Travel can mean different things to different people. For some, it’s a way to escape the hustle and grind of everyday life and simply unwind. To others, travel can be a pathway to greater self-discovery and transformation. It was surely the latter for Kathy McCabe, who initially traveled to Italy to connect with her culture but opened up a world to so much more. This week on Journeys Through Change, my guest Kathy McCabe and I are talking about her journey from finding her roots to producing and hosting the popular PBS series, “Dream of Italy.”

Kathy McCabe is a writer, producer, and Founder of the award-winning travel publication “Dream of Italy.” Her magazine’s success led to her hosting and producing a series based on the magazine, “Dream of Italy” that can be watched on PBS, Amazon Prime, and now YouTube! In addition to her “Dream of Italy” series, Kathy just wrapped on her next PBS series, “Dream of Europe,” premiering in January 2025! Kathy inspires audiences to explore and embrace the Italian way of life, whether at home, while traveling, or if they feel called to move there - to see for themselves how profoundly life-changing it can be.



In this episode, Kathy and I discuss:

  • Kathy’s deep connection to Italy through her Italian-American heritage and the transformative experiences she has had traveling there.
  • How Kathy took her successful “Dream of Italy” magazine and turned it into a TV series that only further opened the doors of opportunity.
  • Visa options and advice for those looking to live and work in Italy.
  • What Kathy plans to do next now that her next series, “Dream of Europe” has finished wrapping.



Change is inevitable. That’s why I designed the Day by Daybook®, a guided journal to help you face the discomfort of those shifts in life that are pushing you to that next level of growth and learning. Get your Day by Daybook® here.
