Our Owner, Kimberly Schilling, Has Been Featured in Best-Selling Book

Kimberly Schilling, Creative Works’ owner, recently contributed a chapter in the best-selling book, Shift with Intention and Soar!: Your guide to manifesting your best life.

The book is a collection of stories from 40+ men and women who share a time in their life where a shift in thinking, actions or behavior was necessary. Schilling’s chapter is titled “Dancing with Grief” and focuses on the journey she endured following the passing of her late husband and our Founder, Jeff Schilling.

“Jeff and I discussed writing a book about our experiences together since his cancer diagnosis, but unfortunately we never got a chance to start due to his declining health. So, when I was approached to contribute to this anthology project, I knew it was a sign to share a part of my story. I have found a lot of healing in writing and sharing a part of my grief journey and I truly hope it will help someone else who will walk this path in the future,” said Schilling.

Since its release last month, the book has achieved numerous distinctions, including becoming a #1 International Best Seller. The book also topped 54 other Best Selling Categories.

Kimberly has been involved in the entertainment industry for over 15 years. She worked alongside Jeff in growing our company, and she has worn many hats as we’ve evolved and grew over time.

Jeff was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2016, during which Kimberly’s role changed to caretaker. Unfortunately, Jeff lost his battle to cancer in 2020. Kim is now growing into a new role of advisor within our company, as well as finding ways to give back to others through the Make-A-Wish foundation.

Kimberly specifically mentions that Armando Lanuti has played a great part in our story, including leading as president of the company since 2017. This book chapter/excerpt is one way that Kim hopes to give back to others both in and outside of this beloved industry that Jeff introduced her to years ago.
