Destined To Become Woman With A Very Colorful Past

I came to this work, not through therapy, or a doctorate, but through a bucket of paint. I didn't hear a calling, and I wasn't particularly gifted at art. Color became my vehicle for self-actualization not because I loved decorating, but because using paint colors to make myself feel at home changed how I felt about the world.​I built a dream of beauty, belonging, and worth. Then shared it with others by helping them do the same. That's how I belonged, became, and built a life of shared dreams. That's how I came to have a colorful past , and came to know that everyone else does too.

This is how I became a Color Baggage expert.

Feeling Whole

“Gretchen, what a great concept you have here. I just purchased a home and was seeking guidance on how to unify my new house with paint… No one else really attempts to help you with a whole house concept. I have followed your process…”

New Way of Seeing

“I finally decided to stop and use Gretchen’s advice!!!! I should have done this first… I am just stunned by this awakening in color choosing for my walls!! This was a completely new way for me of choosing color and the results are fabulous…”

Liberating Choices

“Dear Gretchen… I can not tell you how much you have inspired me to add color to our home rather than going with the flow and paint it all in neutral colors.”
