A Transcendence Experience

Who is this for?
You might be a social media writer looking to work on your first book, a series of articles, or to level up your writing skills.
Or you are someone who has built a successful brand and career, and wants to leave your impact and legacy in a book to inspire others and scale your impact.
You may even be a seasoned author who wants to work on your next book in an inspiring location with other writers around.
Above all, you know you have something to share with the world (even if you don't know exactly what it is), and want a week of dedicated space in a beautiful environment with like-minded people to do nothing but write.
No matter where you're at in your writing journey, if you're serious about focusing on a project you feel you're destined to bring to the world, this retreat is for you.
All ages, genders, and backgrounds are welcome.
Even if you don't have a specific book or project to work on, but you just want to spend a week writing, you are also welcome (:
Where will we be staying?
We will be staying in a beautiful, classical castle in Bosisio Parini, Italy.
The mansion is 45 minutes from Milan, 10 from Lecco, and 40 from Como.
The town of Bosisio Parini is a quiet, picturesque village nestled along the shores of Lake Pusiano in northern Italy. Surrounded by rolling green hills and the foothills of the Alps, it feels peaceful, historic, and deeply Italian.
Unlike busy tourist hubs like Como or Milan, Bosisio is small and intimate. Cobblestone streets wind between pastel houses, old stone churches, and small piazzas where locals gather for espresso. In the mornings you hear church bells, birds, and the gentle movement of the lake.
This makes a perfect spot for writing and immersing yourself into the calm and tranquil Italian culture.










How will this work?
Each day, we will have 4-6 dedicated hours purely for writing.
Outside of that time, we will go for walks, swims, workouts, and meals.
We will also have workshops on writing, business, energy, reality creation, and enhancing your creativity.
You will have plenty of time to do your own thing if that's your vibe, or to mastermind and chat with other retreat members over swims, walks, or glasses of wine. :)
You are welcome to write more than the dedicated time, but the 4-6 devoted hours will be a disciplined practice with group accountability.
Workshops
- The art & business of social media writing
Digital marketing, personal branding, and building a business off the backend of your writing - Unlocking the creative mind through the body
The power of somatics, dance, and music for loosening the mind - The nature of creativity & the skill of focus
Flow psychology, neuroscience, and the art of peak performance - And more!
What's included?
The ticket price covers the Airbnb, all workshops, and 3 meals a day from a private chef.
We will likely go out to eat in town a few times, and the ticket price will not cover these meals. There is, of course, an option to stay back if you do not want to go out to dinner with the group.
You will also gain 1 year of access to the Transcendence University membership.
