A Luxury Food & Well-being Retreat in Southern Italy
La Dolce Vita: The Ultimate Reset for Women Leaders
Calabria, Italy
November 1st–7th, 2025
A transformational retreat for the woman who loves good food and adventure just as much as she loves achieving success and personal growth… but who is finally ready to drop her shoulders and let ‘following the fun’ become the strategy that magnetizes her next level.
Join me on the breathtaking Ionian coast of Italy where the pace softens, the flavors nourish, and every moment invites you to exhale, recalibrate, and return home to yourself.
It's time to be treated like the queen you are
You’ve been holding it all together...and crushing it - driving your work, showing up for everyone else, managing the team. The goals get met, the milestones checked…
But inside, you’re craving MORE...
More ease.
More fun.
More feeling GOOD.
This is your invitation to let go of the “doing” and surrender into being deeply cared for on the coast of Italy and blissfully forgetting what day it even is…
This retreat is the reminder that it was never meant to be this hard (fellow overachievers, I see you).
Your nervous system exhales, your creativity returns, and your next level of magnetism unlocks.
It gets to be easy
Your retreat ripple...
Business gets easier...
- Ideas land and “click” easily with a visceral force of YES that has you feeling inspired to follow through with excitement and ease.
- Clients say yes, even beg you to work with them.
- You stop forcing programs that are the bane of your existence and instead magnetize aligned partnerships and clients coming to you. Hello magnetism.
- You remember what it feels like to be utterly obsessed with your work.
- You are finally swimming downstream with universal force moving with you instead of you trying to solve world consciousness alone.
You get happier...
- More “holy sh*t this is my life” moments that where your reality is so good it almost feels fake.
- Wake up feeling EXCITED to lead with so much creativity + passion exuding out of you that you can almost see the sparkle emojis coming out of your eyes.
- A community of soul sisters who know you, see you, and love you so fiercely that you can call any one of them to help hide the body bag—no questions or judgment…
- Feel fully ALIVE – dips in clear turquoise sea, goosebump-level possibility, and deep conversations with women that aren’t about weather but rather universal magic, million-dollar ideas, human design, quantum leaps etc.
- Actually not sweat the small things anymore and be the type of person who rolls with the punches, takes things lightly, cares less about what (or who) doesn’t matter, and fiercely protects your own joy.
You attract more, by doing less...
- You leap fully into your boldest, most magnetic self that has clients seeking you out saying “I don’t know what it is about you, but I need to hire you…”
- More receptivity to your quick internal wisdom that whispers “try live events instead of emails” which leads to tripling your revenue (without the stress)!
- The difference between spending hundreds of thousands on a mastermind vs being able to hear and follow the nudge that whispered to “go to this event” where you met someone who bought your next $100k offer.
- You go to a networking event and the first person you meet is the director of HR who wants to connect you to the CEO to deliver your service. E.A.S.Y.
You fall in love with your life...
- You stop “someday-ing” your dream and get to check off “take a cooking class in Italy” from your bucket list.
- Slower mornings and longer lunches that end with you rolling over on the floor from laughter and remind you that the whole point of this “life thing” is to actually feel good and enjoy.
- You stop starting the day at your computer and instead actually start experiencing thrill, romanticizing your life, seeing other countries, tasting different cultures, and doing more experiences where you forget to even look at your phone.
- You become the person posting photos from vineyards in Italy where others can FEEL the joy in the photos and comment how jealous they are of your life. Hell, even YOU’RE jealous of your life!
Allow yourself to imagine…
Waking up in a sun-drenched room, the soft sea breeze drifting through your balcony door. You sip your cappuccino, receiving more clarity and inspiration than you have in years.
The morning is spent with your new business besties making homemade pasta, learning, tasting, and eating gourmet dishes (so much eating) prepared by world renowned chefs: handmade gnocchi, housemade mozzarella, truffle balsamic salad...toasting with prosecco as new business ideas drop in effortlessly.
You gather for a sacred coaching circle in the afternoon where you’ll be guided back to quietly hear the voice of your soul that has all the answers you been searching for, but maybe haven’t had a second to listen. You float weightlessly in the turquoise sea as the elements of Italy gently code your nervous system into more ease, receptivity, and joy. All of a sudden, everything feels simple.
Evening arrives and you dine under the stars at a local vineyard: truffle pasta, creamy burrata, homemade olive oil, house-made wine, laughter, and a deep feeling of “home” you didn’t know was possible.
You forget what day it is. You don’t know where your phone is. You are so filled up from the inside out, and wondering how day 2 could possibly top day 1, but you sleep soundly eager to find out…
This isn’t a someday dream. It’s your next level business strategy.
If you're feeling…
- Like you’ve plateaued into a lovely “average” flow but secretly wonder, “Is this as good as it gets? What about the champagne and caviar lifestyle I’m meant for??”
- Like the fun, passion, and play got lost somewhere between the spreadsheets and the strategy.
- You “try” so hard to relax and grow that reading every self-growth book becomes another taxing to-do (hint: you may have forgotten the point of self-growth is to experience more joy).
- Like you’ve built your business and life reaching for the next thing, and are finally ready to chill the F out and have someone spoon feed you pasta and prosecco on the coast of Italy.
- Low-key a little bored and uninspired by the day-to-day of your own business
- Have every good intention to create more “me-time” and pursue more “creative outlets”…but no matter how much you time block self-care, it always falls last.
- A little lonely!! You crave a circle of smart, soulful women leaders who truly get it and can talk deeper than how the weather is.
- Like you’re always the one holding space for everyone else and are ready to be the one who gets taken care of for once.
- Second-guessing your next big move or pivot, but each option either feels too overwhelming or uninspiring.
- You’re either so overworked and can’t find a minute to sit, OR so understimulating that you just keep reaching for the next thing of stimulation - phone scrolls, alcohol, food, the next project…
Then this is for you.
You don't need to push harder, you need a frequency reset.
Because no strategy will work when your body + energy are misaligned and your nervous system is in overdrive.
You don’t need to stay up later.
Or join another business mastermind.
Or force self care.
You simply need to reset your frequency.
This retreat gives you the reset AND the roadmap.
During one blissful week, on the coast of Italy.
Why this retreat is different:
Quantum Joy + Business Strategy + Pasta + Prosecco
This is not an “informational” retreat. It’s not a lecture. It’s not heavy shadow work. Those things are fine (I guess), but they’re not what will 10x your joy and success.
What you need is to relax….have fun…. to activate your frequency of abundance and joy + backed by aligned strategy + with pasta & processo.
Our retreat brings you back to your most natural state of being, without all the noise.
So you can unlock deeper access into your own intuition.
That will guide the path of least resistance.
Towards your dream business, life, health.
Then pair it with actionable strategies to hold the structure.
This is the shortcut to what most entrepreneurs and driven women spend years + $100K chasing.
Read below to learn our life-changing retreat process...
We’ll start by pouring into your mind, spirit, business (and your stomach!) —our 5-part process resets your energy, expands your abundance frequency, and activates the next-level version of you who effortlessly magnetizes dream clients, opportunities, relationships, wealth, health...all the things....

Sample Retreat Itinerary
Arrival day is about relaxing and grounding down after your travel journey to this tucked-away slice of heaven on earth in Calabria, Italy. You will be greeted with Prosecco, fresh juices, and a 4-course welcome dinner prepared by the Italian Culinary Institute. The food and wine from the ancient land of Calabria revitalize you as you get ready to embark on a soul journey of renewal and culinary bliss!
Spend the morning in the kitchen tasting dish after dish watching, learning (and tasting!) the art of creative Italian cuisine from the experts at the Italian Culinary Institute. In the afternoon we have our opening retreat circle where we do desire-based frequency work to shift into your next up-level. After some free time, we go out to dinner to a serene agriturismo where they hand-make every single ingredient on their property. We will delve into handmade ricotta, smoked cheese with honey, cured meats, arancini, risotto, handmade pasta, and of course, house-made wine.
Quick turnaround from cappuccino to vino today (with non-alcoholic options)! We tour a family-owned vineyard and taste their exquisite olive oils and wines. You’ll have free time for you to rest, relax, head down to the beach, and journal on your dream life. In the evening we gather for sunset for another coursed meal at The Italian Culinary Institute.
Pasta making with views of the Ionian Sea! After a pasta lesson, you’ll get to roll up your sleeves and play with creating your own shapes. Enjoy a homemade hazelnut gelato break then gather for another mind-body-business alignment coaching circle on the beach where we focus on bringing more joy into your business and life (optional sea plunge swim)! Dinner is a sunset buffet of cocktails and mocktails to go with our Apertivo (Italian buffet of snacks).
Who doesn’t love a good competition? We will break into teams for a cooking competition that draws on your strengths (as discovered from past assessments). You’ll have some free time followed by a night on the town at a local Osteria for a traditional Italian feast.
Visit a local air Italian market where you’ll have a chance to explore and shop (and of course, we have to stop for caffè and cornetti on the way). After a closing group coaching circle, we gather for a pizza party! Each participant gets to craft their own pizza and cook it in the wood-fired oven.
It’s not goodbye, it’s “until we meet again”. Everyone savors their final cappuccino & breakfast at the hotel before bidding farewell on the adventure of a lifetime.
You could keep spending $100k+ on coaching, networking events, wellness programs, and travel just to try and piece this together on your own...
OR you could spend one week in Italy and have it ALL delivered in a single, life-changing experience.
If you’ve been waiting for a sign—this is it.
When you’re in survival mode, clarity, creativity, and abundance cannot flow. You literally will stop yourself from receiving the next level you’ve been working so hard for.
Take a breath, relax, and join us on the coast of Italy.
The Cuisine...
The Italians take one thing VERY seriously, and that’s food (thank goodness!) Here, food is pure love, food is community, food is…life.
This retreat includes something truly rare and extraordinary: private access to the world-renowned Italian Culinary Institute right here on the coast of Calabria.
You’ll spend part of your week in their sea-view kitchen classroom watching Italian master chefs demo dish after dish after dish—each one more mouthwatering than the last—and tasting your way through every bite (it’s a sport really).
You’ll also roll up your sleeves for hands-on experiences where you’ll:
- Handcraft fresh pasta alongside Italian chefs.
- Toss pizza dough and layer toppings straight from the local market.
- Cooking competition that weaves in the psychology of team dynamics.
Don’t worry, we won’t make you “work” that hard. The rest of your meals you’ll be waited on with 5-star hospitality service, multi-coursed meals, table side wine pairings, and more. Think:
- Fresh truffle pasta hand-tossed to perfection.
- Burrata-stuffed zucchini blossoms drizzled with local olive oil.
- Ricotta layered with figs and honey.
- Wood-fired pizza pulled from the oven just for you.
- Homemade hazelnut, pistachio, and caramel gelato.
- Freshly layered tirsamisu with a side of espresso.
After each meal you’ll find yourself saying “OMG THIS was the best thing I ever ate”, only to proclaim the same statement again at the next meal…
We ensure your nourished at every level:
- Physically from the Mediterranean’s finest cuisine.
- Energetically from the pleasure of play + connection.
- Spiritually from the reminder that feeling good is your ultimate success strategy.
The Location...
There’s Italy… and then there’s Calabria…
Tucked away along the stunning Ionian coast, Calabria remains one of the country’s most untouched, soulful regions—a hidden gem known for its dramatic cliffs, ancient villages, turquoise waters, and vibrant food culture.
Here, the pace slows.
The air is sweeter.
The meals last longer.
You don’t just visit Calabria… you surrender to it.
Almost a decade ago, I quit my corporate job to attend culinary school at the very Italian Culinary Institute you’ll experience on this retreat. I didn’t learn how to cook here (I knew how to cook). What I learned, was a way of BEING. It was here, on this land, surrounded by food, beauty, and sea air, that I experienced a euphoria I didn’t know existed. This place set the bar for how good life could feel.
And now it’s your turn.
I can hear you now…
"Italy!?! That sounds amazing… but I barely have time for a trip to the grocery store!"
You’ve told yourself someday… when you’re less busy… when the business isn’t pulling at you… when the timing is “right”, someday.
THIS IS YOUR SIGN: SOMEDAY IS NOW.
Don't forget to have fun along the way.

What people are saying...
“I started my business, Divorced Girl Smiling back in 2013 and since then, I can’t remember ever waking up in the morning and not going straight to my computer to work. For the past several years, I have worked a 10-12 hour day every day. I work weekends. I work holidays. It never stops. I’m not complaining because I am a passionate entrepreneur who loves what I do. So when I met Hannah and learned about a retreat she was hosting in Greece, I thought ‘there’s no way I could ever go because I have to work.’ The more I got to know Hannah, the more I started thinking about the possibility of going. I asked her if I could work on the trip and she told me that there was a little downtime every morning, and that if I needed to get stuff done, I could, but I should try not to work so much so that I could get the whole experience. I committed and went on the trip. It was everything I dreamed of and more, but not for the reasons I expected. Yes, it was a first-class, amazing vacation with a group of women who are some of the best people I’ve ever met in my life. But I had never been in a place far away where I could experience true reflection and really work on a transformation to make my life even better than it is. I reflected a lot on my personal life and my professional life, and when I came back, business resumed as usual…but not really. I was different. I had more gratitude, more confidence, and more grounding in my work. The trip made me realize how small I am in such a big world, and that I can still love my work, but can benefit greatly from a richer, fuller life. Since then, I find myself more productive, less stressed about little things, and living in the present so much more than I used to. I’d highly recommend one of Hannah’s retreats. It was delightful and life changing for this entrepreneur.” – Hannah
“Hannah’s retreats are pure magic – delicious, enjoyable, so good for the soul – and somehow provide a powerful transformation that I had always thought had to be “hard.” Turns out – transformation can come through play and relaxing in beautiful places – at least when Hannah is by your side!
Attending retreats with Hannah has helped me feel more comfortable with receiving money and care, and a trust and confidence that I can run a business that works really well for me, as well as my clients.
Hannah’s retreats and coaching have helped me to trust both in my mind and in my body that I get to have my business and life run really well, I can run my business any way that I want, and I can feel good receiving money. I have felt deeply supported and cared for during her retreats.
This is my third year of making over six figures in my business. Previously, I had worked in the nonprofit field as a social worker, and as a yoga teacher, and I had not ever earned more than $45K in a year. The revenue leap and the success of my clients, even though I worked very hard to get it and thought I wanted it, was A LOT for me to handle, and I kept finding myself sabotaging it in weird ways. Working with Hannah has helped me acclimate to this new life so that the sabotaging has dropped aside, and I feel more comfortable receiving money, having money, and enjoying the money, and more comfortable celebrating the successes of my work and that of my clients.
I have also received multiple clients as a direct result of the connections I have made from attending Hannah’s retreats. Who knew having fun on retreat in Italy could be a revenue generating activity?!” – Elizabeth H.
As this is my third retreat with Hannah, the shifts have been both sudden and also, Continue for the full year after Retreat.
Major shifts for me have included, knowing myself better, feeling more peace in the challenges of life, taking more inspired risks, and action with less worry, well, maybe not with less worry, but with more confidence. It’s also a settling in to myself in the best way possible.
I guess what I’m trying to say is that the outside critical voices have gone quiet, and I am more able to live life from my heart. Space” – Naomi
“Hannah! Everything was perfect!! There is nothing I can say to enhance or improve a heavenly experience!!
The experience that I had in Greece was a beautiful blend of fun and personal growth. Retreats generally offer a mind, body and soul renewal…this one was so much deeper on so many levels. I cannot even begin to share how tired my heart was at the beginning of my journey. This retreat with Hannah, absolutely provided a perfect resting place for me. She created a beautiful space for a weary life traveler. Thank you, Hannah, for your kindness, wisdom, generosity of spirit and sharing all things beautiful with me.” – Beth
“I feel much lighter. I’m not carrying so much anxiety and fear. I feel like I’ve released a lot of the things (and people) I can’t control. I feel more gratitude and joy”. – Jackie
“I have felt a continued trust in letting go of my past and living in the present. I experienced a re-birth of sorts during our retreat that I will treasure forever. The joy that was present remains in my very cells. I promised myself I would take home abundance and leave being self-imposed lack and self-doubt. I will do my best to keep this promise to myself.
I feel I said most of what I wanted to in the questions above. However, I also want to add that you, Hannah, have a gift in making everyone feel comfortable and seen. I felt like you took the time to get to know everyone and spend a bit of time with each of us. You also know when to hang back. I felt I could trust you as the leader of the retreat to make good decisions when needed. I felt safe and contained enough to be vulnerable, even with a group of women most of whom I didn’t even know. You created that, and I thank you. It was an incredible experience and I can’t wait to come with you to Italy!” – Catherine
