Live A Fulfilling, Fearless Life As A Creative with Jeff Leisawitz, Author of Not F*cking Around

A fearless, fulfilling life is something that can feel elusive, especially as we seek to "make it", hustling to move your passions from day jobs and side-hustles into a money-making, full-time endeavor. We talk about the Japanese concept of ikigai, and finding the sweet spot of passion, purpose (mission), talent and compensation. If you are a musician, a graphic designer, an actor, an author, or a creative of any other sort, this conversation with Jeff Leisawitz is for you.

Jeff is a lifelong musician who has over 5000 music placements in film & television to his credit. He is an internationally distributed screenwriter, director, producer and critically acclaimed public speaker and author of "Not F*cking Around: The No Bullsh*t Guide For Getting Your Creative Dreams Off The Ground".
