Grit Plus Gumption

Hey. We’re still here.

Ok, but where have we been..?
Well, we moved. Half way across the country and all the way to the Durham area of North Carolina! We’re still getting settled in and learning our new home, but we’re looking forward to finding new partners in our area and getting back to the work we love to do.

Over the course of 2024, we’ll be announcing some shifts and changes so be sure to stay up to date by joining our mail listing and following us here.

This year is all about rest, rejuvenation, and reset. Won’t you join us?

One of the most breathtaking moments I experienced recently was on our last retreat with Grit Plus Gumption:

We went to the beach at sunset. We’d planned a ritual to close our time together. ( would be so proud!)

As we approached the water, we noticed many others had gathered there as well. But with as many people who were there, the beach was still…silent. It was one of the most quiet and reverent moments I’ve ever experienced.

After we finished our ritual, we stared at the horizon for what seemed like an hour, just watching the waves clap back and forth.

It was holy. Reverent. Sacred.

I’m so lucky to be able to experience these moments with the work I get to do with these amazing warrior women.

Tell me about your favorite season. 🍁
Many people find newness is spring and fall, but I love any change of season. I find excitement in the sun, the snow, the chilly winds of Fall, and the warmth of a spring day after a few months of cold.

How do seasons affect you? What do you most look forward to?
Let us know in the comments.

Retreat Day 1 (Yesterday)

We all traveled to Southwest Florida yesterday evening to meet for our final retreat with two of our DV survivors.

We came together. We laughed hysterically and caught up. We got in late, so not much else other than eating and picking up groceries. Then it’s time for bed and looking forward to the next day.

Stay tuned.
