How I came to BURP

Hello, I'm Gretchen

For over 30 years, I’ve had one-hour conversations with more than 4,000 people who lived with with the misery of a Should-Know-Better Conflict because they couldn’t pick a paint color. I coined it an SKBC. I helped them know what they needed and trust themselves and confidently paint what they love, without regret, blame or shame. It worked 99% of the time. Then, I began to wonder if the same conversation would work with a palette of words instead.
It did.
