We had the good fortune of connecting with Kiyoshi Shelton and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kiyoshi, can you talk to us a bit about the social impact of your business?
I coach people of all levels: from beginners who’ve never flowed before to professionals. I teach others how to find creative liberation through their voice & performance from the page to life’s stage, using the art of vocal expression/flowetry as a tool for personal self development to break through fears and limited beliefs with coaching methods I’ve used personally over the decades. I teach online courses, 1-on-1 private coaching, and is available for workshops and consultations. My primary customers who I coach are CEOs, brand influencers, doctors, psychologists, business owners, teachers, musicians, and others on their path to vocal empowerment and freedom. .

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I teach others how to move through their fears with voice activation and rap flow. I’m proud of helping hundreds of people activate their voices. I got here by marketing myself, teaching in-person workshops, and also online courses. It was not easy. It’s been a challenging road, however I keep moving forward with trust. When I fall, I keep getting up, and finding new ways to excel. I learned that mistakes help us find new ways to find the solutions we are looking for. I want the world to know that I am a world-class transformational coach who can help others discover more of their voice and communicate their truth to the world in a fun way.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I would take them to the local Arboretum in Ann Arbor, we’d then ride bikes on a nature trail nearby, hit downtown Ann Arbor for drinks at a cafe then food at Zingerman’s, then hang out in downtown Detroit.
