Meet our Founder
I’m Gretchen, more affectionately known as Grits. The name captures my love for hard work, big celebrations, and the magic of coming together. At my core is a personal mission: to ensure that everyone I encounter feels worthy, empowered, and fully capable of reaching their potential.
Balancing life as a mom to two amazing kids, an exuberant 85 lb Sheepadoodle, and a feisty 24 lb Frenchie, I bring a unique blend of warmth and determination to everything I do. My career, rich with two decades of experience in sales, business operations, strategic planning, and team leadership, is driven by a purpose to remove obstacles to success and foster community prosperity.
But here’s the real deal: I’m all about getting stuff done efficiently, effectively, and with a bit of flair. I will roll up my sleeves and work alongside the team with precision, enthusiasm, and a dash of playfulness. My goal is to deeply understand your vision and goals, guiding your team to craft strategies that resonate with your brand’s ethos and align with the team’s dynamics. This approach isn’t just about creating plans; it’s about igniting action and driving sustainable growth and success.
