#50 - Purpose over Perfection - Make It Sweet, Tuscan Retreat

Have you ever struggled to find the right time, especially when you're in the thick of running a household, and raising your beautiful kids, have you ever found yourself wanting to take a little break, a little vacation and just have a breather, a reset, and some space to reconnect to yourself, your dreams, your inner voice, your purpose?   You love being a mother, you love your life, but you also would love something to rekindle your spark, to light your fire, maybe you need some girl time, but you've told yourself not yet - you're too needed on the homefront?   I certainly have. And my guests today are here to show us how they felt the same way too, and how they've created the exact experience your soul might be craving to have those needs, that inner fulfillment you are yearning for, met.   In this episode, travel experts Maria and Gina, share their dream of taking women to Tuscany, Italy - in an easy, affordable way. You'll discover: How to make room for an adventure even when it feels hard. Why Italy holds magic for your motherhood, your dreams and your marriage. The Italian approach to creating purpose over perfection. How to rekindle friendships with women that will restore your soul in a supportive way. Why everything is figureoutable, even when it doesn't feel like it is. If you want to stop feeling stuck and rekindle your spark in every way, these lessons learned from Maria and Gina are for you. I met Maria and Gina years ago when our kids were toddlers and was immediately impressed by them. Then, I saw them run their own businesses alongside motherhood while mastering the art of the side-hustle. They work with their Italian-American mother in her business Four Retro Sisters, which is a vintage/modern handcrafted shop for hand-sewn aprons. They ship their aprons all over the world to happy shop owners, grandmothers, and women so they can make magic in their homes. In addition to the apron business, their Make Life Sweet - Tuscan Retreats they hold in Italy twice a year help women discover the hidden gems of Tuscany, Italy. The days are spent exploring medieval hilltop towns, delighting in authentic food, and enjoying off-the-beaten path experiences. I hope you'll put Maria's and Gina's wisdom into action as soon as you can. If you want to go on an adventure - and nurture deep, meaningful friendships - this is the way to do it! Italy has never been easier and more affordable!
