How our journey began
Abi Wurschmidt serves as the proprietor and originator of Gathered Services, LLC. This venture emerged from her personal struggles in juggling the roles of a dedicated mother and a committed employee.
Prior to embracing motherhood, my passion lay in the realm of work — learning novel proficiencies and leaving an imprint in the companies I contributed to. However, upon stepping into the role of a mother, the desire to be present for my children grew immensely. Despite this longing, financial constraints made relying on a single income impractical. I was fortunate to find an employer who understood my situation, accommodating the sounds of children in the background. Nevertheless, as my family expanded to three children, the demands of my full-time job became overwhelming. It was evident that a change was imperative to align with my aspirations and my children's needs. A sum of around $500 per month was the bridge we needed to navigate this journey. In that moment, I realized that I wasn't alone in seeking financial support, purpose, and a means to utilize my skills while remaining at home with my child(ren).
Abi's professional journey spans from entry-level administrative roles to the pinnacle of Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Administrative Assistant positions. She currently resides in Minnesota alongside her husband of more than a decade, their three children, and two canine companions.
