Publisher's Synopsis
What inspires someone to leave behind the life they've built in search of something completely different? For one New Zealand businesswoman, the answer lay in chasing a long-held dream of becoming an artist and embracing the adventure of life in a foreign land.
When an unexpected email from Italy landed in Eva's inbox, it became the catalyst for her bold decision to pack up her comfortable life in New Zealand and head to a medieval village nestled in the hills of Abruzzo. Leaving behind decades of business success and a loving, supportive husband, Eva set off on a personal quest to rediscover a part of herself that had been overshadowed by years of long work hours and strong ambition.
This move wasn't just about art-it was about confronting the fears and doubts that had held her back. Through long days of solitude, somewhere along the way she reinvented herself. Eva shares her story in this part-memoir, part-practical guide designed for women seeking inspiration during life's transitions. Her experience is a reminder that it's never too late to make meaningful changes, no matter your stage in life.
Eva's journey invites readers to explore how to find joy and fulfilment in even the smallest moments, showing that contentment is often hidden in unexpected places. With warmth and honesty, she provides practical insights into how slowing down after a bustling career can lead to discovering who you truly are.
This is a story of creativity, resilience, and the determination to build a life that feels authentically yours. Whether you're contemplating a major life change or simply searching for a bit of inspiration, Eva's journey proves that dreams don't come with an expiration date-they're always waiting, ready to be pursued.
