Discover wisdom in the sands of Morocco with Cristina DiGiacomo

What if you could learn life-changing philosophies in a place that feels like it’s been painted by the gods of sun, sand and sea? Picture a week where time slows, your senses awaken and ideas from history’s greatest thinkers become your guiding light. That’s exactly what awaits you at a remarkable 7-night retreat in Morocco, led by Cristina DiGiacomo—Chief Philosophy Officer, global advisor and a driving force in using philosophy to empower leaders and transform lives.

Cristina has spent two decades navigating the complexities of the corporate world at industry-leading organizations like The New York Times, Citigroup, AMC Networks and more. Her academic rigor, grounded in a Master of Science in Organizational Change Management and a decade studying Practical Philosophy, has shaped her unique approach. Today, she leads executives and entrepreneurs to new heights by teaching them how to draw strength, insight and resilience from the timeless wisdom of Socrates, Lao Tzu, Marcus Aurelius, Emerson, Plato, Epictetus and Ficino.


Now, this April, Cristina brings her expertise to the tranquil shores of Morocco. The retreat focuses on “The 7 Questions for Life”—a series of daily workshops and discussions designed to help you integrate Philosophy into your everyday reality. Much like the sprawling dunes and soft ocean breezes that surround you, these sessions help you navigate the shifting sands of work and life with renewed clarity, confidence and purpose.


Your home base will be a luxurious beachfront resort where rooms boast sweeping views of endless sand dunes and the calming ocean. You’ll start each day with Sun Salutations, setting a tone of mindfulness and presence before delving into philosophical inquiry. Between philosophical discussions, immerse yourself in Morocco’s rich cultural tapestry: learn the secrets of local cuisine in an authentic cooking class, rejuvenate with a traditional hammam spa and massage, and wander through bustling souks to spark your curiosity and joy.


As the sun dips below the horizon, enjoy a sunset camel ride along the Tamri River and Banana Fields, where the journey, like nature's cycles, is fluid and ever-changing. You'll also get to experience a local Fantasia show, where horsemen, acrobats and traditional dancers bring ancient traditions to life under starry skies. Throughout the week, you’ll have ample time to reflect, journal and connect with a community of like-minded seekers. Together, you’ll integrate the insights drawn from history’s greatest thinkers into your own evolving narrative.


This retreat is not about escaping life; it’s about engaging with it more fully, guided by Cristina’s compassionate mentoring and the power of time-honored wisdom.
