Leah Beach is changing the way society understands Artists by using her art skills to do big, world-changing things, guiding people to connect to their inner artists, and inspiring creative founders in the startup phase to stop getting in the way of themselves and thrive on.

Let’s make

something

From murals filling the walls of a hospital’s children’s oncology unit to an international photography campaign centered around global dementia. It doesn’t matter what it is; Leah loves creating something that changes people’s lives and makes the world a better place.

The People Must paint

Professional Development shouldn’t be tedious. Creative Connection is a mindfulness, painting, and music experience to immerse people in an expressive bonding and personal life-altering call to their purpose. Leah created this specifically for groups of people who don’t identify as Artists. People walk away with an unforgettable connection plus a one-of-a-kind piece of Art.

It Doesn’t Have to Be this hard.

Leah founded the Developing Artist Collaboration, an artist development nonprofit, from scratch when she was 25 and had the experience of her lifetime growing up alongside her mission. After becoming the master of doing it the hard way, she’s ready to inspire other founders not to.

Oh hey, she makes cool art

Leah Writes

Leah is currently writing her book proposal for, “It Doesn’t Have to be This Hard” A Founders Guide to Fucking Upwards. Leah isn’t shy about sharing her mistakes and ultimately had to learn how to build her movement the hard way.

The entrepreneurial self-help industry typically is written from the perspective of those who “made it” (millionaire business tycoons) and rarely digs into the soul of the founder’s journey. This book is about Leah’s growing up alongside the movement she began when she was 25. Though not quite there, she has a painfully hilarious but mostly inspiring message to share to help the next generation of movement leaders.
