Dreams, Age and A New Substack

So I started Dream of Italy 23 years ago (whoa!) and for a long time I thought I was in the content business or travel business but at soon realized I am in the dream business. Italy is something so many of us long for, an aspiration, a touchstone, a connection to the past and a desire for the future. Just like our dreams are. Along the way I became so interested in the courage and the practical know-how it takes to make our dreams come true.

I started a new Substack called Kathy McCabe Dreams…At Mid-Life to take my work a step further and opening it up to all kinds of dreams, not just “of Italy” and how we honor our dreams from a unique vantage point in life, middle age.

My first Substack post explores my back story of how fulfilling my grandfather’s long-held dream gave birth to my own BIG dream of Italy and reveals a powerful exercise on how to hone in on your own dreams and desires.

If you’ve ever wondered how old I am, you will want to read my second Substack post…where I share the unusual reason why I decided to share my age publicly (here’s the mid-life part of my content)!  But be sure my mother is rolling over in her grave because I’ve shared my age but times are maybe changing! 

I hope you will subscribe (it is free) for some of this more personal content. There is a paid subscription option too and if you choose that you will receive a BONUS 6-month digital membership to Dream of Italy (for yourself or to gift to someone else) and that includes our How to Move to Italy Virtual Workshop in July!  — Kathy McCabe
