AllSwell started as a passion project launched to encourage creativity in all its forms. It’s the brainchild of Laura Rubin, founder and creative director of the communications agency Left Left Right (LLR) Consulting.

Born from a morning surf check with uninspiring results, Laura decided to sit on the beach and journal instead. “Swell or no swell, all’s well.” As an inveterate scribbler and journal-keeper, she wanted to invite more people, like you, to reap its benefits.

Since Laura likes to both write and draw, she was on the lookout for one lightweight notebook that offered both lined and unlined paper for tossing in a beach bag or backpack. She couldn’t find any so she made some and put them on offer. They sold out. So she made some more. And those sold out. People liked these notebooks. Moreover they were hungry for analog creative experiences, ways to express themselves.

What started as a bit of a whim, fulfilling a personal need, AllSwell is now much more. It’s about waking people up to the fact that their life is a creative act. It really is. What does that mean? You get to choose what it looks like. How’s that for daunting + exciting? Pretty good stuff.

Breakout was inspired by and born in the spring of 2014 in New York City by Michael Farber and Graham Cohen. They set out to bring together the cities top under 40 business leaders to generate new ideas, new partnerships, and friendships. What started as casual gatherings in Michael's Soho apartment quickly morphed into 100 founders boarding a plane together for a 48 hour whirlwind trip to Miami. The goal was to 'breakout' people out of their typical routines and comfort zones, and put them in a place to grow, inspire, and build together ...

New friendships were seeded, investments were made, and new businesses were even created. But something was missing.... and a new idea started growing.

What if instead of just taking this accomplished group of leaders to resort type settings, what if they went to growth cities? Environment's where "Breakers" could use their minds and learn from local leaders, organizations, and entrepreneurs who were innovating and working to solve civic issues.  And what if during these conversations, there was a way to use the groups network, experience and access to capital to be helpful?

Over the next two years, the model of 'Impact Eventing' was born and now each year the team selects new cities to Breakout to.

Breakout brings entrepreneurs, influencers, and innovators from all regions of the country to emerging cities for immersive and experiential retreats, introducing them to the places and the people who are making a positive difference. (All credit to https://www.breakout.today/about-history)
