About Olivia Gerber

Your ideas just sprout up like weeds!” My sister said this to me recently—and honestly, she’s not wrong. I’m a creative visionary and relentless dreamer who isn’t afraid to take risks. Whether it's business, relationships, faith, or adventures, I believe in living life to the fullest. After graduating from Purdue, I’ve poured my energy into turning vision into reality in three main ways: ENTREPRENEUR – At Abideaway, my sister and I help vacation rental owners turn their properties into unforgettable guest experiences through interior design, custom murals, branding, and direct booking websites. We’re passionate about making great design approachable and profitable—bringing transparency to the process and helping short-term rental hosts create spaces that truly stand out. AUTHOR – Chronically hopeful. That’s the phrase I live by—and the heart behind my first book, Hold Hope, published with Verity Press (a branch of Phylicia Masonheimer's Every Woman a Theologian ministry). Born from my own journey with chronic pain, this book exists to speak the hope of Jesus to those walking similar roads. ADVOCATE – As a Compassion International Road Representative, I have the opportunity to travel the country to help represent Compassion at churches and conferences. I get to connect with incredible people while helping release children from poverty in Jesus’ name. What could be better? So—real estate agents, Airbnb hosts, VRBO owners, ministries, nonprofits, publishers, creatives—I’d love to connect. I’ve yet to meet someone I couldn’t learn from (or dream up something with!).
