One month since our second annual Cloud Nine Fall immersion in the Italian Dolomites, and I’m still reflecting on everything that unfolded 🦋🏞️🌹

Nine days immersed in the beauty of the natural world, exploring the senses, elements, art, human connection, and the many ways we experience life.

One of the most meaningful parts of this year’s experience was that all women in this years immersion attended last year’s immersion - and chose to return!

Last year marked the beginning of a year of exploring and deepening self-connection, awareness, and intentional life design together through our group program (wellness empowered); they arrived with a much deeper understanding of themselves, the facilitators and the environment, making the experience truly profound.

There was something incredibly meaningful about witnessing how each woman had evolved over the year and having the opportunity to explore new layers of that growth together in an extraordinary environment.

This year, art became an especially beautiful part of that exploration.
Through our time with artists, we explored perception, perspective, time, and space. The creative process became a reflection of life itself, inviting us to loosen our attachment to how things should look and become curious about what else might be possible.

And woven throughout it all were the moments that are harder to put into words. The conversations, laughter, shared meals, quiet reflections, and the simple pleasure of experiencing something beautiful together.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been meeting with each woman for our post-immersion integration sessions on zoom. We’ve been exploring what has stayed with them and how they are brining those discoveries into their daily lives at home.

I’ve always believed that the environments we inhabit and the experiences we choose shape how we see ourselves and what’s possible for our lives.

And perhaps that’s what makes these immersions so meaningful to me. Not simply the extraordinary places we visit or the experiences we share, but what continues to unfold long after we return home.

The most well people I know seem to have an intimacy with who they are.

They know what matters to them.
They know what makes them feel alive.
And their lives actually reflect it.
You could call that authenticity.
You could call it alignment.
You could call it living your dharma or knowing your ikigai.

I think it’s what happens when the way you’re living stops being at odds with who you are.

To me this is freedom, it’s wellness, it’s the meaning of life!

What do you think?

Fall in the Dolomites is so sweet to the eyes you will return home with a tummy ache

15/09/2026

Nine days in the Italian Dolomites to slow down, experience something extraordinary, and reconnect with what makes you feel alive.

Because the point isn’t simply to come home with beautiful memories. It’s to come home knowing yourself and the world a little more clearly.

October 7–15.
Two spots left. 🇮🇹
Comment ITALY and I’ll send you the details. ☁️

The landscape creates the interruption.
The team guides the exploration.
Integration brings it home.

I couldn’t be more grateful for the humans behind Cloud Nine’s Dolomites Immersion.

They’re the difference between visiting a place and being immersed in it.

2 spots left. Grab a bestie and experience the Dolomites from the inside, with soul.

Do it for little you

Sometimes you have to step outside of your life to see it clearly.

Not because something is wrong.
Not because you need an escape.
And not because the answer is to abandon everything and start over.

But because when the usual noise, roles, routines, and expectations fade, different questions become possible.

I’ve become an expert at these questions because I’ve spent over a decade stepping out of the US for months at a time and asking myself these questions :

What actually matters to me?
What lights me up and makes me feel alive?
Does the way I’m living leave space for that?

This is why I started hosting my own retreats.
But I like to call them immersions.
Because the intention behind these experiences is to immerse yourself in a new environment, culture, and way of life.

And to observe how that makes you *feel*.
Because believe it or not, the goal isn’t to create a life you need to regularly retreat or escape from in order to feel like yourself.
It’s to intentionally immerse yourself in a new (and specific) environment surrounded by (specific) people so that you can return home more connected to yourself - and use what you discovered to build a life that supports your vitality.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the difference between a life that works and a life that actually feels like you.

Especially for capable women.

Because when you’re good at adapting, achieving, taking responsibility, and figuring things out, you can make almost anything work.

Even something that doesn’t quite fit.

And sometimes the answer isn’t to optimize the life you have. (That seems to be the trending answer).

Sometimes you need enough space from it to hear yourself again.

That’s what Cloud Nine Immersions are designed to create.

Not an escape.

An inscape.
(I know, I know, more on this word later 😜)

Our next one takes us back to the Italian Dolomites this October. Nine days. Five women. Two spaces remain.

If something in this feels familiar, comment INSCAPE and I’ll send you the details.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the difference between creating space for ourselves and disappearing into it.

I moved to New Mexico knowing almost no one after 13 years of almost constant movement.

On paper, that could look a lot like retreating 😂

But I didn’t come here because I wanted less of life. I came because I wanted enough quiet to hear what I actually want more of.

And that’s the question I’ve been sitting with lately:

What is the space for?

Is it helping us come back to our lives more fully—or giving us somewhere beautiful to hide?

It’s also why I believe so deeply in retreat. Not as escape, but as space with a purpose.

That’s what I’m creating in the Dolomites this October.

There’s still a place at our table. DM me ITALY if you feel like it might be yours.
