About Julia Kyambi

Hi, I’m Julia

I offer intuitive somatic depth and soul work, rooted in heart-based presence, for deep-feeling, soulful humans who are longing to feel more whole.

I’m here in service of helping you open the doors to your own inner wisdom and deeper truth — and release the blocks that keep you disconnected from your essence: who you truly are beneath stories, conditioned beliefs, and protective patterns.

So you can feel free inside to live your life fully, your way.

My story

Over twenty years ago, I left my profession as a medical doctor. At the time, I didn't have the words for it, but I was following something much quieter—the whispers of my own soul and the call of spirit.

What began as a search for deeper professional meaning became a decades-long journey home to myself. 

I had to face a very specific kind of inner ache and exhaustion: one of not fully embracing who I truly was. I had spent years adapting, performing, and "belonging" across different worlds and systems and had to re-learn how to reconnect to the real me, underneath it all. 

I journeyed deeply — through the body, ancestral layers, and the quieter realms of soul and spirit. All of this woven together supported me in finding my voice as the deep-feeling human that I am, and gifted me an extensive background that I now draw on to support others on their inner journey.

Just before I turned 50, I also finally found the language for my neurodivergence. It was a liberation. It helped me stop making my deep-feeling sensitivity, intuitive pattern-seeing and subtle sensing "wrong"—and instead recognise them as the very qualities that allow me to accompany others deeply on their journey of coming home to themselves today.

My journey home to myself is ever unfolding and my work continues to grow with me.

The ‘me’ behind the scenes

A few fun facts

  • ♢ My sentences often dance between between English, German and the non-verbal. You’ll also often find me talking to myself — quite loudly, the older I get — in all three.

  • ♢ I love cooking and baking. Baking has been with me since childhood, and it still begins the same way: with a craving for cookie or cake dough. I bake because I want the dough, not the cake.

  • ♢ I love cold swimming — my soul feels at home in mountain lakes and rivers, with creeks and boulders and that alive, icy water. I also love the ocean, but if I had to choose, my true dream home is with a spacious view, near trees, gorges, and cold mountain lakes & streams.

  • ♢ I’m a hermit at heart. I love connection, circle and community from a place of deep presence and heart — but nothing nourishes me more than my alone time. If at all you find me at a big party, it’ll likely be somewhere on the sideslines, for example decorating the cake or doing the food.

  • ♢ I’m notorious for hoarding empty jars, or really anything made of glass with a lid. My kitchen is filled with grains and pulses in bottles, and I love making things that can live in the smaller ones. Every now and again I have to declutter and be discerning — it’s become a ritual.

  • ♢ I need my coffee and my dream time in the mornings: yes, goggle-eyed, holding on to a huge mug and staring outside (must be at least a window with far view, some sky, and ideally some green). If I don’t do this, my day just doesn’t flow quite right. I even do it when I have to get up hideously early.

Deep wisdom and the power of transformation naturally flow beyond what the rational mind alone can grasp

When you reconnect with this wisdom and let it weave back into your life — through body, mind, heart, soul, and spirit — you begin to feel more free, guided, knowing and anchored within yourself, and your deeper truth.

There is no one way of doing this, only your unique way.

I’m here to support you on that path of reconnection

That's why I describe my work as one of sacred growth and inner homecoming.

What other people say about my work:

  • “This work has been precious and profound beyond my expectations… I feel connected to my guiding core — strong and grounded to be me, and connected to a deeper realm of inner guidance. I couldn’t have dreamed of this, because I had no idea I could even feel this way.”
    — Judy C., 1:1 monthly mentoring, California

  • “There’s something so comforting in knowing that my body and system will always find a way. Julia always manages to open up the space for me to enter into that wisdom.

    Deep shifts have happened — I can’t really put into words how. It’s deeply experiential. I can highly recommend working with her. Her gentle, sensitive approach, her deep wisdom and fine perception are exceptional.”
    — Laura, Finland

“As someone who has been in the field a long time, I can easily recognize Julia’s work as stellar. She works with clients in a sensitive, attuned, and respectful way, helping them to self reflect and heal from an embodied location. She combines felt-level experiencing with descriptive reflection and relational support in a way that creates an organic feeling of ‘being home’ in the fullness of ones body. I recommend her work to anyone who is on the embodied path.”

Christine Caldwell, PhD, LPC, BC-DMTAuthor, Body-Centered Psychotherapist, and Developer of the Moving Cycle
