Ulrika Sullivan is a National Best-selling Author, Intuitive Spiritual Life Coach, Energy Healer, and Yoga Teacher. Her multitasking, up-in-her-head, stressful corporate career left her feeling like she was living on autopilot. She didn’t know who she truly was. A complete career shift, from scientist to intuitive spiritual life coach, was carefully orchestrated by the Universe to open her up to the deepest level of her soul and purpose. This led to a life-changing “point-of-no-return” epiphany: An undeniable feeling of clarity and way forward is available to us when we connect with our inner voice, heart’s desire, and body consciousness. Today, she is passionate about helping busy women connect back with more of themselves, find their calm, and learn to trust their inner voice of guidance.
Ulrika is the author of Wisdom Beyond What You Know: How to Shift from Being Driven by the Mind to Living from the Heart and Intuition, founder of the Beyond the Mind membership community, and creator of the podcast New Light Living - See Your Life in a New Light.
Ulrika Sullivan, Intuitive Spiritual Life Coach
Ulrika, tell us a little bit about yourself that we may not know about you?
I grew up in Sweden, moved with work to the US in 2001 and I’m currently living in the Greater Boston area. My three teenage girls keep my husband and I on our toes. We have a dog (Murphy) and three cats (Doris, George, and Sandy). I love skiing and travel (not business travel!). My favorite trip was hiking in the Annapurnas in Nepal. I’d love to go back someday! I loved the energy of the mountains and the people.
What is the biggest difference for you between now and back when you were in the corporate world?
The biggest difference is on the inside. Now I know who I am and what I’m here to do. In the past, I just followed what society expected, or my own expectations as defined by others’ success.
The journey of stepping into my true self has been a test in learning how to let go and learn how to trust at a whole new level. A few years ago, I never thought that I would step away from a high-paying, secure job in the pharmaceutical industry to start a coaching business from scratch, but here I am!
So, what do you do now as an Intuitive Spiritual Life Coach?
I combine intuitive coaching with energy healing and yoga. Often clients come to me frustrated not knowing what their next step is, or what they want next. What they may not be aware of is that they are only viewing their life from a very narrow lens, not using their own intuition or tapping into their true self (which is where our life force and power lies).
I believe to evolve we often need to work with multiple modalities to allow the release of the old and to invite the new. It requires integration to evolve, not just getting to an idea of a different future. I help others see their life in a new light!
Ulrika, you published a book, what is it about?
My book Wisdom Beyond What You Know is about shifting from being mind-driven to heart-centered. The book center around seven inner shifts that are essential to multidimensional living. When someone asks me why they should read the book, I say: What if there is MORE to life than feeling exhausted, overthinking your every action, and questioning your next goal? What IF your analytical mind took a back seat and you just KNEW what was right for you?
Then they say, Oh YES! I want that!!
What IF your analytical mind took a back seat and you just KNEW what was right for you?
Where do you start when someone comes to you as a new client?
The first thing I do even before I meet with someone for the first time is to look up their astrology chart, which is our energetic “fingerprint”. I also work with other energy systems such as Human Design and the Gene Keys to gather an energetic view of the person. Why? Because we each have a unique energy imprint that reveals our talents, strengths, challenges and I can sense what their situation is even before I meet them.
After that, I design a unique coaching package where I often suggest combining intuitive coaching with energy healing and essential oils or crystals in a number of sessions for maximum impact. I also teach the client how to tap deeper into their own intuition.
I believe in the “turtle-way”, not the “quick-fix-way” to ensure lasting life change, so I created my membership community Beyond the Mind to help integrate the seven shifts of my book through consistent spiritual practice over time.
How are you to work with?
The feedback I get from others is that I create a calm and safe environment where it becomes natural to get curious about evolving and expanding into what previously seemed impossible or unreachable. Going deep and real with others comes naturally to me.
Why are you so passionate about heart-centered living and life balance?
We have come so far away from inner and outer balance right now that it’s time to get back in flow and harmony within ourselves and our environment. Often it’s because we allow our mind to create stories that we end up believing in which disconnects us from our intuition and true essence which is our heart energy.
I speak from experience since I once was someone who was completely disconnected from myself and my own energy with frustration and exhaustion as a result. I wish for everyone to live with more ease and flow aligned with their true self and universal energy.
What’s next for you?
I am so excited to have published a book recently and became a National Bestselling Author! I am working on sharing the book with those who want to make a shift to heart-centered living. My membership supports a long-term commitment to heart-centered living and daily spiritual practice, created right in time for the new future!
My mission is to help as many as possible to tap into their own true self, heart, and intuition to raise their consciousness and fully step into their talents, gifts, and passions in life. I am certainly an example of that it’s possible!
Do you have a nugget of wisdom to send us off with?
You have everything that you need already. It’s your perception of what you need that may change.
