Sky Sheridan, Chief Empowerment Officer
After ten years of experience as an international male model, the power of perception forged through advertising was made available to Sky Sheridan, Called2Create’s founder and spokes model. Heeding his own call to create, acquired through extraordinary life experiences, Sky directs this awareness to the public, intending to guide an inspirational shift in advertisement.
Sky’s modeling career was launched during his NYU acceptance deferral which led him to be discovered skiing in Park City, UT. Developed by Ford Models and now represented by Click Models in New York, he is also with Urban Models in Milan, and Kult Models in Germany. Sky trained with Balanchine master Daniel Duelle before enrolling in a two-year Film program at Columbia College. Continuing on in the “school of life”, Sky pursues his most earnest passion of philosophy and spirituality to expose the human condition and embrace the potential to empower through his entrepreneurial opportunities.
Sky’s empowerment guide, “The Seven Shifts,” is the male counterpart to Glass Castle, the chronicle of writer Jeanette Walls, a triumph against all odds story that is also a tender, moving tale of how unconditional love creates the fortitude to carve out life on our own terms.
Centered around his near death experience (NDE) after Sky was electrocuted at age four, a search is fired deep within his synapses: how much deeper and broader is the world past what our five physical senses tangibly register? Defying death left Sky to deal with an amplified fear of survival that also set him soul-searching, to find the truth and meaning behind the quintessential questions of “Where did I come from,” “Why am I here” and “Where am I going?”
All the odds that predicted that he would be insane, impoverished and/or incarcerated are defied as Sky survives his entire family, only to discover the word “unknown” replacing his father’s name on his birth certificate. This initiates a self-discovery quest to unravel the secret of who he is, a truth covered up by his schizophrenic mother who went from dolphin trainer to drug-addict and died of AIDS when he was only fourteen, leaving Sky to be a child that was raised by a village.
In twenty-six years of endless beginnings, Sky endures a right of passage through a constant dance with death, an abusive home, foster care, an alcoholic Grandmother, Mormon conversion, battles with sexuality, acceptance and self-worth, male modeling, a five-year trust fund battle, finding his real father and finally, financial ruin.
However harrowing, each crisis is a blessing in disguise that ignites a catharsis to stop soul-searching and start soul-seeing, perceiving, and thus manifesting, the world through the eyes of his soul. Sky harmonizes and aligns with the universal divine forces in All-That-Is by stepping into the present and trusting that the right time and right place is always right now.
This awareness of examining and exchanging his limiting beliefs sets Sky free to see in possibility and accept the potential to create eternal fulfillment and joy. The Seven Shifts resonates with the wisdom that regardless of how we judge an experience, each one is arranged to awaken our power of perception. Either we can resist fear and let it persist, or embrace and transform it by anchoring in love.
This new consciousness allowed Sky to open up and receive his own call to create, setting an intention to shift the power of perception into the people’s hands through empowered advertising. Called2Create is an invitation for all to make an empowered exodus by abandoning fear and embracing love. Part testimony, part empowerment guide, Sky’s success story is the foundation of Called2Create’s mission.
Currently Sky Sheridan prospers in the place he predicted he would after first seeing it on the television show “Taxi” at six years old in New York City.
