Vita Nova means new life — a new start, a new way forward.
"We get to the core truth of what is really going on — and we help people begin a new life."
A private residence. A different kind of program. Mac and Laura work one on one with every person — four to five days every week — in a private home where you become family.

For people who have already tried other places
Many people come to Vita Nova after they have already tried rehab, therapy, treatment centers, or other programs and still have not gotten the results they needed.
That is exactly why Vita Nova exists. We are for people who need something different, something more personal, and something that gets to the real truth underneath the behavior.
For many people, Vita Nova is where something finally starts to change. Our goal is not repeat clients. Our goal is to help people heal, rebuild, and begin again the first time.
The core truth
We get to the core truth of what is really going on.
Vita Nova is built around one goal: helping people understand why they are doing what they are doing, and helping them begin a new life.
We do not just look at the surface problem. We look deeper. Substance abuse, anger, shame, relationship damage, family crisis, trauma, grief, burnout, and loss of direction are often symptoms of something deeper.
At Vita Nova, Mac and Laura spend real time with each client. We get to know the person, the family, the pain, the patterns, the temperament, the personality, and the truth underneath the behavior.
We understand that every person is different
Temperament matters.
Personality matters.
Family history matters.
Pain matters.
What happened to someone matters.
That is why we do not treat everyone the same. We work with each person in a deeply personal way to understand what is really going on and what needs to change. And when appropriate, we also work with family members and loved ones — because real healing does not happen in isolation.

What life at Vita Nova feels like
Built around people.
Vita Nova is not built around a cold schedule. It is built around people. Mac and Laura are here with you throughout the week — not just in scheduled conversations, but in real life. Talking, eating, walking, sitting together, working through what is going on, and learning how to rebuild.
The residence has 24-hour security and nursing support provided. Wellness is part of the experience — massage, yoga, physical activities, swimming, and other supportive services when appropriate.
Because we only work with a few clients at any given time, we are able to give each person the attention, care, and presence they deserve.
Golf. Pickleball. Fishing. Dinners out. Art. Gardening. Exercise. Whatever feeds the part of you that needs to be fed — we build the program around who you are.
Our goal is to give each client real time, real attention, and real personal involvement. Every day. Not on a schedule. As a way of life here.

What people say
In their own words.
"
I had been to several places before Vita Nova and saw very little results. After 30 days with you, I feel completely different. I feel like I finally have my life back.
— Alex
"
I feel like you saved my life. I had been drinking for years, and you helped me understand how to stop — but more importantly, you helped me understand why I was doing so many destructive things to myself. I could never repay you for giving me my life back.
— Liz
"
At Vita Nova, I felt like more than a client. I felt like a family member who was truly loved. Mac and Laura were so warm and welcoming, and I enjoyed the meals we shared together. More importantly, real healing took place in my mind and body. The two of you are remarkable.
— Marc
Vita Nova
means new life.
A new life. A new start. A new way forward. We help people step out of the old patterns, old pain, old reactions, and old ways of living — and begin again.
What we believe
People can be repaired.
We believe people can be repaired.
We believe broken lives, broken relationships, broken families, and broken spirits can still be rebuilt.
We believe people can come back from pain, shame, substance abuse, anger, loss, trauma, and mistakes.
We believe forgiveness matters — forgiveness of others, forgiveness of the past, and sometimes hardest of all, forgiveness of yourself.
Vita Nova is not about judgment. It is about truth, accountability, healing, rebuilding, and a real chance to begin again.
"You were never broken. You just needed someone to actually show up for you."
— Mac & Laura · Vita Nova
A completely different approach
Vita Nova is not traditional therapy. It is not standard rehab. It is not a cold program where someone sits in a room, tells their story for an hour, and then goes back to the same pain, habits, and confusion.
Vita Nova is real-life healing in a private residence, built around honesty, accountability, personal attention, temperament, family understanding, and human connection.
Mac tried the conventional programs. He kept going back. So before he built Vita Nova, he rebuilt the entire approach from the ground up — based on what actually creates lasting change in a real person's life. That lived experience is the foundation of Vita Nova.
VN
When you are ready, we move quickly.
When you reach out, someone will speak with you privately and respectfully about what is going on. Before you enter the residence, Mac or Laura will speak with you directly to make sure Vita Nova is the right fit.
We are not trying to fill beds. We are trying to heal hearts, help people, and create real change. This is our private residence, and we only want people here who are ready, willing, and a true fit for what Vita Nova offers.

Who we are
People who have lived it. People who overcame it.
Mac and Laura did not build Vita Nova from a textbook. They built it from their own lives — from the pain, the mistakes, the searching, and the rebuilding.
"Traditional therapy and treatment did not give Mac and Laura the answers they needed. They had to discover what actually helped them rebuild — what really works, not the clinical distance. That is what Vita Nova is built on."
— Mac & Laura · Founders, Vita Nova
Mac
Founder · Vita Nova
Mac has spent decades building businesses and leading people. He built and scaled a $1 billion revenue operation. He has also been through addiction himself — and came out the other side. Not through a program. By figuring out what actually works.
Mac spends real time with every person — one on one, face to face, in real life — helping them understand themselves and learn how to live differently.
Laura
Co-Founder · Vita Nova
Laura is a former National Account Executive at Zillow, COO, and certified DISC practitioner who rang the Nasdaq bell. She brings operational precision, warmth, and genuine personal connection to every person who walks through the door.
Together, Mac and Laura give every client something no facility can offer — two people who are genuinely invested in their outcome.
Vita Nova is not a hospital, treatment center, or traditional rehab facility. Vita Nova is a private residence with a different kind of program designed by Mac and Laura. This is a private, personal, high-touch environment where clients are seen, heard, understood, and guided in a deeply personal way. Mac and Laura are here with you — not watching from a distance.
24-hour security provided. Nursing support provided as part of the residence.
Our approach
Nothing like this exists anywhere else.
This is not therapy. Not rehab. Not a clinical program with rotating staff and group sessions. This is something entirely different — and the difference is everything.
What makes Vita Nova different
You are paying for something no one else can offer.
Conventional rehab programs are built around clinical systems — rotating staff, group therapy, one-hour sessions, insurance billing, and the same program delivered to everyone who walks through the door. They are not built around you. They cannot be. They have too many people and not enough time.
Vita Nova is built entirely around you. One person at a time. One conversation at a time. In a private home where Mac and Laura are with you every single day.
Mac works with you one on one — four to five days every week. Not a rotating counselor. Not a group session. Mac. Every time.
You live in a private residence — not a facility with hallways and clipboards and strangers walking past your door.
The number of people here at any given time is never more than eight. You are never lost in a crowd. You always have our full attention.
Mac and Laura have both been through their own version of this. They are not reading from a textbook. They are speaking from their own lives.
Mac built the entire approach from the ground up — after going through conventional programs himself and finding the same revolving door most people find. What he built is different because it is built on what actually works.
Every program is built around your temperament, your personality, your history, your family, and the real truth underneath your behavior — not a clinical diagnosis applied to everyone in the same way.
You leave with a written re-entry plan, a full DISC behavioral profile, and direct follow-up from Mac — not a pamphlet and a handshake.
The outings — this is what elite looks like
Life does not stop while you are here.
One of the most important things Vita Nova does — and something no traditional program offers — is taking you back into real life while you are still with us. Not in a clinical setting. In the real world. Because that is where the work has to hold.
What we do together
Golf — a round with Mac is one of the best conversations you will ever have
Pickleball and tennis — movement clears the mind in a way nothing else does
Fishing and time on the water — South Florida from the water is something else entirely
Dinners out — real restaurants, real social situations, Mac right there with you
Art and creative expression — for those who need a different kind of outlet
Gardening — something grounding about working with your hands in the earth
Exercise, swimming, and movement — every morning if that is what you need
Whatever feeds the part of you that needs to be fed — we build around who you are
Why this matters
Most programs keep you inside their walls and then send you back into a world you were not prepared for. The golf course where everyone has a drink at the 19th hole. The business dinner where the wine list comes around. The family gathering where the old tension is still there.
Mac takes you into those situations before you leave. He coaches you through them in real time. You practice responding differently — not in theory, but in reality — while you still have him right next to you.
You do not just leave better. You leave ready.
"The hardest part is not getting better inside a residence. The hardest part is staying better when real life comes back. We prepare you for that."
— Mac · Vita Nova
The elite difference

Rotating staff or group sessions
Private airport transportation. A private car is dispatched to your door. You arrive at the residence — not a facility, not a check-in desk. Mac and Laura are at the door. Your room has your name on it. There are flowers. There is a handwritten note. From this moment, you are family.
Twice-weekly massage. A private massage therapist comes to the residence. Not a spa — your home. Part of the weekly rhythm, not an add-on you pay extra for. Recovery is physical as much as it is emotional.
Private licensed therapist. A contracted therapist visits the residence independently. One more layer of professional support — alongside Mac's daily work, not instead of it.
Weekend private chef. Saturday and Sunday, a private chef comes to the residence and builds the weekend menu around what everyone wants that week. During the week, Mac and Laura cook with you. Meals together are one of the most important parts of the Vita Nova experience.
24-hour private security. Non-uniformed, on-site, around the clock. You never see them and you never need to think about them. They are simply there.
DISC behavioral assessment. Laura is a certified DISC practitioner. Every client receives a full behavioral profile — understanding your natural wiring changes everything about how Mac works with you and how you understand yourself.
What we help with
Most people come here with layers of pain.
Vita Nova is for people dealing with more than one problem. Most people do not come here with just one issue. They come here with layers of pain, damage, habits, fear, regret, and confusion.

People who feel stuck, broken, or out of control
You do not have to know exactly what to call it. You just have to know that something has to change.
Vita Nova is a private wellness residence and personal transformation program. We do not provide medical detox, emergency psychiatric care, or hospital-level treatment. All clients are medically stable upon arrival.
Program options
Every person is different. Every program is built around you.
Four programs — 14 days, 30 days, 60 days, and 90 days — plus custom. All-inclusive. Full payment before arrival. Every program discussed personally on your first call with Mac or Laura.
14-Day Program
Intensive Reset
$45,000 · All-Inclusive
Sometimes the most urgent thing is getting out. Out of the environment, out of the pattern, out of the daily situation that is making everything worse. The 14-day Intensive Reset is for someone who needs to stop — right now — and begin facing what is really going on.
You arrive. You breathe. Mac begins working with you one on one from day one. We slow everything down and start getting to the truth underneath the behavior. Fourteen days of real work, real honesty, and real attention from two people who have been through their own version of this.
While you are here: One-on-one sessions with Mac four to five days per week. Twice-weekly massage. Private therapist visits. Meals together. Walks, fresh air, time near the water. Golf or pickleball if that is what you need to decompress. Whatever gets you out of your head and into the present.
You leave with a written re-entry plan and 30 days of direct follow-up with Mac.
30-Day Program
Rebuild Program
$85,000 · All-Inclusive
Thirty days is where real change begins. Not managed — begun. This program gives Mac enough time to get past the surface and into the real work. The patterns. The temperament. The history. What happened. What has been driving the behavior long before anyone started calling it a problem.
Every week builds on the last. The conversations get deeper. The honesty gets easier. By week three most people are saying things they have never said out loud to anyone. That is where the real work happens.
Built around you personally: If you play golf we play golf. If you like being on the water we get on the water. If you want to cook we cook together every night. If you need to move we move. The program is structured — the life inside it is built around who you are.
You leave with a detailed written re-entry plan, a full DISC behavioral profile, and 30 days of direct follow-up with Mac.
60-Day Program
Life Change Program
$150,000 · All-Inclusive
Here is what most programs will never tell you. Getting better inside a residence is the easier part. The harder part is going back out into the real world — where alcohol is at every dinner table, where the pressure is back, where the old triggers are waiting. The 60-day program prepares you for that.
When the time is right — and Mac decides when that is — we take the work into the real world. A dinner at a restaurant. A round of golf with people you know. A family situation. Mac is right there coaching you through it in real time. You do not just leave better. You leave ready.
Custom built around your life: What are you going back to? Mac builds the real-world practice around your actual situation — your family, your social world, your professional environment. The reintegration is not generic. It is yours.
You leave with a comprehensive re-entry roadmap, full DISC profile, and 60 days of direct follow-up with Mac.
90-Day Program · Most Selected
Full Transformation
$210,000 · All-Inclusive
The most complete work we do. Ninety days is long enough to build something that actually holds — new habits, new responses, new understanding of yourself that does not disappear when life gets hard again.
By week four the work has gone deep enough that most people start to see themselves clearly for the first time. By week eight they are practicing new responses in real-life situations. By week twelve they are ready — not just better, but genuinely different in the way they think, respond, and show up.
What life looks like here for 90 days: One-on-one with Mac four to five days every week. Massage twice a week. Private therapist visits. Cooking together in the evenings. Weekend chef who builds the menu around what everyone wants that week. Golf, pickleball, fishing, art, gardening, exercise — whatever feeds the part of you that needs to be fed. Dinners out. Real social situations. Gradual reintegration into your actual life — while you are still with us.
People who complete this program do not come back as clients. They come back to reunions. That is the goal. That has always been the goal.
You leave with a full life re-entry plan, complete DISC behavioral profile, and 90 days of direct follow-up with Mac and Laura.
Custom Program
Private Custom
Discussed personally
Some situations do not fit a standard timeline — and we know that. Couples, families, individuals with specific needs or circumstances that require something built entirely around them. We have done it and we can do it again.
Call Mac directly. Tell him what is happening. If a custom program is the right answer, he will tell you — and then he will build it.
Couples are welcome. The second person joins at 50% of the primary program fee.
All programs include 24-hour security, nursing support, wellness services, all meals, and private accommodations. Age 21+. Maximum 8 clients.
Our goal is not repeat clients. Our goal is lasting change — helping you rebuild and begin again the first time.
Insurance & Payment
We are entirely private pay.
Vita Nova does not work with insurance companies. That is a deliberate choice — and one of the reasons our program works the way it does.
Your privacy comes before everything else.
When you work with an insurance company, your personal health information gets filed, coded, reviewed, and stored. At Vita Nova, none of that happens. Your experience here is completely private.
That is not a limitation. That is a feature.
Why Vita Nova is private pay
Three reasons this matters for you.
01
Complete privacy — always
Insurance billing creates records that follow you. At Vita Nova, your participation is known only to the people inside this residence. Everyone signs a permanent confidentiality agreement.
02
No insurance company decides your care
When insurance is involved, the insurance company has a say in how long you stay and what services you receive. At Vita Nova, those decisions are made by Mac, Laura, and you — nobody else.
03
We are built for people who want something different
Our clients value privacy, discretion, and a genuinely personal experience. Private pay is part of what makes Vita Nova what it is.
Payment
Simple, clear, and completely confidential.
How payment works
Full payment is arranged privately before arrival by cashier's check or wire transfer, made payable to Mac and Mac Power Partnership LLC. No billing departments, no third parties.
Investment discussion
Program investment is discussed personally on your first call with Mac or Laura — honestly and without pressure, before any financial commitment is made.
What is included
Every program is all-inclusive. Accommodations, all meals, 24-hour security, nursing support, wellness services, and all time with Mac and Laura. No surprise charges.
Have questions about cost?
Call us. Mac or Laura will speak with you directly and honestly. We want to make sure Vita Nova is the right fit before any financial commitment is made by either side.
"We do not take insurance. We take people seriously."
Call us and we will have an honest conversation about what Vita Nova costs, what it includes, and whether it is the right fit.
