Hi, I’m Veneta Shepherd — SoulQuest Creator, Self-Love Rebel, and Guide to the Galaxy Within.
In 2016, everything changed.
My husband died.
And for the first time, I realized just how much of my life I had spent caring for everyone else. (Oldest of 7 — need I say more?)
So I asked myself a radical question:
“Who do I want to be?”
That one question cracked me wide open.
I gave myself permission to pause, wonder, and reflect.
And what I discovered was this:
I didn’t even know myself.
I had no idea what “true love” meant — not really.
So I started where most people don’t:
I looked deeply into my own eyes in the mirror and began learning to love the person staring back at me.
That moment sparked what would become my SoulQuest.
I wrote my book Tears, Fears, and Cheers: Ripples From Childhood
and began connecting the dots from my past to my present —
healing old stories, dismantling old patterns, and learning something wild and revolutionary:
You don’t ever HAVE to feel bad about yourself.
That single word — HAVE — changed everything.
It showed me that I have a choice.
In how I feel.
In what I believe.
In how I show up.
Now, I help others make that same discovery.
🌀 Who I Am (Beyond the Bio)
I’m radically honest with myself.
Not fearless — but I know what I fear, and it’s not failure.
It’s just unfamiliarity.
And that can be handled with action.
I’m calm. I’m curious.
I’m funny as hell — because laughter is my love language.
I listen deeply, and I don’t flinch at your truth.
People tell me they feel safe with me — because they are.
I’m here to help you feel seen, heard, and wildly supported on your own SoulQuest.
This isn’t just a membership.
It’s a movement.
And you are SO ready.
