The Global Affair with Nicole Gibson

Love Out Loud

From my teenage battle with anorexia, I gained a profound understanding of the emotional gaps within our healthcare system. I saw firsthand how our societal avoidance of vulnerability and pain stifles crucial conversations, fuelling my drive for social change.

At 18, I founded a non-profit aimed at equipping Australian communities with the skills necessary for meaningful dialogue. Here, I discovered a universal longing for love, recognition, and true presence.

By 21, I had become the youngest Mental Health Commissioner in Australian history, advising the government on the critical shift from crisis intervention to preventative care.

At 24, I launched Love Out Loud, a movement designed to elevate humanity into an expansive future built on compassion and authentic connection. We champion clarity of mind, body, emotion, and spirit as essential qualities for our future decision-makers. Our mission is to optimize the health of our leaders and build emotional capacity across our society at scale.

On The Global Affair podcast, we are committed to humanising polarising conversations and sharing transformative stories that reshape perspectives and build emotional capacity for individual and collective impact.

Thank you for joining us on this transformative journey.
