After fifteen books, countless interviews, years of teaching, and a career spent in wellness, Diana has a lot to say — and not just about wellness.
Her Substack is where she gets more personal.

She writes about the things she knows professionally — wellness, longevity, food, hospitality, entrepreneurship, and building The Retreat Costa Rica — alongside the things she has learned simply by living: marriage and divorce, motherhood and becoming a grandmother, finding love again, aging, ambition, travel, family, reinvention, and learning when to let go of what no longer fits.
Some pieces are about where wellness is going. Others are about a hotel she visited, a meal she can’t stop thinking about, working with her daughter, starting over, or why women shouldn’t become less ambitious as they get older.
It’s Diana in her own words: curious, candid, opinionated, experienced, and still learning.
What’s changing, what’s worth paying attention to, and what decades in wellness have taught her about what actually matters.
Love, divorce, aging, family, starting over, letting go, and all the unexpected chapters that make up a life.
Building The Retreat, being a female CEO, working with family, entrepreneurship, ambition, and the lessons no business book teaches you.
The places she loves, the hotels that get it right, what she notices when she travels, what she’s eating, and the experiences that stay with her.
