If you told me in my twenties that being rigorous about my schedule would be a major differentiator in the success of my creative work, I would have said, you're crazy. You can't put creativity in a box like that, I thought. In my mind, schedules only confined the creative process. Today, my thoughts on this have completely 180'd, and I firmly believe that setting a schedule can be your biggest ally as a creator. On today's show I break down how your schedule is actually your biggest ally.

Career transitions are often bumpy. New processes, different people, and all the energy that goes into building the skills, network and momentum- no wonder why the comfort of a stable career is prevents many people from pursuing their calling. Change isn't easy. Now imagine you're a working attorney with a promising future and more than a decade of education, testing, and training to get to where you are. That's the scenario my guest on the show today, Maria Brito found herself in. She recalls, "For the years I was an attorney, it was like I had a fake identity." It was clear that law was not her calling. Fast forward to today's episode, and Maria is now an award-winning contemporary art advisor, author, and curator. She has written for publications such as Entrepreneur, Huffington Post, Elle, Forbes... the list goes on. Complex Magazine named Maria one of the Top 20 Power Players in the Art World. She now teaches creativity courses in companies and, in 2019, she launched "Jumpstart", an online program on creativity for entrepreneurs based on years of research and observation in both the areas of business and art. The episode is filled with advice for making a career transition, ideas for jumpstarting your creativity and explores how a lack of experience can be an advantage. Highlights from the show: While educating clients and creating content isn't directly revenue-generating, Maria describes how a less transactional approach to the art business has been a key component of her success. Leaving a legacy and being a pioneer: "Anyone can be a pioneer of something if only they let their ideas out, and only if they are willing to execute them." Creativity is a series of habits, actions and activities. It's not some mystical flow state. How NFTs and blockchain tech is impacting the conventional art world (there is no longer a clear boundary between digital and physical art) Taking calculated risks to pursue passion Being willing to shift Finding gold at the intersection of two or more distinct domains There is so much goodness to unpack from Maria.

Kate Robinson is a writer, speaker, and co- founder of a number of initiatives dedicated to the legacy of her father, Sir Ken Robinson. On the show, Kate shares some backstory on her father's life, and the journey that led to her completing his final piece of work. In Sir Ken and Kate's perspectives, there are 3 myths regarding creativity that hinder our advancement as a collective. Creativity is about a certain group of people, "the creatives" Creativity is about certain things/subjects (music, writing, art, dance, etc) You're either creative or you're not The truth is, creativity lives in each of us, it is a muscle that can be trained and strengthened, and there is space for creativity in every activity. Sir Ken and Kate define creativity as "the process of having original ideas that have value." It is an ongoing process of idea creation and evaluation, and it can be applied to anything. True change comes from those who dare to imagine. Creativity comes from within, and progress comes from diversity of thought. Identify your passion, tap into your creativity, and encourage others to do the same. https://imagine-if.com/ Enjoy! Have a question?

Do you have a big dream, but you're having trouble making progress? There is one simple thing you can do to start moving, and re-train your brain to operate autonomously, prioritize joy. Once you make this contract with yourself to pursue joy on a regular basis, you start to create inertia. So how do you get started? Maybe you don't know what action to take? I believe that a hugely under valued element of the equation is joy. You don't need to wait for lighting to strike. You don't need a master grand plan. Just start doing more of the stuff that make you feel more alive, and less of the things that block you or don't serve you. In this episode I share a few thoughts on how prioritizing joy on a daily basis can have tremendous positive impacts in other area of life. So are YOU following joy? Share this message with a friend who needs to hear it. Enjoy! Have a question? Text me 1-206-309-5177 Tweet me @chasejarvis --- Today's episode is brought to you by CreativeLive.

Are there certain traits that make someone charismatic? Why do some people captivate a room, while others struggle to manage a small meeting? Why do some ideas spread, but other good ones fall by the wayside? These are the questions that bestselling author and human behavior expert Vanessa Van Edwards seeks to answer in her new book, "Cues: Master the Secret Language of Charismatic Communication." If we're often overlooked for job opportunities or have our ideas ignored, we should pay closer attention to the "tiny" signals we send to others through our body language, facial expressions, word choice, and vocal inflection. Vanessa believes these "cues" have a huge impact on how we, and our ideas, come across and can either undermine or reinforce our message. In today's episode, I talk with her about her book—and how we can convey likeability, trust, and power in every interaction. Over 54 million people have seen Vanessa on YouTube and in her viral TED Talk. Her behavior research lab, Science of People, has been featured on Fast Company, Inc., USA Today, CNN, CBS, and Entrepreneur Magazine. Here are some highlights from our conversation: When we meet someone, over 80% of our judgments are based on two traits: warmth and competence. The faster we can answer the following questions, the faster we can connect with people: Can I trust you? Can I rely on you? Even in the virtual world, we can communicate effectively and give and receive social cues. Myth: cues are less important on a video call. Pro tip: Stand more than 18 inches away from the camera in an online meeting to avoid appearing to invade participants' intimate space. This helps others trust us more easily and see more cues, especially gestures, which is important because people use gestures to get additional information. Enjoy! Have a question?

Here we are at the end of February - how are those New Years Resolutions going? 😁 There is so much hype built into our society around resolutions. We often associate them with huge goals, and things we want to accomplish, rather than behaviors we want to embody. If 64% of all people fail their resolutions within one month of starting, what is the common factor that makes them so hard to stick to? Over the years, I developed another method to review my habits and set new ones. In this episode, I share my method along with some new habits I set for myself in 2022. If you've struggled in the past with goal setting or just want to try another way to look at your habits, this behavior oriented system might be for you. Enjoy! Have a question?

Deep in the grips of drug addiction, Gabby Bernstein was sitting in her beaten-up white Toyota Corolla playing a cassette again and again and listening to a psychic saying to her, "You have two choices in this lifetime: You could stay addicted—and that's not going to be good—or you can get clean and make a major impact on the world." In that moment, she couldn't contemplate what it would be like to get out of bed later that day, let alone make a major impact on the world. But she kept listening. Fast forward almost two decades, Gabby has written her ninth book, Happy Days, in which she guides readers down a path where they can go from trauma to profound freedom and inner peace. She's living proof that it's possible to overcome the challenges of addiction, trauma, and depression and find hope again. Timestamps: [00:00] Intro [02:25] Who is Gabby Bernstein?

At a time when divisiveness and polarity seem at their all-time highs, the stories we tell matter more than ever.
