dramatically different results. Creativity is energy—being true to yourself and finding harmony in your leadership allows that energy to flow smoothly. From the Source “Unlike a lot of other endeavors in the world—if you do it well—you're really putting yourself into your creation whether it's a painting or a poem or a song or whatever you're into.” “When you're creating anything, it is essentially choice after choice after choice after choice.“ “The truth is there's a much bigger intelligence going on out there.” “Fascination is essentially a sense of being sort of enthralled by what the world is or could be. This is a sense of curiosity, a sense of possibility.” “You need to be true to yourself and what you're doing, because that's where the energy really comes in.” “By loving what you're doing, it will fuel you, focus you, and motivate you.” Connect with Jeff Website: https://jeffleisawitz.com/ Twitter: @nfajeff LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffleisawitz/

You’re a creative person, right? So… what the “F” are you doing with your life to prove it? Fortunately, we know of someone with a creative approach... which includes the title of his book. We’ll talk to Jeff Leisawitz, (Lie-Zah-Witz) author of “No F*ing Around: The No BullSh*t Guide for Getting Your Creative Dreams Off the Ground. Website: jeffleisawitz.com

Jeff Leisawitz teaches us how to tap into our own amazing creativity! Creativity coach Jeff Leisawitz burns with a mission: to inspire writers, artists, musicians and people everywhere to tap into their creativity, to heal their hearts and to shine in the world. As his book, Not F*ing Around: The No Bullsh*t Guide for Getting Your Creative Dreams Off the Ground, tells us: Can’t quite get your creative juices flowing? Is your day job sucking your soul? Are you fizzled out before you put the finishing touches on your amazing creation? Maybe it's time to pause, step back and rethink who you are and what your purpose and passions are. Listen to our podcast and you may just come away with a whole new outlook on your amazingly creative self, just waiting to be discovered! Enjoy. Jeff has an idea for you: The creative side of your brain can fill you with renewed energy We start out as kids full of ideas and creativity. We play our games and make up our realities. It's how we learn to be humans. (As an anthropologist, I've studied this extensively.) Then, slowly over time, we are told to focus, stop wandering, leave that creative energy outside, stop playing so much and become a rather sad soul. Jeff wants you to find yourself again—and he believes it is all in your creativity. By pulling back the curtain on the creative process, his new book tells you how. Jeff reminds us that we are all potential creative super stars In our podcast today, Jeff challenges us with these inspiring words: “It’s time to get off the couch and get on the path. It’s time to tap into the cosmic heartbeat that thumps in your chest and shines from your soul. It’s time to be seen, expressed and healed.”  Sounds exciting! It is exciting to listen to Jeff and how he found his own personal way. Our conversation reminds me of the pleasure I had when I would take off on Tuesdays and head over to my friend Mary’s place to oil paint for a day. I emerged re-energized and literally transformed. I miss the day, the paints and Mary. One of my favorite quotes about Jeff's book: “Not F*ing Around is a great pocket-guide for the long road to achieving one’s own definition of success. Deep thoughts masquerading as light-hearted anecdotes and challenges.”                                                                 —Lori Deschene, Author and Founder of Tiny Buddha Who Is Jeff Leisawitz? Jeff is a creativity coach informed by Neuro-Linguistic Re-Patterning techniques, and an adjunct faculty member at Pacific Lutheran University in Seattle. He is also an award-winning musician/producer and an internationally distributed screenwriter and director who has devoted his life to the art of creativity.
