BACKSTORY Today is a big day - many months (years) in the making. Today I'm excited to be kicking off one of the most exciting, inspiring and ambitious projects of my career: a free video series called 30 Days Of Genius. If you've been following me for a while you'll know that chasejarvisLIVE has been a huge undertaking - me sitting down with the world's top creatives + entrepreneurs for an hour conversation with them...

I was very bullish on Snapchat back in 2016 (thanks to the urging of friend Gary Vaynerchuk aka Gary Vee who was - as always - very ahead of the curve on Snapchat). But the landscape has changed quite a bit since then, with Instagram adding stories and TikTok dominating the "For You" feed among other things. So the question is, is Snapchat still relevant for creative pros? I'm not sure I'd make it my...

Shutterbug took a little peek behind the scenes of this photo that recently struck a chord on my social channels. It's a good reminder that often it's the moments between the moments where the real magic lies.

You guys know, if I share something -- a product, a service, an idea, a CAMERA -- it's sure to be something I believe in. Hell, I've even been been paid lots of money to represent brands and gear before but I've only considered things I ACTUALLY USE AND BELIEVE IN. I've spent a decade or more building your trust - and that's too valuable for me to gamble with in an instant. This episode...

Problem: the freelance life can be amazing, but there are lots of overlooked pitfalls when you're working for yourself. In particular I'm interested in one problem that none of my freelance friends--nor anyone on the internet quite frankly-- is talking about...and that's movement and physical well being. In a recent #cjRAW, I addressed this head on and we talked about 3 ways to move your body throughout the day (it focused on standup desks, walking...

Loved this talk w/ my man Ryan Hawk (@ryanhawk12) on The Learning Leader Show. He hit the ground running by asking me what do people who have sustained excellence over an extended period have in common. My answer? Stamina. We also got into my process of learning, how I increase productivity through my schedule, and making creativity a daily habit. Ryan's podcast shares the journey successful leaders are on so that we can better understand...

AWARENESS. Awareness is the secret to finding beauty. Recently Kate and I took a quick trip to a small island off the coast of Seattle called Vashon to visit two of our good friends Michael and Angel...I was vlogging the trip. While reviewing the footage, I noticed myself noticing / saying how "beautiful" this or that was, noticing small details in they way something looked or smelled ... like 50 times. In short, it started...

My dear friend Lewis Howes recently asked me a damn good question. If you could - what would you tell your younger self? My answer sucked. But he told me HIS answer and I thought his answer was a good one... So good in fact that I wished I'd had learned the lessons much much earlier in life. I tried to write this in my own voice, but since the list and story weren't mine...

You guys have heard me talking about my early lifelong love of activity and sports like skateboarding, skiing, football, and even going to college on a soccer scholarship. Coming from an athletic background, I always considered myself pretty active. Yet, the truth is, once I started building my photography career in action sports I put my entire focus in that and the majority of my movement came from my work. Even though my career is...
