Wondering Who's Hosting These Retreats?
Hey, I'm Steph Blake! š
I'm a Business Consultant and Software CEO. I'm also a mom to 2 boys, wife, CEO & Amazon Prime addict.
For years, I poured everything into building my business and raising my familyāuntil I realized I lost a part of myself in the process.
I used to be deeply creative, finding joy in designing, making, and exploring new ideas.
But as life got busier, that creativity took a backseat to client work, to-do lists, and the daily demands of running a business and being a mom.
One day, I decided to slowly start creating againājust for myself.
I explored new hobbies to get a quick dopamine hit for my ADHD brain with no expectations or pressure. And everything changed.
Tapping back into creativity didnāt just bring back joyāit became a form of self-care, a reset button, and a way to feel more connected to myself than ever before.
Now, through Create & Escapeā¢, I help others rediscover that same creative freedom.
