About Me

 
 

Hey! I’m Gretchen Kamp.

I’m a 5X Certified Life Coach, specializing in mindset, habits, success, alcohol-freedom, and ADHD.

As a coach, I’m passionate about helping my clients develop a growth mindset and an empowering inner voice, while optimizing their habits. By developing confidence and self-love, and getting 1% better each day, they can achieve anything their heart desires and find true fulfillment.

Working with me will put you on the fast track to becoming your favorite version of yourself.

I didn’t get where I am today on my own. I worked with my own amazing coach who helped me tone down my perfectionism and develop healthier coping mechanisms, while unlearning limiting beliefs and self-sabotaging behaviors. Progress isn’t linear, and there is no finish line when it comes to personal development. I will continue to be the most important project I work on, for the rest of my life.

My own personal transformation inspired me to pay it forward. In 2024 I launched my online community, The Pink Cloud Collective. In March of 2025, I earned 5 Life Coaching Certifications and began working one on one with clients.

I have been alcohol-free since March of 2024. I have ADHD and consider it a superpower.

Before I became a coach, I was self-employed for 10 years as a brand strategist and graphic designer. In 2023 I bought and renovated an adorable 1960s cottage in Upstate New York. I have a ton of hobbies — including painting, crafting, interior decorating, piano, and my latest obsession: my vegetable garden.

I’ve been passionate about health and wellness for a long time, so transitioning into the coaching profession was a natural next step.

Welcome to my corner of the internet. This is The Pink Cloud Collective. You’re going to love it here!

Where did the name ‘The Pink Cloud Collective’ come from?

The ‘pink cloud’ is a term used to describe the early period of recovery from drug or alcohol abuse. It's characterized by a period of intense feelings of happiness, hope, and optimism that can last for days, weeks, or months. People in the pink cloud phase feel good mentally and physically, and are often excited and confident about their recovery. 

The pink cloud is a common part of the recovery journey, and is recognized by many in the recovery community, including Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). However, not everyone experiences the pink cloud in the same way. Some people may skip this phase entirely, while others may only experience it briefly. (source)

For me, the pink cloud has been ongoing since I quit drinking in March of 2024. I feel invigorated, inspired and even euphoric about my new lease on life, every single day.

I am only human so of course I experience a broad range of emotions. It can’t always be rainbows and butterflies. Unfortunately, bad days, heartbreak and loss are part of the human experience. It’s important to remember that the best moments in life are made much sweeter by the difficult parts.

But for the most part…

***Alcohol-freedom has been for me life in full HD.*** When I think about my former existence as a gray area drinker and how stuck, alone and even sick I felt at times, my new alcohol-free life is a sparkly technicolor dream come true.

And better yet.. I really love the person I have become since releasing alcohol for good. I bring main character energy to everything I do.

A collective is “a group of entities that share or are motivated by at least one common issue or interest or work together to achieve a common objective.”
