houston, TX retreat May 2024 *

The AIB Retreat exceeded all my expectations; the accommodations and hospitality was warm and welcoming. The teaching was thought provoking & helpful. I loved being with other ladies who understood my grief in a way that only those who have experienced the loss of a husband can understand. Thank you Gretchen for all your love, thought and hard work in putting this together. You done well.

The first retreat for Ashes Into Beauty was held in Houston, TX in May of 24. It was a great weekend filled with laughter, tears, food and fellowship. Seven wonderful ladies were able to make the weekend. I am looking forward to the next Ashes Into Beauty Retreat…coming 2025.

I was blessed to be part of AIB’s first retreat ever. What an amazing and rewarding experience. We had a full agenda with topics to cover that were so needed in dealing with my grief experience, yet we had enough downtime to really get to know and bond with each of the other wonderful women who found themselves in this “club”. Gretchen, having gone through this life-changing experience herself, has an in-depth perspective of what we are all feeling and dealing with. Her sessions were well thought out, planned and designed to make one get in touch with what we are dealing with. It was a wonderful weekend and one I will always remember and be grateful for and be grateful for my newfound friends.
