Jeff Leisawitz

Jeff Leisawitz burns with a mission—to inspire heart-centered solopreneurs and creative types of every flavor to amp up their power to 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 empowering others.

“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.

By combining decades of street cred with personalized exercises, guided meditations, and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Re-Patterning) techniques, Jeff’s clients have overcome creative blocks including fear of failure, the inner critic, imposter syndrome, and many others.

Notable Quotes

  • Creativity is not a luxury item.

  • So I went from not being able to sell the script, to making the movie, to overspending in the movie, to not getting anywhere with the movie, to the goal. How’s that possible? I don’t know but it happens.

  • We tend to see ourselves in a way that other people see us.

  • We need to stay true to ourselves and our vision.

  • You’re not going to be a millionaire. That’s okay. What you need is something that gives you joy, service, and connections.

  • You need to know what drives you. If you don’t know, you’re not tapping into the energy that’s potentially there for you.

  • Every successful person in the world, whether in creativity, business, or anything has failed about a million times before they got to their vision.

  • The best decisions most people make in their lives will not be intellectual. They will be driven from the heart.
