CHICAGO - illiNews -- Creativity matters now more than ever.

Laurie Lamson and Brionne Davis Davel are teaming up for two virtual mini creative getaways, followed by an in-person Creative Getaway weekend.

Whether an actor, writer, artist, filmmaker, entrepreneur, or simply someone looking for more creativity in their work and life, this interactive online getaway is designed to inspire and empower creative freedom - a Creative Reset People Party!

Laurie and Brionne's approach combines creative exploration with practical guidance in a supportive environment where every participant is welcome, wherever they're starting from, such as:

• "I used to be creative."
• "I have ideas but don't know where to begin."
• "I want to do or make something, but I don't know how to start."
• "I just want more creativity, joy, and meaning in my life."

During this two-hour experience, participants will explore practical tools, fresh perspectives, and guided conversations to help:

• Reconnect with their creativity
• Move through creative blocks
• Gain clarity about a project or next milestone
• Leave with renewed momentum
