Our Work Together

Community

2:00 - 4:00PM Grounds and villa are open for your arrival. Come in, get settled, and rest from your travels. &nbsp;Light refreshments will be available. 4:00 - 8:00 PM&nbsp; We begin to build our community on Monday afternoon and evening, introducing ourselves to one another and our beautiful surroundings. We’ll frame the week, and give you insight into the journey ahead. In deference to our international travelers, this will be an early evening to prepare for the week. Following a chef-prepared dinner, we’ll wrap by about 9 PM to give everyone a good night’s sleep.

Monday: Welcome & Connection

Day 1 

All times are approximate! 7:30 – 9:00 AM This is your time: you can work out, journal, sleep – whatever suits you and has you ready for the day 9:00 – 9:30 AM&nbsp; Each day, we’ll have a healthy and light breakfast, including plenty of robust Italian coffee, and other morning beverages&nbsp; 9:30 – 12:30 PM Our morning session each day begins with a mind-body connection aligned to our focus for the day. &nbsp;Each day will bring new insights and will build on prior content. We’ll spend our mornings challenging your thinking, providing new frameworks and opening possibilities. Group and individual work fosters clarity and insight into what’s most important and relevant for you.<ul> <li>Tuesday’s work is around getting you settled for the week: a look back to look forward, and insight into what’s true for you – right now.</li></ul>12:30 – 6:00 PM Each of our full days together has three components: learning with a connection to our surroundings, a hands-on experience to expand our thinking, creativity and boundaries, and, of course, fabulous Italian meals. Our Tuesday – Thursday excursions may include any of the following:&nbsp;<ul> <li>A guided walking tour of the hilltop towns of Italy</li> <li>A museum visit with a local art guide</li> <li>A hands-on cooking class with a resident chef</li> <li>A visit to centuries-old olive groves and &nbsp;vineyards including wine and olive oil tasting</li></ul>Please note that we do a LOT of walking throughout the week. And often on cobblestone streets or up and down picturesque &nbsp;(and uneven!) steps. Your physical fitness and comfort are important to us, so please plan accordingly. 6:00 – 8:00 PM Free time. Our time together will be rich, and we want to ensure that you have time to review/reflect/renew. Of course, you can always use this time to connect with your villa-mates or to send postcards home. Or take a walk. Or maybe a nap? It’s your time. You decide. 8:00 – 10:00 PM We’ll dine like the Italians: later in the evening, in the community, and with carafes of wine and sparkling water at the ready. Italians are known for amazing food, and the tradition of breaking bread together is an important component of our Nova retreats. We believe in fostering community and unstructured conversation over dinner. We’ll review the day, make connections to our personal and professional insights, and have a sneak peek of what’s still to come in our collective journey.

Tuesday: Insight & Exploration

A note about Friday: On Friday, our morning schedule will look roughly the same as the rest of the week, and we’ll spend time making sure you’re equipped to move forward. Leveraging the insight, knowledge, and the power of the community you’ve created throughout the week, you’ll define a plan to move from Insight to Action. With ample time to salute your journey, we’ll wrap up the day by 3 PM. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Optional: A Friday Night Sleepover! Because many international flights depart in the early morning or mid-day, please savor your time in the villa one more night, if you’d like. If you choose to depart on Saturday morning, an unstructured Friday afternoon and evening could be a relaxing end to your visit.&nbsp; While our formal programming wraps Friday at 3 PM, you’re more than welcome to stay Friday night at no additional cost. Depending on the number of people staying, we can also coordinate plans for dinner on Friday evening. Alternatively, if you’re off to enjoy more of what this beautiful country has to offer, please plan your Friday travel so that you’re able to stay with us through our 3 PM close.&nbsp; We can facilitate your return trip to the airport or the train station on Friday afternoon or Saturday morning, and these transfer fees are included in your registration fees.&nbsp; Please note that Saturday departures should be complete by 10 AM local time.

Friday: Insight to Action

Day 5

We searched the world for the most beautiful backdrop to hold our destination immersions and we believe we found it! What better place to renew and inspire than in the heart of Italy, a country whose history is richly woven with creativity, artistry, beauty, and innovation.

Why Italy

Our retreat is in Italy, the birthplace of the Renaissance, and the perfect space to launch your personal renewal. You'll spend your retreat surrounded by breathtaking landscapes and sun-drenched hills. And that’s just the beginning - your private room will have you so comfortable you may never want to leave.

Your Home for the Week

Since our first destination immersion retreat in 2017, we’ve discovered that each retreat is unique. Because of the location.&nbsp; Because of the women who attend. Because of who and how you are,&nbsp; and the context of your life. We’ll start on Monday afternoon, and wrap mid-day Friday.&nbsp; Throughout the week, we’ll have small group work, facilitated discussions, and solo reflection time to outline your path to purpose. Our goal is to create a safe container for you for a week. We ask you to come ready for Insight and Inquiry. Come for our daily yoga or meditation practice. No experience required! Come for meals prepared by our private chef. Come for daily adventures to enjoy the local color and culture. This is all included in your immersion retreat – all you have to do is get to Italy in October. &nbsp;We keep it as “all-inclusive” as possible: all of your meals, accommodations, cultural excursions, and thought-provoking work with your new community of women is covered. Let someone take care of you for a change. From the time you register, we’ve got you!
