A Personal Journey to Transformation

If you’ve ever felt like you’ve created a high-paying job for yourself rather than a thriving asset, it's time to escape that cycle. This retreat is about finding freedom from stress and regaining control over your life and business.

Many entrepreneurs start with passion, but as the business grows, overwhelming stress and management demands can take over, leaving little time for what you love.

Managing a team? It can be daunting, and for some, a dreaded aspect of business growth.

But let’s be clear: our retreat isn’t a quick fix for those not willing to invest the effort.

It’s crafted for women like you, ready to dive deep, take significant action, and embrace both growth and fulfilment.

This retreat is for the seriously committed, those who value hard work as much as they do play and relaxation.

And of course, a sense of adventure is a must – after all, we’re in Italy!

Expect to work hard, but also to indulge in the delights of Rome, from exploring ancient ruins to savoring exquisite wines at an award-winning vineyard, and unwinding in one of the most stunning Roman spas.

This isn't just a retreat; it’s a transformative experience, a slice of heaven on earth. Are you ready to join us?

Welcome to the Villa Tuscolana

 Where Timeless Elegance Meets Modern Luxury

Video Poster Image

Built in 1578 and perched gracefully on the slopes of Mount Tuscolo, one of Rome's legendary seven hills, this regal 16th-century villa whispers tales of antiquity and grandeur. The Villa Tuscolana, built over the residence of ancient Roman Marcus Tullius Cicero, has been the jewel in the crown of Europe's elite.

From the aristocratic Rufini family to the noble lines of Prince Lucien Savoy and King Victor Emmanuel, its walls have embraced Italian and French nobility, including  Napoleon Bonaparte. As you step through its grand portals, be prepared to be captivated by the breathtaking views of Rome and the Vatican City.

The outdoor pool, nestled amidst the manicured gardens, invites you to immerse yourself in tranquility, while the gaze of history watches over you.

Indulge in a symphony of relaxation at the Lympha Spa, where modern luxury meets ancient tradition.

Unwind in the hot tub, rejuvenate in the sauna or bask in the solarium. Embrace serenity in the hamman, or surrender to the soothing hands of expert masseuses. The indoor pool, built within natural grottos harking back to Roman times, offers an oasis of peace.

The Renaissance in Rome Retreat is more than just a stay; it's a journey through time, a celebration of history, luxury, and the untouched splendour of Italy. Unearth hidden confidence and reignite your drive as you elevate your leadership and business acumen in an environment that has inspired leaders for centuries.
