Former clients' stories of transformation

Lena Lille

A successful CMO with the “perfect life.” Until her body said no. She quit her job without a plan — only a knowing that she had to return to her spiritual path. Reiki opened instantly for her. Today she’s grounded, intuitive, powerful… and finally herself.

Jenny Ekenved

She used to avoid her calling by staying busy. Fun things. Courses. Exercise. Distractions. Our work was about dissolving the shield she carried and guiding her into authenticity - because behind that shield an amazing talent for working with shamanic guides hid. With their help, she is now offering healing sessions - a long held dream.

Noomi Väcklén

She hid her spirituality for years — afraid of being rejected by her employer and people closer to her. Together we activated her Reiki, opened her shamanic gifts, and dissolved the fears that kept her small. Now she lives fully in her truth and has changed her career to match her soul - and the response from family, friends and former work has been only positive.

Lena Lille - CMO in tune with energies

“I had everything — except myself” — Lena’s journey from burnout success to spiritual alignment

When Lena reached out to me…  

We had been colleagues twenty years ago. Back then, she was the one who was spiritually ahead of me — intuitive, open, connected and I was super impressed by her. She was actually the one that made me go see my first medium! But life took us in different directions, and for many years we only had sporadic contact.

Then, this past autumn, she wrote to me in distress:

“Help, Ellen. I’ve quit my job without having a new one. My body hurts. I need to do this now.”

On paper, Lena had it all:

a successful career as a CMO, a beautiful home, a loving husband, two children, and a life that looked perfect from the outside.

But inside, something was collapsing. Her body was speaking loudly. Her soul was calling even louder.

She knew she could no longer postpone the truth:

It was time to face her fears, reclaim her power, and step into the spiritual mission she had carried her whole life. To me and everyone that has met Lena, it’s clear that she has a super power of kindness and care, which shows so clearly in a work place. People really love her and feel safe to confine in her. In a high-paced and high-pressure work environment, her presence is so healing. But we needed to balance this in her, so that she didn’t lose her energy to others. Keep the super power without becoming drained.

How we worked together  

We began by reconnecting her with the part of herself she had buried under years of responsibility and performance. Reiki opened beautifully for her — almost like it had been waiting. Through that channel, she started tuning into people’s needs, receiving messages from spirit and guides, and even offering healing to her cat.

We worked through the fears that had kept her in a life that no longer fit. She started to set boundaries with relationships that drained her, and she began choosing herself with a clarity she hadn’t felt in decades.

She also started doing shamanic journeys, which gave her healing and clarity around past lives that still affected her, and also brought her a very vivid experience of meeting a guide.

The transformation  

Today, Lena feels more relaxed, less stressed, and deeply authentic. The aches in her body are gone and she has started a new job that feels 100% aligned with her, she knows she’s in the right place. She trusts her intuition more. She listens to her body. She honors her spiritual gifts and brings them into her workday, instead of just dreaming about them.

For me as a coach, I can see that was needed was to peel away inauthentic layers of self that wasn’t true for her. Those layers stole a lot of energy and kept her doing a lot of things that didn’t lead to her higher good. Once these layers where identified and removed – she stepped into power quickly. 

In Lena’s own words

“I thought I had to keep everything together. But the moment I let go, I found myself again. I feel aligned, powerful, and finally real.”

Jenny Ekenved - a natural born healer

“I stopped running from myself” — Jenny’s journey from spiritual avoidance to true inner healing

When Jenny first came into my life…  

She joined my Reiki II course in Uppsala as a single mother balancing a lot on her shoulders. Even before she walked into the room, I felt that I would meet a special person that day. I even painted my nails in a colour I had never used before, which turned out to match Jenny. 

After the course, some time passed before she reached out. When she did, it was with a quiet readiness:

she wanted change and was sooo ready to meet her fears.

But beneath that readiness, I could feel something else — a subtle resistance. Not spoken, not conscious, but present. A facade she had learned to carry for protection. A shield that had helped her survive, but now stood in the way of her spiritual growth.

How we worked together  

Our work began with activating Jenny’s spiritual abilities even more and at the same time addressing that shield — gently, consistently, with compassion. It showed up everywhere:

in relationships, in her spiritual practice, in the way she moved through the world.

Jenny, like many of us, had a pattern of avoiding her shadow by staying busy:

fun activities, courses, exercise, distractions that kept her from touching the deeper wounds and expanding as a soul.

My role as her coach was to not get pulled into the stories.

To stay with the real energy underneath.

To hold the belief — unwaveringly — that she could free herself and create a great life.

And she did.

Through shamanic journeying and healing, she went straight to the roots of her trauma responses. She met her shadow with courage. She stopped running, started listening and has a fantastic natural ability to work with shamanic guides. They had most certainly been waiting for her!

The transformation  

Jenny relaxed and became more authentic, more grounded, more present in her own life.

She stopped hiding behind busyness and began choosing her truth instead.

She ended co-dependencies in relationships that drained her.

She began honoring her own energy.

She stepped into her spiritual gifts with confidence and faith.

Today, she is offering Reiki healing to others — the first clear step toward a life she truly loves.

And she continues her journey in my VIP membership, where we meet every month and deepen her path.

In Jenny’s own words

“I used to avoid my shadow by staying busy. Now I meet myself with honesty. I feel real, grounded, and finally connected to who I am.”

Does Jenny’s journey feel familiar  

You don’t have to keep running. When you’re ready to meet yourself fully, I’m here to guide you home.

Noomi Väcklén - a great shaman in the making

“I finally dared to live as my true self” — Noomi’s journey from fear to spiritual freedom

When Noomi came to me…  

Noomi worked as a deacon within the Church of Sweden, while quietly carrying a deep longing for shamanic practices and energy work. It was a part of her she had hidden for years. She grew up in a strongly Christian context, and the belief had taken root early:

“If I show who I really am, I will be rejected, mocked, and unloved.”

This inner conflict left her feeling split. Outwardly she followed the expectations placed on her. Inwardly she felt a powerful spiritual calling she didn’t dare to express. This split also affected her physical and psychological wellbeing in a negative way. 

How we worked together 

After some initial healing sessions, Noomi decided to join my 1:1 spiritual coaching program, in which she stayed for 1 year. We began by creating safety in her own energy. I activated her Reiki healing abilities and taught her shamanic healing so she could stand in her truth, holding the fear that arose at the same time. Together, we opened her connection to her spiritual guides, giving her a sense of support and clarity she had longed for.

Step by step, we moved through every fear that held her back. I encouraged her, held space for her, and helped her see that her truth was not something dangerous — it was something sacred. She didn’t need much help, because this is one of the bravest people I have ever met and she instantly knew the work that had to be done.

She quickly became masterful in working shamanically, meeting new guides who helped her heal not only herself, but also her lineage. She also established a healing practice with the land where she lives, connecting to nature spirits.

The transformation  

Today, Noomi is fully open about her spirituality. She carries it with pride, confidence, and joy. She accepts clients for healing and has also chosen to change her career path to a role that aligns with her truth instead of conflicting with it.

She describes the shift as finally being able to breathe freely.

In Noomi’s own words

“I thought I would lose everything if I showed who I was. Instead, I found myself. I feel free, proud, and more alive than ever.”
