Where driven business women pause with purpose.

SPOONER | WISCONSIN

WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO PRESS PAUSE.

This isn’t just another business retreat. It’s the moment you step back, breathe deep, and finally hear what’s next.

Here’s a glimpse of what it looks and feels like when high-achieving women choose stillness, connection, and clarity on purpose.

🎥 Watch the recap from our last retreat. You’ll get it.

LA DOLCE VIDA.

('the sweet life')

Come hungry for connection, clarity, and cannoli.

This fall’s retreat is rooted in legacy and stirred with soul, featuring Kelly's Italian mother’s cherished recipes, served around a table designed for bold breakthroughs and belly laughs.

We’re bringing slow-simmered strategy, wine-soaked wisdom, and pasta-fueled possibility to every conversation.

Italian-inspired. Women-led. And absolutely unforgettable.

Mangia. Mastermind. Repeat.

THIS IS FOR YOU.

You’ve built the career. Juggled the roles. Kept the plates spinning.

But lately? You’ve been craving something quieter. Something real. Something that lets you take a breath and ask: What now?

This is for the high-achievers, deep-thinkers, and soul-led business women who don’t need another hustle.

That need a pause. With purpose.

MEET YOUR HOST.

Hi. I'm Kelly Lucente. For over 30 years, I’ve helped people define what makes them different and turn that into momentum. From entrepreneurs to Fortune 500 brands, clarity has always been the throughline.

But clarity doesn’t come when you're sprinting.
It comes when you pause.

I created this business retreat because I know the power of stepping away just long enough to see what’s next.

Whether it’s a breakthrough, a new idea, or simply the space to think again, Press Pause is built to get you there.

This isn’t time off. It’s time on purpose.

And I’ll be there to guide it.

WHAT SHE SAID.

Spending three days at Kelly's retreat with other incredible, career-oriented women was nothing short of transformative. Each woman brought her own story, strength, and spirit... grounded, real, and refreshingly willing to speak up and share.

From the moment we arrived, there was a sense of connection that only deepened with every laugh, late-night talk, and breakthrough moment. The breakout sessions were spot-on (equal parts strategy and soul) and the masterminds sparked fresh clarity and direction.

It wasn’t just a retreat; it was an experience of indulgence, insight, and intentional bonding. We walked away not just with new tools and ideas, but with a sisterhood that feels like it was always meant to be.

If you’re craving honest connection, professional growth, and a little bit of luxe along the way, Kelly's retreats deliver.
