The Chase Jarvis Live Show

Max Lugavere is a health and science journalist focused on nutrition, fitness, and wellness. Max’s journey to understanding the power food has on brain function began when was helping his mother, who developed Lewy body dementia. He noticed the doctors doing nothing except trying to manage the symptoms- rather than actually curing the disease. He started learning and applying what we are now learning about the science of food and cooking and kicked off a decade-long journey to understand how to prevent cognitive decline. What he found out was that, “The same steps that we can take that are going to buy us extra years if not possibly decades of cognitive health also improve the way our brains work here and now.” In this episode we dig into: The why behind a Genius Life came from Max’s mom, who developed a rare form of dementia. When the doctors didn’t help, he took it upon himself to research everything he could to help his mom battle her early onset dementia to try to help her live the best life she could.

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 cr

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

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?

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 bee

Here we are at the end of February - how are those New Years Resolutions going?

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. Stories contain the power to lift us up during our most difficult moments, and unite people around shared values and ideas. So what contributes to an effective story? And what makes a skilled storyteller? Nicola Yoon is here to discuss just that. As part of CreativeLive's Between the Lines interview series, hosted by Kelly Corrigan, we hear the stories behind the stories with 16 of the world's top authors. Nicola is the #1 NYT Bestselling Author of Everything, Everything, which is now a major motion picture, and The Sun Is Also a Star, a National Book Award finalist, Michael L. Printz Honor Book and Coretta Scott King New Talent Award winner.  Nicola expounds on a number of relevant and important topics such as: Storytelling as a means of understanding others Creative inspiration and Nicola's writing process Difference between fiction and non-fiction stories The importance of gestures in

Payal Kadakia studied operations research and economics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, but she was always determined to keep dance in her life—both during her college years and her professional career. She was three years old when she fell in love with dance because it offered her a place to center herself, be creative, and be herself. The corporate world provided Payal with a safety net, but one day she decided it was time to build a business around her lifelong passion. The result, ClassPass—a membership program offering access to an extensive network of wellness and fitness experiences—became a global sensation. The platform became the first unicorn of the decade, and Mindbody, one of the leading wellness technology platforms, acquired it in late 2021. Prior to the acquisition, ClassPass members had completed more than 100 million hours of training at 30,000 partner studios in over 30 countries. “Founders who think in a creative mindset are the ones who are able to build these new blueprints f

Are you getting in your own way? This week I'm diving into two questions from the community. The first question involves knowing how to choose which projects to commit to, and how to stay focused even when new opportunities present themselves. My top level advice:  Identify what YOU care about and what you want to stand for Don’t spend too much time worrying what other people are doing Experiment and play  Find an accounta-bili-buddy  Learn through action Execute on ideas  The second question we get into the art of storytelling. Whether we like it or not, when we're telling stories, there is a piece of ourselves that is present. Even if the goal is to be an unbiased 3rd party, how you tell the story will impact how it's percieved. Embrace your own unique perspective. It can be the difference between good and great storytelling. Enjoy! Have a question? Text me 1-206-309-5177

Communication is one of the most powerful skills a human can master. Exceptional people speak in a cadence, have a pleasant aura, listen to and validate others, and use broad, straightforward gestures to communicate. You’ve heard the phrase, “It’s not what you say it’s how you say it?” In this episode, Joe Navarro explains how to use nonverbals to communicate more effectively. With 25 years in the FBI, specializing in counterintelligence and behavioral assessment, Joe has authored 14 books in 29 languages dealing with human behavior and body language.  After more than a decade, What Every BODY is Saying, remains the #1 selling body-language book in the world. Louder Than Words, based on his annual lectures at the Harvard Business School over the last twelve years, was hailed by The Wall Street Journal as "One of the six best business books to read for your career." Joe’s newest book, Be Exceptional, highlights five distinguishable traits that most exceptional humans possess.  At first, putting together t

How often do you catch yourself in a storm of self-defeating thoughts? Do you tend to be self-critical and drift toward worry regardless of the circumstances? How do you usually talk to yourself? Are you your own cheerleader? How often do you hear in your head statements like “I’m no good”?  You can’t reason with your reptilian brain, but the good news is that it learns through action. Every time you take action and survive, it learns a new lesson. In other words, the process of facing fear, acknowledging it, taking action, is like a muscle. The more you work it, the easier it becomes. This is one of the best mechanisms that I know for reducing the volume of negative self-talk because taking even small actions in the face of fear helps you become more confident.  Today's episode is a reminder to evaluate how you talk to yourself. Timestamps: [00:00] Intro [01:05] Language is incredibly powerful, and you’re in charge of writing your life script.  [02:47] Fear is a gift, a precious instinct.  [04:09] Take actio
