You may be wondering who is this person behind everything. Well hello! My name is Vanessa Nicole and I am the owner and creator/CEO of Life of Velvet. I have dedicated the last 5 years of my life exploring and creating different spaces for Black women, POC, and supporters and wanted to create this space for all of my creative endeavors and to provide an opportunity to connect with those seeking to expand their mindfulness practice.

Growing up some of my fondest memories were spent with my mother creating different projects, studying the metaphysical/esoteric, and exploring the overall ability of the mind. I come from a long line of healers and intuitive women who have been caring for and conquering this world and it is my purpose and goal to do the same.

It has been in my adulthood that I am finding my own forms of creation, expression, magik, and healing that best align with me. I truly feel it is my purpose to embrace a path that is based on spirituality, alignment, mindful connection, and ease while encouraging and creating space for others, especially other Black Women, to do the same. This is what I call living in flow. 

There is so much resistance we face in our world and it can sometimes feel like an uphill battle. Yet like a stream, despite the resistance which may come our way, we have the ability to be fluid and flow in the direction we are meant to go. 

Over these 5 years, I have become certified in mind, body, and spirit wellness including all levels of Meditation, Mindfulness, Stress Management, and Energy Healing to facilitate deep, intentional, intuitively guided products and services. My goal is to provide meaningful opportunities for beginners and advanced practitioners to connect with their inner most self/power and build a sustainable mindfulness practice/lifestyle and overall flow. Life of Velvet is more than intentional handmade products or one-off events. Life of Velvet is a community, way of life, and portal to promote deep transformation and healing. I look forward to connecting with you!

Live in flow.
