Tulika Verma
Welcome to my world.
I’m living into my purpose through a constellation of work—coaching, facilitation, writing, systems change, art, and spiritual practice. Each thread is grounded in a shared intention: to create fertile spaces where individuals and communities can return to their wholeness.
​
My professional journey has taken many forms: from innovating in women’s health, to catalyzing education systems change across India, to helping organizations and individuals reimagine culture and leadership. Each phase has deepened my belief that change begins from within, and that we need environments that nourish our becoming.
​
My personal path has also been shaped by many thresholds: moments of difficulty, loss, and hard choices that asked me to let go of what no longer fit. Each crossing has been painful but liberating, teaching me to return to authenticity, to compassion, and to a way of living that feels more aligned, easeful and free.
​
I see myself as soil - a generative presence where new possibilities for a more connected and compassionate world can take root.
​
I am also the founder of Sahaj Collective, a space dedicated to cultivating the inner capacities that make deep systems change possible.
​
I hope you find something here that resonates with your own journey.
My Coaching Philosophy
Dear one,
​
I write this from my home office in Bangalore, watching the sun dip behind the trees. In this moment, I feel connected to something larger than myself - much like I do when I am holding space as a coach, facilitator, or systems practitioner.
​
Coaching was a quiet possibility that lived in my heart long before I met it fully. But when I did, it felt less like something I was doing and more like something moving through me.
​
I believe the space we create together is not neutral. It holds the power to shape us. Have you ever found yourself expanding simply because of the energy of a space? My coaching spaces are designed for that kind of expansion—where we arrive with questions, and leave with something deeper than answers: clarity, courage, compassion.
​
This is a space for inner transformation - for returning to yourself, shedding old skins, listening to what’s true, and growing into who you are being called to become.
​
If you join me in this work, I welcome you and honour the step you’re taking. Bring your questions, your stuckness, your longing. Come with curiosity to explore, and the courage to stay with what arises. I will meet you with presence, empathy, and unwavering belief in your inner wisdom.
​
My background in systems thinking allows us to look not just within, but around - to explore the relationships, contexts, and cultures you are shaped by. We may bring in writing, art, music, or meditation as doorways—not tools or fixes, but invitations to go deeper.
​
Though I will walk alongside you, you will be the guide. The wisdom is already within you. I’m simply here to hold a mirror and a space.
​
If this speaks to something in you, I’d love to connect. Reach out through the bookings button to schedule a call or simply write me an email at tulikaruchi@gmail.com.
​
With warmth,
Tulika
Coaching Offering
Crossing Thresholds - A Coaching Journey
This journey is for those who find themselves at a threshold - when the old no longer fits, but the new has not yet fully arrived.
​
You may be navigating a visible transition - stepping into greater responsibility, recovering from burnout, or seeking clarity about what’s next. Or you may be in a quieter, inner transition - an identity shift, a longing for alignment, or the pull of a different way of living that you cannot yet name.
​
Wherever you are, you are invited to arrive as you are.
​
In our time together, we will slow down and listen deeply. Your journey is tailored completely to you and your truths. However, most journeys move through three natural movements:
-
Composting what no longer serves - releasing grief, doubts, or obligations that weigh you down.
-
Uncovering gifts - seeing more clearly the strengths and sensitivities that are already yours.
-
Aligned action - taking small, resonant steps that build confidence and open new pathways.
​
My deepest hope is that, by the end of this journey, you feel more intimate with yourself, more confident in your skin, more aware of your gifts, and more able to meet your life and work with joy and connection.
The Structure
I offer an 8-session journey over 2-3 months. Each session is 60 minutes long and held virtually.
This space is personalized and spacious. Between sessions, you are welcome to reach out if something stirs. I will also share reflections, practices, or inquiries (only if they feel supportive to you).

Client Testimonials
​
​​
Through our work, I was able to express unspoken hurts, rebuild trust at home, and slowly find my footing in a new professional sector. Tulika’s coaching helped me untangle old patterns, face my relationship with authority, and begin to see myself differently.
​
Over time, I regained my confidence, I learned to take up space, to test my assumptions, and to lead from my strengths and gifts. Today I feel grounded, capable, and genuinely resilient. I’ve grown as a professional, a partner - and I know I can navigate whatever comes next. I recently celebrated a major success in my new professional journey too. For the first time in a long while, I feel like: I’ve got this.
Gayathiri
I loved the coaching experience with Tulika. It helped me enjoy my work more deeply, discover meaning and purpose in my own way, and bring renewed excitement to it. Through our sessions, I was able to understand what I was truly looking for, untangle inner confusions, and find a sense of direction. It cleared my head, allowing me to see things more clearly now.
​
I would strongly recommend this experience with Tulika. She is an amazing listener, and I always felt truly heard and welcomed in our conversations.
Elizabeth
It's been more than a week after my coaching sessions with Tulika. Working with her, I felt like I could enjoy a wonderful ice cream of different flavors. I am starting to see the world from a different lens. Working with her was the exact antidote I needed to get unstuck. She has always approached me with love, and compassion.
Her methods might be slightly unconventional but they work. What I liked about working with Tulika and what struck me was that she didn't pile on her belief system on me, she trusted me as an equal and let me guide my own path using my intuition. Especially as a woman, this holds a special place for me and made all the difference. I will miss this ice cream and I hope its taste lingers for a long time.
