Kelly Sullivan Walden

One minute Kelly Sullivan Walden was dining with friends at the 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica, CA, the next minute she was being whisked into an ambulance.

As 911 mayhem erupted on the earth plane, Walden peacefully floated through the ceiling, through the cosmos, and into a most heavenly out of body experience, where she was downloaded answers to questions for which she’d always hungered.

At the threshold, before what felt like the point of no return, she made the decision to turn about face and return to her earthly life—but she would never be the same.

Walden is known as one of America’s premiere dream analysts, with over 10 bestselling books to her name. She’s on a mission to awaken the world to the power of dreams. She is the multi-award-winning author of 11 books, her latest work of heart is her bestselling Luminous Humanness book and meditation app.

As a dream expert, Walden is a regular guest on national talk shows, including The Doctor Oz Show, The Real, Coast to Coast, and Hallmark’s Home & Family. She’s decoded dreams for celebrities such as Topher Grace, Stassi Schroeder, Logan Paul, Rikki Lake, The Real Housewives of Orange County and Dancing with the Stars’, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, to name a few.

She was the Dream Doctor on Dream Stream (on Twitch Presents) which was nominated for both a 2021 LOVIE Award and a 2021 ARTA Award.

Walden is the author of "Dream Oracle Cards", "Dream Goddess Empowerment Deck", "Awakened Dreamer Oracle Cards", and ten books, including bestsellers, "Chicken Soup for the Soul: Dreams and The Unexplainable", "Chicken Soup for the Soul: Dreams and Premonitions", "I Had the Strangest Dream", "It’s All in Your Dreams", "Dreaming Heaven", and "The Love, Sex & Relationship Dream Dictionary".

She is a certified clinical hypnotherapist, whose unique approach to dream therapy led her to become a trusted advisor, coach and consultant, enriching the lives of thousands of individuals, including Fortune 500 executives, UN ambassadors, celebrities, inner-city kids, and stay-at-home moms. She is an inspirational speaker and workshop facilitator, the host of Ask Doctor Dream Show (available on iTunes, Google Play, and Spotify).

Walden, along with her husband, Dana, co-founded The Dream Project and CHIME IN: youth-empowerment initiatives that backs the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Together they produced the 2019 World Film Festival Award winning short film entitled, The Ferlinghetti School of Poetics based on a dream. Her approach to dreams is both reverent and irreverent, which may account for why she’s rumored to be the love-grandchild of Carl Jung and Lucille Ball.
