Hello! I'm Shell Vera, the founder of The Essential Creative. This community is the passion project that compliments my full-time business as a voice discovery coach and writer for aspiring authors, speakers, musicians, business owners, coaches, and ministers. Helping people understand how to excel creatively so they can live a faith-filled, fulfilled, and authentic life gets me out of bed in the morning.
