Ferrari World in Milan took my breath away today, not because of the polished red shells lined up in the showroom, but because of the story that lives behind them.
Enzo Ferrari’s passion was never really about the car you see on the surface. His obsession was with the engine, the power within. He once said, “I don’t sell cars; I sell engines. The cars I throw in for free since something has to hold the engines in.” That kind of conviction struck a chord in me.
Because isn’t that the truth about us too? We spend so much of life chasing the outside, the reflection in the mirror, the number on the scale, how others see us. But at this stage of life, I know deeply: the outside is just a shell. The real freedom, the real radiance, comes from the engine inside.
When the core is alive, when the breath flows, when the spine lifts, everything changes. Energy returns. Confidence shows up without forcing it. Even a simple walk through cobblestone streets or saying yes to a scoop of gelato in Milan 🍦 feels lighter, easier, more joyful.
That’s what Circle (and now Circle+) is about. Not sculpting the outer shell, but helping women build and nurture their engines, the strength, clarity, and vitality that carry us forward in every part of life.
Ferrari reminded me today: beauty on the outside is only as powerful as the engine within. And I believe the same for us as women, when we invest in our inner strength, everything else falls into place.
