I'M GRETCHEN.

I'm an industry-leading podcaster, storyteller, educator and photographer...but that's not even the best part.

I'm big on designing a life you're excited to live, emails that tell stories, jumping behind the microphone and running between Minnesota and Europe with my very southern Italian boyfriend (read: eats more carbs in a week than I could in a month). 

Nice to meet ya!

Basically, I'm the gal that left my corporate job to build a life that I'd always dreamed of. But it certainly didn't start out that way. 

Not too long ago, I was in a job that had me burning the candle at both ends. I used to set up camp by the coffee machine  just to get out of my stuffy beige cubicle...and that's when it hit me. The ladder-climbing environment just wasn't working for me anymore. 

Before I leaped into full-time entrepreneurship, I'd been hit by some pretty major setbacks that SHOULD have rattled me to my core. But they didn't.

Instead of running away from uncertainty and burying my head in the sand - I started to create a life that I was excited to lead and a business that I was excited to run. Leaning into what I loved about my roles in the past, I made the pivot to help entrepreneurs build and grow their businesses, while connecting with their dream clients. Their people. Want to learn how I do it?
