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 Midlife 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 midlife 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
