Dr. Nicole Gruel is an author, speaker, and transformational coach who descends from a long line of samurai. She has spent over two decades actively exploring human potential. A near-death experience and sudden loss of several family members as a teenager initiated her journey into the non-ordinary realms and into seeing how ordinary people deal with extraordinary experiences. She’s made it her life mission to help other experiencers navigate their NOTEs so they can make the most of these exceptional events, live their most desired life, and share their gifts with the world.
Her books have been featured in leading Australian wellness magazines and inspired people around the world to dive deep and take soulful action. She combines her experience in teaching, international development, healing arts, counselling, Eastern philosophy, depth and transpersonal psychology, sacred ceremony, and creative expression to inspire grounded personal transformation and intentional collective action.
Dr Nicole Gruel has a PhD in Integral and Transpersonal Psychology. She is a board member of IANDS (International Association for Near Death Studies),
co-developer of IANDS Sharing Groups Online (ISGO™), mentor for life coaches at ACISTE (American Centre for the Integration of Spiritually Transformative Experiences), Gifts Compass™ advisor & training facilitator, and former NSW/ACT president of the Australian Association of Psychological Type (AusAPT).
