Meet Emily Schulz

We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Emily Schulz. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Emily below.

Hi Emily, really happy you were able to join us today and we’re looking forward to sharing your story and insights with our readers. Let’s start with the heart of it all – purpose. How did you find your purpose?
Life was never really “normal” for me. At 18 months old, I had a Near Death Experience that caused some developmental issues. This impacted my ability to navigate the traditional school system. However, I was determined to conform and overcome this perceived learning disability; inadvertently, I sacrificed my childhood in my relentless pursuit of normalcy.

My self-imposed programming to fit societal expectations led me astray from my purpose. I became a workaholic, and by 2014, I successfully owned and operated two seven-figure businesses. I also found myself entangled in a marriage I knew I needed to leave. Struggling with the lack of confidence and courage to initiate a divorce, I realized I was living solely to meet everyone else’s expectations of me, leaving me feeling stuck, exhausted and overwhelmed.

In 2015, another Near Death Experience profoundly altered the course of my life. A transformative shift occurred within me, revealing life as a gift. From that moment on, my perception changed, and I embraced a profound desire to live each moment to its fullest. I discovered that the relentless drive and determination that had once fueled my pursuits had dissipated.

It was as if I had acquired a superpower; my dormant spiritual gifts had been awakened, and I now had a keen insight that illuminated my purpose. I recognized the significance of living authentically and unburdened by external expectations. This newfound perspective heightened my empathy for people living their lives fulfilling others’ expectations of them, just as I had been.

Within a few months of the NDE, I had the courage to end my marriage and close my businesses. The profound realization from the Near Death Experience underscored that I had a purpose, and the path I had been on my entire life deviated from it. Continuing down that trajectory would only lead to more devastation.

Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?
After closing my businesses, I knew I needed to pivot and align with my purpose. I had always been connected to the spiritual realm; as a young child, I could see and hear spirits. However, my workaholic lifestyle eventually crowded out these ethereal interactions.

Once I fully recovered from my NDE, I knew my purpose was to facilitate a connection with the spiritual realm, aiding individuals in uncovering their purpose and eliminating any hindrances blocking their alignment with it.

In my role as a Spiritual Medium and Intuitive Channeler, I specialize in guiding people through significant life transitions. If you’re standing at a crossroads, feeling a dissonance in your life, it could be an indicator that you’re on the verge of embracing your soul’s purpose.

During times of upheaval and discomfort, I interpret these challenges as the Universe opening a door for you to align with your soul’s calling. Acting as a conduit to the Divine Spiritual realm, I provide tailored guidance and support to address my client’s specific needs.

My goal is to guide my clients through the challenge of transformation, so they emerge with confidence, clarity, and a deep understanding of their life’s purpose. Together, we navigate the steps toward fulfilling their soul’s calling, unblocking limiting beliefs and fostering profound healing.

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
Follow the Breadcrumbs – Reflect back on your life and acknowledge the events that were nearly impossible to create. The ones you forced because you wanted it so badly, but they exhausted you.

Then, take note of the events that came to you almost effortlessly. My advice for those starting their journey is to pay attention to what comes effortlessly to them. When you look back on life and identify what has come naturally, these are often the breadcrumbs leading to your purpose. Trust the process and embrace the path that unfolds organically.

Radical Acceptance – The power of radical acceptance has been transformative for me. Understanding that I’m here for a specific reason and resisting the urge to conform to societal norms has been crucial. My advice is to embrace your uniqueness and purpose fully. Don’t block your true calling by attempting to fit into predefined molds. Acceptance of oneself opens the door to a more authentic and fulfilling journey.

Time to Stop Being Comfortable with Complacency, Masked as Stability and Comfort – Recognizing when it’s time to step out of the comfort zone has been a game-changer. If you’re feeling stuck or have lost passion for life, it’s a sign to release what no longer serves you. My advice is to welcome the temporary discomfort as a catalyst for growth. Embrace change and let go of what’s no longer working. This shift can lead to a rediscovery of passion and a renewed sense of purpose.

Tell us what your ideal client would be like?
My ideal client is someone at a crossroads in life, feeling stuck and/or having lost their passion. These individuals are usually in the midst of a major life shift or the transformative “phoenix fire” where they find that their efforts aren’t yielding results.

They know deep down, that there’s more to life, and they’re seeking clarity on their path forward, determined not to revert to old ways or patterns.

In my work, I blend healing, mediumship, channeling, meditation, and accountability over time to guide my clients through their journey of self-discovery and transformation.
