About Neil
L. Neil Thrussell is a guide for men who are ready to stop drifting and start living with purpose. As the creator of the Warrior’s Heart Method, he teaches men how to reconnect with their inner strength, awaken their courage, and build a life aligned with heart, honour, and mission.
For more than two decades, Neil has lived and breathed personal growth. A certified NLP Practitioner, accomplished facilitator, and co-founder of Best U Can B Inc. and the Shin Dao Institute™, he has dedicated his life to helping men step out of isolation and into clarity, connection, and power.
He doesn’t just teach resilience — he embodies it.
Neil has completed three full marathons and multiple half-marathons, proving that discipline and heart can carry a man farther than excuses ever will. His work is grounded, spiritual, and practical… forged through lived experience, not theory.
A Multi-Passionate Author With Two Voices
Neil is a four-time International Amazon Best-Selling Author, best known for the A Warrior’s Heart spiritual fiction series and his newest work, Alchemy of the Heart. His writing blends adventure, wisdom, and personal transformation — stories that call men to rise.
Beyond his spiritual fiction, Neil writes under the pen name Nathaniel Theos, exploring deeper, darker, and more worldly genres — including The 51st State, an intense geopolitical thriller eight years in the making.
