Judith Valente is an award-winning author, poet, and former correspondent for PBS and NPR whose work bridges journalism, spirituality, and contemplative living. In her latest book, The Italian Soul: How to Savor the Full Joys of Life, she offers a tender, luminous exploration of the Italian way of life—one that prizes beauty, balance, reverence for tradition, and the art of savoring the moment.

Drawing from her time walking the cobblestone streets of Italy and engaging with its soulful rhythms, Judith distills timeless lessons about living with greater delight, dignity, and depth. A spiritual seeker beyond the boundaries of institutional religion, she invites readers into a more intentional, joyful way of being in the world. Her work is a call to reawaken our senses, our sacred attention, and our connection to what truly matters.
