Creative Life Coaching

“Part consultant, part motivational speaker, part therapist and part rent-a-friend, coaches work with managers, entrepreneurs, and just plain folks, helping them define and achieve their goals -- career, personal or, most often, both." -- Newsweek

Workshops

Summon the Spirit of Your Creative Self

Make your life a work of art on this journey of discovery. This inspiring workshop calls upon introspection, collaboration, discussion and guided exercises to awaken the visionary within. Facilitated by acclaimephotographer and therapist, Diane Epstein, it seeks to open the mind's eye, coax long-held dreams to life and banish self-sabotaging habits. This gathering promises to call forth the playful, insightful and daring elements of the Creative Self, not for a weekend, but for a lifetime.

In the heart of ancient Rome, in a 1700's palazzo hidden behind the Forum, in the neighborhood of Monti, we'll bring our drawing pads, cameras, journals - and our venturing artistry - as we visit the Palatino and other areas of the centro storico. Immersed in Rome's hidden alleyways, ancient ruins, marketplaces, and piazzas, we'll encounter the Muse in the exotic as well as the commonplace. Each day we'll explore distinctive tools of nurturing creativity - from visualization and spontaneous drawing and writing to photography and artistic expression. Participants will investigate the mystery of 'multi-dimensional art', the spontaneity of collage, the natural ingenuity of storytelling - and, most notably, the joys of the culinary arts.

Don't miss this unforgettable lesson in the art of transcendent living.

Retreats in the Italian Countryside

Think about all the amazing breakthroughs that can happen when you dedicate a few days or a week to exploring your creative potential, communicating more clearly and learning how to realize your dreams in a beautiful, tranquil setting.

We will do various experiential exercises, enjoying the company and inspiration of other like-minded individuals, eating healthy foods and getting out into the fresh air, designing our "dream" life as we live together in an "ideal" setting for a weekend or a week.
