Tuscany, 30 May - 3 June 2026
You wake to golden Tuscan light pouring through open shutters, rolling hills and cypress trees stretching into the distance. Birds sing softly as the day begins. Yoga under wide skies. Nourishing local food. A like-minded community. Slow walks through sun-soaked villages and vineyards. Plenty of time to rest, reconnect, and soak up the calm, grounded beauty of Tuscany.
I know that you're a committed woman, who respects her time, appreciates life and won't settle for less than what you deserve and that's exactly why when something is bothering you, you take action instead of complaining about it for months on end.
What you truly need right now is space to step out of your everyday patterns and into an environment that supports you. To be held by a community of women who understand overthinking, self-doubt, and the quiet exhaustion of always holding it together, and who gently invite each other to grow. This retreat is a chance to reconnect with yourself, rebuild trust from within, and create a more grounded, intentional, and deeply fulfilling life.
✓ You're exercising, trying meditation, maybe even dipping your toe into yoga, listening to the self-help podcasts and reading all the right books. you feel inspired immediately after but the busy mind and self-critical thoughts creep back in, and you have this constant feeling like there’s something else missing.
✓ You've got what you thought you needed to have on paper, like being a mother or having a secure job, but the truth is you're not feeling 100% content and sometimes you feel guilty about it because you can’t even point out the reason for it.
✓ You're often faced by a version of yourself that you don't even recognise, like the one who snaps at their partner, or falls into victim mentality, or someone who can't make decisions, and when you do you doubt them
✓ You're going about your day without really thinking about your thoughts and actions, you spend more time than you'd like mindlessly scrolling, then giving yourself a hard time about it, but you're not sure how to break the cycle and transform the auto-pilot habits
✓ You spiral over constructive critism or external comments. If someone at work or a friend makes a comment, you see it as a personal attack and can't seem to shake it off.
✓ You get caught up in negative spirals, catasrophic thinking and always thinking the worst
✓ You have something you want to create like a business or a big change in your life, but you have a lot of fear and limiting beliefs standing in the way

After struggling with my mental health in teenagehood, the suppression of it turned into anxiety in my 20’s.
I was stuck living on auto-pilot, I wasn’t aware of my thoughts, actions or feelings and I didn’t even know I could change them. I identified all of them with “me”. I was living with anxiety, stuck in victim mentality and people-pleasing. I spent most of my weekends drinking and socialising in order to ‘forget’, and when I didn’t have that to look forward to, I booked travel to escape through ‘exploring the world’.
Then I learnt how to connect to my mind and body. I did this through yoga initially, practising in my living room every day to YouTube, but I showed up with consistency and dedication. I began a journey of self-awareness, which I did by becoming more present, being brave to ask the deeper questions and answering them honestly, and by putting myself out my comfort zone and trying new things to discover more about connection and spirituality.
When I became aware of my thoughts and I learnt how to transform them in order to transform my life. When my thoughts changed, my life changed.
I got to feel at peace just being present, in love with who I am and my life and connected and trusting in something greater than just me, I flow through life with more grace, presence and ease.
Today I bring all these elements inside my retreats and programmes: physical yoga practise to move and reconnect with your body and feel energised, breath and meditation, self-development workshops for self-awareness, emotional regulation and goal setting providing all the tools that have helped me over the past 10 years, journaling and 1-1 work to ask yourself the deeper questions.
You will get to embrace sisterhood and community so you won’t feel alone in your journey, hearing the stories and journeys from other women will help you feel inspired and reassured, because the people you surround yourself with in a growing chapter is everything.
My studies not only include physical asana practise training, but Bhakti Yoga teacher trainings too which enabled me to gain a deeper understanding of yoga roots and how to hold devotional love in our hearts. I taught asana practise for over 5 years in studios and privately with women before launching the Intentional Living Community, which has served almost 100 women across the world and changed the lives of women who have applied and learnt the simple tools I teach.
My mission is simple: to help women see they’re not stuck as they are, that change is possible anytime, and that they have the power to heal themselves.
11 years ago, I went to visit my friends who had a family estate in Tuscany. I completely fell in love with the energy this space brings and I have such a strong history with it that it fit every piece of the puzzle to host this retreat here. It's the perfect landscape to find true, long-lasting inspiration and peace in your heart. I just know it will offer you everything it has offered me in my life and I can't wait to share it with you.
The retreat will take place at Villa Cassavecchia, nestled in the rolling hills of the Tuscan countryside, just a short drive from the charming town of San Casciano. Surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and timeless landscapes, this peaceful sanctuary offers an authentic taste of rural Italy while remaining easily accessible from nearby towns and airports.
This beautifully restored villa is immersed in nature, where quiet paths and open spaces invite slow walks, rest, and reflection. The land surrounding the villa offers a deep sense of calm, allowing you to fully switch off and sink into the slower rhythm of countryside living.
From the villa and its outdoor spaces, enjoy sweeping views across the Tuscan hills, with golden light stretching over the landscape from sunrise to sunset. Spend your afternoons unwinding by the outdoor pool, soaking in the stillness and warmth of your surroundings, or finding a quiet spot to read, journal, or simply be.
