WHAT'S HOLDING YOU BACK... ISN'T YOU
It's not you — despite what most gurus insist…
It's not your idea, your habits, or sales skills…
IT IS:
1) Lack of environment enforcing your progress (physical + accountability)
2) Lack of marketing practice — not just more knowledge
You need: The right environment to actively practice preaching your message.

Yes, it is absolutely possible to become the person that thrives even in an unsupportive environment.

But - it's not human nature. And when you're starting out… you want to surround yourself with success.
THIS IS NOT A RETREAT.
THIS IS A REBUILD.
We don't do yoga to relax. We do tai chi to reclaim. We don't do sauna to mess around. We do sauna to release what's holding us back. We don't work just to earn. We work to contribute to the world with wild success.

BALANCE EVERY AREA OF YOUR LIFE
Marketing That Actually Happens
No more courses or programs. No more “someday.” This is where you press RUN, engage target customers, and hit the ground running. Through daily implementation of your marketing plan and focused creation, you’ll finally escape the learning vicegrip and take imperfect action - again, and again, and again.
Connection Like You've Never Felt
Finally — a space full of people who speak your language. Digital nomads, creators, visionaries and founders who get your drive, your doubts, and your thirst for more. No small talk, no masks — just real talk, deep bonds, and lifelong allies. Be engulfed by the crackling presence of a campfire & people with your specific breed of crazy.
Detox, Dialled By Science
Take part in components of a world-first protocol research-backed to target detoxification specifically for heavy metals and mould toxin release; two of the most insidious, silent saboteurs of high performance and vitality. Engineered for results. Designed for clarity. Backed by biology.
Spontaneous Adventure & Time of Your Life Laughs
Suddenly it’s 4pm and you’re racing barefoot down a mountain, laughing like a kid again with the crew you just met but already love. With cold dips, spontaneous hikes, and soul-stirring adventures outside your door — this is freedom, fun, and full-body YES.
WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?
Don't you wish fantasy met reality just a LITTLE more often in real life? Reimagined for ambitious adults needing both physical restoration and business momentum but with deficiencies in environment, energy or ingredients like accountability, focus and REPS for success.
WHAT IS ISTAR*?
ISTAR aims to become a World-First, Comprehensive One Year Toxic Accumulation Reversal program being created by Grazia Colabufo LL.D together with strategic business and medical professionals. ISTAR will be validated by 15 M.Ds upon launch. Until then we need PARTICIPANTS to help us validate key lifestyle (non-medical) aspects of the program via in-person experience, video testimonials and short interviews. This content will serve an incredibly pivotal role in ensuring ISTAR serves future patients and medical professionals.

*This is a very rare opportunity to play a founding role in ISTAR - but participation is entirely optional.

TENTATIVE BONUS #8: INTRO TO BUNNHISM
A Different Approach to Rest
Inspired by our neighbouring Buddhist monk and reimagined with an extraordinary twist: you may find yourself meditating in the silent presence of our sibling lionhead rabbits—gentle, intuitive beings with a rare sensitivity to human energy. Their mere presence invites a profound recalibration of your nervous system, naturally and effortlessly.
Where traditional mindfulness ends, Bunnhism begins.
Our rabbit companions may invite you into an aliveness that predates language and self-consciousness—where barefoot joy, spontaneous laughter, and untamed wonder were your native states. They do not teach. They remind—of a you that once existed before performance, pressure, or posture.
According to trauma science, awe and re-enchantment are key to restoring a sense of belonging in your body and world.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Can I really get work done?
ABSOLUTELY! We've designed the entire experience around the needs of remote workers. Reliable WiFi throughout the property, gorgeous working areas, and a community that respects focused work time. Far MORE productive than at home!
What's your cancellation policy?
We offer a 3-day grace period after payment. If anything changes or you change your mind within those 3 days, you'll receive a FULL refund, no questions asked. After that, the location is locked and cancellations are reviewed case-by-case.
What are the room arrangements like?
Most accommodations are TWIN ROOMS (2 people), with a few TRIPLE ROOMS available. We strive to place friends together when requested, and we always ensure same-sex room assignments unless you're traveling with a partner or friend group. Just let us know your preferences when booking, and we'll do our best to create comfortable arrangements for everyone!
How do you screen participants for safety?
Your safety is our TOP PRIORITY! We personally interview each participant via video call before confirming their spot. We also check social profiles and professional backgrounds. Our community values respect and kindness above all, and we maintain a strict code of conduct that everyone agrees to before joining.
Are hosts available on-site at all times?
YES! Our experienced hosts will be on-site and are available throughout your stay. They're there to ensure everything runs smoothly, handle any issues that arise, coordinate the space, and maintain a safe, welcoming environment for everyone.
Can I bring a friend or partner?
YES! We welcome pairs and small groups. Just let us know when booking so we can try to accommodate room preferences. Some shared rooms can be booked together. If you're coming solo, don't worry - most participants arrive on their own!
What's the vibe like? Is it a party atmosphere?
The vibe is BALANCED! We focus on creating a space that supports both productivity and connection. While we definitely have fun and social activities, wild parties aren't our style. Expect meaningful conversations, outdoor adventures, and plenty of respect for quiet time.
I have dietary restrictions beyond being vegan - can you accommodate?
ABSOLUTELY! We're experienced with accommodating various dietary needs. Just let us know your specific requirements when booking, and we'll make sure you're well-fed and happy!
How do I contact the host directly?
You can reach Grazia on WhatsApp: +46 76 437 2381. She's happy to send voice notes, quick videos, or chat things through before you book!
What's the nearest airport and how do I get to the property?
The nearest airport is Oslo. From there, you can take a shuttle bus, train, or rent a car to reach us. Exact travel details will be provided two months prior to event start date. At this time, we'll send you DETAILED transportation guides and can help coordinate shared rides with other participants arriving around the same time!
Do I need to participate in all activities?
NOT AT ALL! While our Hogwarts-inspired framework adds a layer of FUN and structure to the experience, all activities are completely optional. Many guests love the playful approach to personal development, but you're free to engage with it as much or as little as feels right for you. The core benefits - community, wellness, and productive work environment - remain regardless!
What should I know about the Norwegian weather during my stay?
We recommend LAYERING as mountain weather can change quickly - bring a light jacket, rain shell, and warmer options for evening activities. The crisp mountain air and stunning light conditions make this time PERFECT for both outdoor adventures and cozy indoor productivity!

The Origin Story
Mark and I moved to the Swedish forests and although it's an incredible place to build dreams, it's quiet — and I've always wanted to go to Hogwarts. (Who hasn't... ?)
Years ago, I told Mark this dream... he smiled.
The Entrepreneurial Journey
Since then we avoided it — because so many things could go wrong!
So we became entrepreneurs instead — and naturally, even more things went wrong.
I never stopped envisioning a place where strangers meet, launch a business, sell, and heal... all in one - with measurable results.
The ISTAR Lifestyle Approach
THE BODY: Key wellness & detox interventions (e.g. anti-inflammatory diet, sauna protocol, nervous system healing, heart rate variation regulation) of ISTAR are integrated and feedback recorded.
ISTAR IS BORN…
The Dream Begins
Mark and Grazia move to Swedish forests, where dreams take root
The Vision Forms
A place where strangers meet, launch businesses, sell, and heal—all with measurable results
ISTAR Is Born
The International Boarding Mini-School for Grown-Ups becomes reality
"I've always wanted to go to Hogwarts," Grazia confessed to Mark years ago in their Swedish forest home. Instead of dismissing this dream, they embraced the entrepreneurial path—facing challenges that only strengthened their vision.
Now, they're finally bringing to life that magical place where healing and business creation happen simultaneously. The result? A transformative experience in the Norwegian wilderness that combines the best elements of wellness retreat, business incubator, and yes—the camaraderie and wonder of Hogwarts.
THE FUTURE
Current Beta Phase
Validating key lifestyle (non-medical) aspects through in-person experiences

The prices for two full weeks is truly unbeatable when considering the luxury setting, Norwegian premises, included weekday supper, detox facilities and the website launch day! - This launch day is valued at over €2,000 alone (when comparing to competitors, custom web solutions are often in this range WITHOUT physical done-with-you presence).
In order to make this possible, we can offer a very limited number of seats at each price point. Once this cap is reached, you may be offered the next level ticket. Therefore, if budget is a concern, please apply without delay as these seats may already be filled.

  • Ask about our personalised and 1-1 bonuses offered as compensation for flexible attendance (we got your back!)
  • Contact our team to discuss dates that work best for you.

UTTERLY UNIQUE
NOT A Boo-Hoo Business Workshop
Most business workshops take place in sterile hotel conference rooms with fluorescent lighting and uncomfortable chairs. They focus exclusively on business tactics while ignoring the human needs of participants. Connection is artificial and networking feels forced.
NOT A Woo-Woo Wellness Retreat
Standard wellness retreats offer temporary relaxation but rarely address the fundamental life challenges that create stress. They provide pleasant experiences that fade quickly upon return to daily life, with little measurable impact on long-term health.
The ISTAR Experience
Take your shoes off. Dress focus-casual. Energise. Execute. Supported by a community of like-minded individuals who understand both your professional and personal journey.
