WHOLE SOUL STUDIO
Body | Soul | Spirit
Reclaim the canvas of your life - after the breaking.
For women who are Seekers, Creators, and Way-Forward Makers.
A soul purpose pilgrimage where body and soul reunite through art, beauty, prayer, and sacred rhythm.
You are not broken. You are becoming.
Welcome to a sacred studio where your story is held, your beauty is reclaimed, and your soul is invited forward.
The Whole Soul Manifesto
To the woman still standing —
She endured the breaking, but she was never broken.
She breathes.
She imagines.
She creates.
Born of breath and clay, soil and spirit —
ancient and embodied, grounded and heavenly.
Beauty is her birthright.
Wholeness is her truth.
She is not making art —
she is making space.
A Seeker.
A Finder.
A Creator.
A Way-Forward Maker.
She does not survive.
She awakens.
This is The Creator’s Way: The Four Elements of Wholeness
To feel.
To heal.
To dream.
To create.
Because the world needs her beauty.
And because God created her for this journey.
About the Artist
Shelley Henk — Nurse Turned Artist of the Soul
Shelley Henk has always been a healer at heart. Trained as a nurse, she witnessed the ways life and trauma shape the body, mind, and spirit. But her own journey revealed a deeper calling: to guide women back to the wholeness God designed for them — not through rules or routines, but through art, story, prayer, and sacred ritual.
As an Artist of the Soul, Shelley translates unspoken stories into living, expressive art. Through painting, journaling, photography, ceremonial practice, and prayer, she creates spaces where women can reconnect with their bodies, honor their past, and awaken their creative power.
Shelley’s work is guided by the belief that beauty is medicine, and God’s creativity lives in every soul. Every brushstroke, every prayer, every ceremony is an invitation to step fully into the life you were made to live.
“Shelley sees what is unseen and brings it to light — transforming brokenness into beauty, story into sacred art.”
This Experience Is For You If…
• You’ve navigated life-changing seasons and feel ready to reclaim your story
• You desire reconnection with your body, soul, and creative voice
• You want a structured, ceremonial journey that unfolds at a human pace
• You are ready to be seen, honored, and gently witnessed
• You are open to a Christ-centered spiritual experience without religious pressure
This Is Not For You If…
• You want a quick confidence fix or surface-level solution
• You are seeking the cheapest or easiest option
• You are unwilling to invest in a thoughtful, premium experience
• You want constant 1:1 access (the pilgrimage itself is designed to be complete)
Finding Beautiful School of YOU™
A Soul Purpose Pilgrimage for Women Ready for What’s Next
After the breaking, you step into yourself.
Some women arrive here after seasons that reshaped them quietly and deeply.
Some arrive after life changes they never expected to survive.
This pilgrimage is not about fixing you.
It is about meeting yourself fully — through art, prayer, ritual, and ceremony — and stepping into the wholeness God has been patiently forming within you.
This is not a course.
This is not coaching.
This is a return.
Shelley‘s God given gift to help women walk out at the School of YOU is this journey is worth more than its weight in gold.
— Michelle Maxwell
This pilgrimage is inspired by the Gate Called Beautiful (Acts 3) — a sacred place of encounter, healing, and wholeness. Here, the body, mind, and soul integrate as you are guided through your inner landscapes into the fullness of who God created you to be.
“My time with her exceeded any expectations and the outcome is invaluable.”
-Ashton Greer
The Creator’s Way™
The Four Elements of Wholeness
This pilgrimage follows The Creator’s Way™ —
a living, embodied rhythm revealed in nature, scripture, and the human soul.
Feel · Heal · Dream · Create
These are not concepts.
They are sacred thresholds — guiding you back into alignment with your body, your story, and God’s presence within you.
This is how wholeness is remembered.
A Yearlong Pilgrimage
This journey unfolds over one full year, guided by sacred pacing and seasonal rhythm.
Each Element is released every 12 weeks, allowing time for integration, rest, and embodiment.
At the beginning of each season, you receive:
A new Elemental teaching journey
Guided prayer, creative practice, and ritual
A curated physical box delivered to your home, containing symbolic objects and art materials aligned to the Element
Nothing is rushed.
Transformation is allowed to take root.
The Four Elements

You begin by returning to the body — the place where truth lives.
This season restores emotional connection, energy, and inner safety.
You receive a symbolic vessel to mark your awakening.
Guided prayer supports honest feeling and gentle release, meeting God within the sensing body.

Here, what you have carried begins to move.
Pain softens into clarity.
Grief reshapes into wisdom.
You receive a symbolic vial of renewal.
Prayer accompanies release, inviting God’s presence to transform what no longer serves.
DREAM — Expand Your Vision
As space opens, vision returns.
This season restores imagination, courage, and direction, revealing what is yours to carry forward.
You receive a symbolic feather to honor vision and calling.
Prayer strengthens discernment, grounding desire in God’s guidance.

This is where becoming takes form.
You integrate your story, healing, and vision through ceremonial art-making and embodied expression.
You receive a symbolic flame marking transformation.
Prayer and creative practice honor the sacred work of becoming fully yourself.
The Culmination

This is not an ending.
It is a crossing.

— Kim Henry
“Working with Shelley, “Artist of the Soul” was such an incredible way to embrace the darks and the lights of my life and learn how they have complimented one another to create the woman that I am today. The “Finding Beautiful School of YOU” transformed my mess into meaning and left me feeling empowered and proud of who I am."
— Jessica Smith Dos Santos
“For years I’ve searched for someone to help me understand & navigate my history while pushing me to LIVE forward. So many past experiences have walked me through the past, but left me stuck there. Shelley teaches methods to help deal with the triggers, yet keep moving forward so I can honor who I am at my core while acknowledging the feelings and emotions that come along with it. No more suppression. No more numbness."
— Emily Byrnes
“I love how Shelley weaves art, science & spirituality into our broken stories at the Finding Beautiful School of YOU. Helping us bring beauty forth. Shelley guides us past the healing stage, I felt stuck in. Her vision helped me awaken my God sized Dreams & this beautiful Artful Storywork healed my broken stories. So grateful.”
— Lisa Spokis
“Shelley helped break off me long held beliefs about God and myself that relegated me to believing I would always be last to receive. What a joy for that thinking to be gone! In just two short hours burdens, limiting beliefs, and some “stinking’ thinkin’ I didn’t even know I had was destroyed! Not only does Shelley know what she is doing she makes you feel that the most important thing she has to do at that moment is be in front of you. It was an amazing experience!”
— Dan Thomas
“Shelley helps you realize through her past experiences, that you too can bust through the barrier of pain and see suffering and see with beauty and purpose. She shares how looking backward to unearth your story allows you to let go and embrace forgiveness, love, and purpose to move forward."
— Katie Hurley
“Shelley Henk has helped me go from “hot mess” to finding my joy with purpose and passion! She has helped me rewrite my story learning to love who I once was and focus on who God created me to be. Helping me awaken to new possibilities, gain clarity on the future I want to create and empowering me take action to live an abundant and beautiful future!"
— Andrea Farrell
