Story
Life isn’t about “finding” fulfillment and success - it’s about creating it. Why then has creativity been given a back seat in our culture? No longer. Creativity is a force inside every person that, when unleashed, transforms our lives and delivers vitality to everything we do. Establishing a creative practice is therefore our most valuable and urgent task - as important to our well-being as exercise or nutrition. The good news? Renowned artist, author, and CreativeLive founder, Chase Jarvis, reminds us that creativity isn't a skill - it's a habit available to everyone.

Great book, encouraging and inspiring
Love Lisa’s podcast so I didn’t hesitate to buy the audio book. Practical, relatable advice at different stages of her career. Interviews were interesting as well. I wish Lisa had narrated the book, she has such a great voice on her podcast, very easy to listen to and absorb. I found the narration sounded too polished and not genuine, to the point it was hard to listen to. I will definitely buy the paper copy. Hoping Lisa will narrate it eventually. This would be a book I would listen to over and over.

Love Lisa, Wish narrator was more
The narrator is really good, great voice, very eloquent, but it struck me at the beginning and throughout, how it didn’t feel Iike the right fit for this book, for Lisa’s words and her style.. Its such a treat to hear a book for the author themselves, and if not, you hope it is read in a voice that aligns with what you see in the author. That’s my only not so positive feedback. Content is inspiring.

Excellent Book
This book was very informative and inspiring. I think it is one of the best Art books for Artists that I have ever listened to or read. It has inspired me to just keep going and keep painting even when fear or doubt get in the way.

Reignited my creative spark!
Diverse perspectives on being a creative and navigating the ups and downs of creating art though thoughtful interviews and the authors own experience.
Concepts were clearly defined and actionable in nature. Narration is excellent.
Will happily purchase the physical book to refer back to :)
