Welcome to Lodestar Coaching & Consulting

Meet Dr. Rachael Sullivan

I’m Dr. Rachael Sullivan, an ICF-certified organizational coach, JEDI strategist, and facilitator. I work collaboratively with clients in both individual coaching and organizational settings, bringing a trauma-informed approach that creates space for deep listening, reflection, and a grounding presence. In organizational contexts, I use these skills to foster deeper collaboration, build trust, and motivate teams to achieve their goals.

As a coach, I draw on over a decade of experience in justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) education, as well as a strong foundation in systems thinking and power dynamics. I specialize in helping individuals and organizations navigate transitions, identify barriers, and co-design actionable strategies for growth and equity. Whether I’m supporting leaders in inclusive practices or guiding individuals through personal or professional challenges, my work is always tailored to meet unique needs.

I identify as a White, queer, ciswoman, and settler living with disabilities (dyslexia, working memory challenges, chronic pain, and fatigue). Raised in a working-class neighborhood in Northern Ontario, I now call New Westminster, BC, home. I am honoured to live, work, and learn on the shared and stolen lands of the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓-speaking Coast Salish peoples, specifically the Qayqayt, Sto:lo, kʷikʷəƛ̓əm (kwee-kwuh-tlum), Quw’utsun (Cowichan), šxʷməθkʷəy̓əmaɁɬ (Musqueam), and sc̓əwaθenaɁɬ (Tsawwassen) peoples, who have stewarded this land since time immemorial.

If you’re seeking a thoughtful, compassionate guide to support your personal growth or organizational change, let’s connect. Together, we can explore what’s possible.
