We were fortunate to catch up with some brilliant artists, creatives and entrepreneurs from throughout the Houston area and they share the wisdom with us below.

Veronica Herrera

The most important thing I’ve done as a parent is to model how to be a good human. I want my children to grow up and be happy about the decisions they have made. I want them to be proud of themselves as well as me. Read More>>

I’m a big audiobook gal and have listened to Atomic Habits by James Clear once or twice a year since I first found it. For those who aren’t familiar with it, it’s a great guide to implementing habit successfully in your life and I find it to be an amazing tool that helps me with my goals in any area of life. I love this idea that starting to change and morph into your new version of yourself starts with, potentially, just a few small habit changes that can snowball and transform. Read More>>

For me, the most important factor behind my success has been brand consistency. Every single touchpoint, whether it’s an in-person event, my Instagram feed, my website, or even my client onboarding process, is intentionally branded and aligned with my values, voice, and visuals.

This consistency creates a sense of trust and professionalism. People take me seriously because they can feel the thoughtfulness and clarity behind everything I put out. It also helps me stand out in a crowded design space. When potential clients interact with my brand, they instantly get a sense of who I am and what I stand for, and if that resonates, they know they’ve found their person. Read More>>

What makes me happiest is being surrounded by friends, family, and even new faces. I also cherish the quiet joy of solo coffee dates, where I can slow down and savor those gentle, nurturing pauses. But above all, the most fulfilling part is being able to offer a touch of love through what I do. Serving a quality cup of coffee allows me to be a small but meaningful part of someone’s day, whether they’re celebrating, heading into an important meeting, or simply in need of a little extra warmth and care.

I pursued a creative career because art has always been an integral part of my life. My grandfather, a self-taught painter and architect, was my first inspiration. As a child, I spent countless hours in his workshop, letting my imagination run wild and absorbing his passion for craftsmanship.

In high school, I was fortunate to have incredible art teachers who helped me refine my skills and encouraged my creativity. Their support gave me the confidence to pursue this path professionally. Read More>>

I didn’t grow up in an artistic family—at least not in the traditional sense. My parents weren’t professional artists, but they loved art deeply. Life, however, didn’t give them the chance to explore that passion, not even as a hobby.
Circumstances held them back, yet their quiet passion planted a seed in me. I think I inherited not their careers, but their artistic soul. Read More>>
