Soul Toll™

You deserve to feel
free in your life.

Something in you already knows when a choice is costing more than it's giving back. The energy, the time, the sense that something is off. Anusia Gillespie has spent two decades studying that math — in boardrooms, on stages, and in the work of finally building a life that felt like hers.

She speaks, hosts, and writes for people who are done performing the life they built and ready to live the one they actually want. The tools are real. The conversations are honest.

The outcome is freedom.

About Anusia

Anusia Gillespie spent two decades building a life that looked exactly right — and kept asking herself why it didn't feel that way. She's a two-time exit executive, most recently a leader in the largest legal AI acquisition in the world at $1B, and the author of Soul Toll. She built her way out of a life that wasn't hers. This platform is what she wished she'd had along the way.

She speaks at the intersection of human experience, science, and the mystical — the three places most speakers choose between. She has co-taught through Harvard Law School Executive Education with Thinkers50 honoree Dr. Heidi K. Gardner and spoken on global stages alongside Oxford's Richard Susskind OBE. Her talks give audiences a practical framework and the courage to actually use it.

She lives north of Boston with her husband, young son, and old dog.

"Gillespie's supernatural tale mixes motivational ideas with fantasy elements … an imaginative, genre-blurring novel."

Kirkus Reviews

  • At its core, Soul Toll is about rediscovering what truly matters—beyond the promotions, power, and prestige—and finding the courage to reclaim your true self.

    —BookLife Review

  • Impressively original, deftly crafted, emotionally engaging, and a memorably riveting page-turner of a read from start to finish.

    —Midwest Book Review

  • In this genre were magic often overshadows meaning, Soul Toll delivers both—brilliantly. The novel blends current reality with the surreal in a way that feels revelatory.
