Welcome! I’m Leah Campbell Badertscher, once-upon-a-time lawyer turned artist and Master Creativity Coach, and the founder of The Art School and The Art School Podcast.

The Art School radically nurtures the genius within, fostering the most deep, profound of transformations, the ones that help you become the person you’ve always known you could be, living the life you’ve always dreamed of.   

 I created The Art School to be “the dream school” I used to wish existed back when I was still a lawyer but was wanting to make my way to something more, something much different.  Back then, when I would describe to people the blend of modalities I was looking for in order to develop my potential and bring my vision to life, I was told that just didn’t exist.

So I decided to create it.

Now, drawing upon everything I’ve learned through 20+ years of study, training, and the process of creating my own dream life from scratch, I’ve created an approach and programs that blend neuroscience, poetic and artistic thought, creative ways of being, ancient wisdom, somatic intelligence, positive psychology, my clients’ own innate creative genius, countless trainings I’ve undertaken as well as my own finely honed intuition that, when applied through coaching, can feel like straight-up magic
but creates real world results for my clients.

THE ART SCHOOL PHILOSOPHY

“The object is not to make art,
it is to be in that wonderful state
which makes art inevitable.”
-Robert Henri

This foundational wisdom of this quote helped inspire
the foundational philosophy of The Art School:

that our extraordinary dreams become inevitable.

More About Me, Leah

Testimonials & Featured Clients

“In a year and a half, I toured more than I had in any previous year and I did it with less stress and heartache. I made more money in one year than I ever have and it felt easy for the first time. I reached my goals and exceeded my own expectations for how it’s possible to fall in love with life without really changing much of anything except for the story I tell and the throughs and emotions I chose. Struggle and overwhelm, self-doubt and burn out? They’re gone! Gone, gone, gone. And that has made all the difference.”

Hope Dunbar, Singer-Songwriter, Musician
