From Boardroom to Villa: My Journey to Creating Life-Changing Retreats in Tuscany and Beyond

Helping women travel with ease, joy, and meaning with no planning required.

Ciao! I’m Janine, certified professional coach and dream maker, dedicated to curating unforgettable villa vacations and retreats in Tuscany.

If you’ve ever dreamed of strolling through sun-drenched vineyards, savoring handmade pasta under the stars, and immersing yourself in the heart of Italy without lifting a finger to plan it, then you’re in the right place.

With years of experience in Human Resources, coaching and travel planning, I specialize in transformational Tuscany small-group villa retreats for women who are ready to rediscover joy, build new connections, and embrace life’s next adventure. These aren’t just vacations, they’re soulful experiences designed with intention, ease, and a touch of magic.

From handpicked luxury villas to private tastings, artisan workshops, and off-the-beaten-path excursions, I handle every detail so you can simply show up and savor every moment. My guests enjoy privileged access to hidden gems and meaningful moments you won’t find in any guidebook, thanks to the deep relationships I’ve cultivated with local chefs, artisans, and guides over the years.

After leaving behind a fast-paced corporate career, I followed my heart; blending my passion for coaching with my love for Italy. Today, I help people just like you step confidently into new chapters through small group travel experiences in Tuscany that nourish the soul and ignite inspiration.
