Gretchen Barocio

As a previous, successful corporate executive and self-published author, Gretchen jumped into the HR profession during the global pandemic. She found a love for the profession and has made a career in human resources.

Over the past twenty-four years, and after self-publishing three books (now four with the Sober Fitness Journal: One Day At A Time), she faced her long, grueling battle with alcohol addiction amidst the Covid-19 pandemic. Through sobriety, she found a reinvigorated love for fitness, writing and turned that into helping others with the new Sober Fitness Journal: One Day At A Time.

She is not a sobriety or fitness coach, however truly believes those who are struggling with addiction should seek out the professional and certified help they need in order to be the healthiest version of themselves. There is no time like the present to choose sobriety, it's either "one day" or "day one."

In the past, Gretchen has done collaborations with several public figures including: Kim Garst, Tiphani Montgomery and Kim Kiyosaki. Her written work is also listed in Forbes acclaimed company, Bossbabe.Inc’sŪ library of ‘must reads’ for female entrepreneurs.
