30 Day Creative Momentum Challenge

This 1-on-1 coaching program is for creative leaders, founders, and purpose-driven professionals who are navigating transition and want to reconnect to their boldest creative self.

Whether you're:

Emerging from burnout and need a reset
Feeling scattered across too many possibilities
Standing at a professional or personal crossroads, unsure what to let go of and what to carry forward
Or simply craving a deeper sense of purpose, direction, and creative joy…

…this experience offers the space, structure, and support to align your next chapter with what truly matters most.

Jeff helped me with understanding what I really wanted out of my personal projects. He gave me many tools to break down my goals into actions and helped me implement those actions on my every day.

I feel like I've advanced more in a month than I've advanced in the last 2 years.

I would recommend Jeff to anyone looking to break through and find ways to fulfill their full potential.

If you are thinking about it... Do it! You won't regret working with Jeff.

— Enrique, Course Creator and Digital Marketing Consultant

I initially signed up for coaching with Jeff during a transition period in my career, when I had to redefine my role inside my organization, identify my priorities, areas of focus, and how to have an impact during a phase of intense flux.

Jeff helped me a lot, bringing great clarity, perspective, and suggesting approaches or methods that helped me navigate this change.

Many of his suggestions are now part of my daily routine. We continued evolving the coaching relationship from there.

I feel Jeff can be a great partner for anyone in a leadership position, having to deal with culture change, innovation in organizations, and how to be effective during uncertain times.

I am an app developer transitioning from working in a structured company environment in a different domain to becoming an entrepreneur and developing my own product.

I had been stuck and overwhelmed for many months before I met Jeff, and am thrilled at my progress after working with him!

Jeff helped me rethink my approach to the project to make it more methodical and flow-generating.

With his support, I learned how to break down any task into manageable goals and to devote my focus on productive work that gets me moving forward.

I worked with Jeff to come up with a daily routine and developed many small but significant habits that make me feel more organized and optimistic every day!

❤️‍🔥 Unshakable Connection to Your Authentic Motivations

You'll know what truly drives you—beyond "should's", beyond external validation. Your vision will be rooted in what feels most alive and energized.

🔥 A Bold Creative Vision That Excites AND Aligns You

Your direction will be crystal clear—and it will genuinely light you up. No more circling. No more second-guessing.

🎯 Clear Priorities That Cut Through the Noise

You'll know your 1-3 priorities. You'll know what to say no to. Your energy will be focused on what matters most.

🚀 Proven Direction (Not Just Theory)

You'll have tested your vision in the real world for 30 days. You'll know it works. You'll have creative momentum.

💪 A Personal Toolkit to Sustain Your Creative Vision

You'll have practices, frameworks, and tools to protect your energy, stay in flow, and keep amplifying your vision long after our sessions end.

Dream up bold, exciting possibilities, without limits or constraints.

Building directly on the authentic motivations, purpose, and values you clarified in Session 1:

→ We'll explore multiple compelling visions for your next creative chapter. This isn't about choosing yet—it's about opening up to what's possible when you give yourself permission to dream big.

→ You'll reconnect with the sense of possibility that makes your vision feel not just meaningful, but inevitable, because it's coming from your most authentic desires.

→ This session is playful, expansive, and creatively charged.

You'll leave with:

2–3 compelling, distinct visions for your future (each rooted in authentic motivation and creative energy)
A renewed sense of excitement and possibility about what's ahead
Clarity on which direction(s) feel most alive and aligned to explore further

Choose your direction, build your roadmap, and design your experiments.

This is where possibility becomes reality. From the compelling visions you explored in Session 2:

→ We'll identify the direction that feels most alive, aligned, and energizing to pursue right now.

→ Then we'll design a flexible, focused 30 day experiment and roadmap to start bringing this creative vision to life (that honors your unique creative rhythm and protects your energy).

→ This isn't about locking yourself into a perfect, forever plan. It's about making a clear, confident choice and designing the right first moves.

→ We'll cut through the noise, eliminate what doesn't serve you, and create a roadmap that feels exciting (not overwhelming). You'll design an approach that works with your natural flow triggers, daily reality, and creative energy patterns, so momentum feels inevitable, not forced.

You'll leave with:

A clear, focused direction you're genuinely excited to pursue
A flexible 30 day action plan with specific projects, experiments, or next steps
Confidence that you're investing your energy where it matters most
Practical strategies to protect your time, sustain motivation, and stay in creative flow

Reflect, celebrate, and lock in your creative momentum.

After 30 days of real-world experimentation and implementation:

→ We'll come together to strengthen what's working, troubleshoot what's not, and refine your approach for sustainable, long-term creative momentum.

→ We'll celebrate your wins (even the small ones), examine any resistance or blocks that surfaced, and adjust your plan so it feels even more aligned and energizing.

→ This session is about integration and reinforcement. You'll identify the practices, rhythms, and mindsets that are fueling your progress, and build them into your ongoing creative life.

You'll leave with:

Validated creative confidence in your chosen direction (proven through real-world results)
A refined approach that accounts for what you learned during implementation
Your personal creative momentum toolkit: the specific practices, triggers, and rhythms that keep you energized and in flow
A clear sense of what's next and how to sustain this clarity and creative energy long after our work together ends

I'm a filmmaker and my goal is to make a feature film.

I have spent the last year writing a script but after that I didn't really know what to do or where to begin. I felt overwhelmed and didn't get anything done and I realized that I needed someone to help me move forward.

Jeff has been really helpful in breaking stuff down to small steps, to motivate me and hold me accountable.

It has also been a great help working with someone who is an artist and therefore understands the creative process, challenges, and how to work through them. I get the feeling that he honestly cares and he puts way more time and effort in than I expected.

He has helped me to move forward and I feel more confident and productive. He has already exceeded my expectations!

I’ve been living like what Julia Cameron calls a Shadow Artist – a writer by heart and soul whose creative passion was ignored and suppressed in many ways throughout life. I’ve been blocked for years: for not believing I could or should pursue my desires, and for the lack of an effective way to do it.

Jeff has been giving the encouragement I need and helping me to find the best way to keep productive through my personal daily challenges - both external challenges as internal ones.

For the first time, I reached a goal that seemed pretty ambitious to me: I wrote over 35,000 words. With Jeff’s support, I was able to work consistently most days and to keep going when things didn’t go well.

I’m very happy with Jeff’s coach and I hope we keep working together through my other goals. I believe he has the sensibility and knowledge to work with different creative persons and their particular needs in a given time, so I highly recommend him.

Hey everyone!

My name is Jeff Fajans (rhymes with "lions").

I help creators and entrepreneurs bring their biggest ideas to life.

My mission is to help 1 million creative people (like you) bring their biggest ideas to life, grow their impact, and become their best creative selves (aka become Creative Badasses).

The values that drive me are creativity, curiosity, compassion, and courage.

I’ve worked 1-on-1 with hundreds of creative people and presented to thousands of others across the world from every continent except Antarctica (for some reason, penguins aren’t into self-development).

My clients come from all creative industries - from technology, design, marketing, software development, filmmaking, writing, art, music, architecture, content creators & influencers, professional speaking, academia, non-profit, and other small and mid-sized creative businesses.

These are people who are pursuing big goals like starting or leading a business (and scaling it to higher levels of innovation & growth), writing + filming a feature film (and it winning a Sundance award), building an app or product (and getting accepted into Y Combinator or getting VC funding), writing a book (and hitting the Amazon bestseller list) or even exploring a meaningful side hustle or passion project.

I created this program because I've seen too many talented, capable people stay stuck. Not because they lack potential, but because their vision isn't clear or loud enough to guide them forward.

I believe a bold, amplified creative vision is the foundation of creative success and fulfillment.

And I believe you already have everything you need—you just need the space, structure, and support to amplify what's already there.

Here are 4 Things You Probably Didn't Know About Me

Thing #1: My last name is a Polish last name. My Polish great-grandfather Kazimierz Fajans discovered the chemical element, Protactinium, and ate lunch with Albert Einstein at a table my parents now have in their dining room.
Thing #2: I have a PhD in Positive Organizational Psychology from Claremont Graduate University, where I studied under Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, world-renowned author of Flow. My research focused on how to help people learn, develop, and lead more effectively to better achieve creative goals.
Thing #3: I teach graduate-level leadership, organizational psychology, and change & innovation courses at the University of Colorado, Boulder.
Thing #4: I am an avid music creator, guitar player, and member of the Recording Academy - and since the birth of my amazingly curious, creative, and energetic 7-year-old son, Hendrix, I have been creating funky fresh kids' music under the artist name, MrBoodaddy, that captures the authenticity, joy, craziness, and fun of kids and parents experiencing the world together. This is NOT anything like the typical cookie-cutter children's music out there. My music has been described by music execs and supervisors as "Beastie Boys for Babies" 🤣.
