Jülich was born in 1949 and grew up in Grey Lynn.[1] She was educated at Auckland Girl's Grammar School.[1] Jülich was sexually abused as a child, and her family took the case to court. Despite not receiving the outcome she would have liked from the case, Jülich says she found the process and bringing the abuse into the open empowering.[1] Initially Jülich intended to study law at university, but went to Australia for her OE, where she worked as a community worker. She met her husband, a German engineer, and they travelled with their two children.[1]
