My name is Jeff Fajans (rhymes with “lions”).🦁

I am creative performance & leadership coach who works with creators, entrepreneurs, and leaders to help them bring their biggest ideas to life and reach their next level of creative success.

Here are 3 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 am an avid music creator and guitar player - and since the birth of my amazingly curious, creative, and energetic 6-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 toddlers and parents experiencing the world together. This is NOT anything like the typical cookie-cutter children’s music out there. The president of the National Association of Record Industry Professionals (NARIP) described my EP, Trash Truck, as “Beastie Boys for Babies” 🤣.
