Welcome, welcome to Round Trip Death everybody.

We're so happy to have our guest today, Nicole Consiglio coming to us from Wisconsin in the United States.

How are you, Nicole?

I'm good.

How are you?

I'm great.

I just want to give a little bit of a heads up to our listeners before we jump into your near -death experience.

Quite often on this show things are so positive and there's lots of butterflies and unicorns and glitter and you know, whatever but sometimes people's experiences in an NDE are Much more rugged and a little bit harder to listen to So you've been forewarned today is one of those if you have small children, you might not want to have them listening But there's always a great message and there's also some fun things that we're going to talk about today too.

So with that bit of introduction, hi again, Nicole.

Would you mind just telling us a little bit about you so we can get to know you today?

Yeah, I was born and raised in Waukesha, Wisconsin.

I am a mom of three teen girls and I don't know who I am anymore.

I spent 27 years in medical up until 2020.

During COVID, I decided that I needed to walk away from the medical field.

And that was really the beginning of my journey into my near -death experience.

Hmm.

Do you mind if I ask what were your thoughts on why you wanted to walk away?

I was deep into alcohol.

I became an alcoholic and I guess my drinking became more of my job than a job.

But also with COVID, I knew I needed to walk away from the medical field just because my mental health wasn't the greatest in 2020 as well.

Yeah, what a rugged time.

It was.

Especially for people in hospitals and things.

And our thanks goes out to them.

So your experience came four years ago.

Yes.

Alcohol started the whole thing, but Did the alcoholism and the loss of job lead to you being suicidal?

I had made several suicide attempts or had ideas prior to.

I grew up with an alcoholic father, two neglectful, emotionally immature parents.

I raised my sister by myself.

I raised myself with very little guidance from my parents.

So I knew better.

than to drink and become an alcoholic due to my dad.

But in 2016, I chose to walk out of a marriage.

I swear it kind of gets sticky, but he was a fraud.

So I actually began drinking in that marriage.

I also had severe postpartum depression with my, especially my last daughter.

That just kind of got the snowball going.

I got addicted to my prescription pills as well, like Xanax.

some migraine medicine.

I went from the prescription pills to the drinking.

And then after my divorce in 2017, I became a nightly drinker.

By 2019, 2020, I was drinking before work and after work and all throughout the night.

So yeah, it became my focus.

So it went from alcoholism to a suicide mission, subconsciously.

All right.

Well, let's jump to July of 2021.

Well, a few days before that, July 17th of 2021, my oldest daughter had texted me and she said, Mom, you need to get help.

And if you don't get help, we're not coming over ever again.

So that was my ultimatum to get help.

Before, even before that, I had started to water down my drinks and try to wean myself off.

July 21st, I can look back at pictures.

I have pictures on my phone leading up to that and I don't have many memories.

But something guided me to go outside that afternoon on July 21st, 2021.

And I was found unconscious in my driveway.

and it was my neighbor who was an RN found me laying there.

She came over and was starting to shake me awake.

However, when I was found unconscious, I was actually having the near death already, the experience.

So in that instant, I was laying down what looked like a workout bench and there were two girls standing at my seat and they looked like they were looking at something and they turned around and they attacked me.

And they held me down.

And I began to fight them.

And there was a phone that happened to appear on the wall.

And I grabbed the phone and it was instantly connected to a friend of mine.

And I began screaming, don't believe them, don't believe them.

And then I was woken up by my neighbor.

She had been rubbing my chest trying to get me to wake up.

And I stumbled up the driveway.

I got to the door.

and I realized I had my phone in my hand still.

So I called my former husband.

We divorced last year.

I called him and said, I need help.

I'm ready for health now.

He was super excited that I had finally asked for help.

He couldn't get to our house fast enough, so he called my brother.

And my brother happened to be in some coincidence, if you will.

He happened to be coming back from Green Bay that day and was driving past my exit.

to get to my house.

So he was there within five minutes and he was able to take me to the ER.

When into the ER, I finally said the words I needed to say for three years plus was, I need help.

I'm an alcoholic and I'm in detox and I need some help.

I was taken back to the ER room, asked a bunch of questions and the doctor said we need to get a CT scan of your head.

So they took me into CT scan.

I remember being wheeled out and brought back into the room and the nurse said to me we have something that we can give you to relax and I accepted and at that point everything went black.

I don't really remember much.

My brother said something happened to you when they gave you that medication to relax because you went from talking and being pretty coherent to They couldn't get you awake.

Then you started having trouble breathing.

And within, I think it was one to two hours, I was transferred out of my local hospital and sent to the major hospital in Milwaukee where I was put in liver transplant ICU on a ventilator, on life support, and I went unconscious.

And the other side of it, I remember being sucked up into like a vortex, like a tornado.

It was dark and dirty.

I had, I opened my eyes and I had darkness all around me.

Something was on top of me, on my throat, choking me out.

And I fought so hard.

I was being killed.

I couldn't breathe.

And I fought and I pushed.

It felt like a barbell across my throat and 500 pounds.

And I pushed this thing off with all my might.

This black shadow scurried off to the right as the Shadows scurried off.

I looked up and there was a balcony above me.

It was really dimly lit and it was my neighbor that had passed away in 1986.

He was standing there.

I had been best friends with his daughter growing up and he had his arms crossed like this and he looked pretty upset that I was where I was at.

He then floated from the top of this balcony to my face and basically touched noses with me.

and then he floated back up onto this balcony.

I looked over to my left, and my mom was standing there.

My mom was still alive at the time she passed away a year later, actually.

She was standing there, also looking really upset that I was in this position.

And then as I looked over, trying to figure out where I was at, the room lit up in a golden amber light, this warm, loving light.

and Jesus glided out of this doorway.

He didn't speak, but he had the long brown hair, a white gown full of light.

He just shone so bright.

And he just stared at me.

He didn't speak to me.

I looked over to my left and my ex -husband was also on the floor with me in this near death.

He was chained down and looked horrified that he was there.

When the room lit up I could look behind me and there were entities sitting behind me almost like we were in a courtroom and behind Yahshua or Jesus there were little balls of light kind of bubbling around on this balcony.

As I was looking around a lightning bolt came down out of nowhere and a brilliant lightning bolt, powerful.

The vividness of this lightning bolt I deal with flashbacks daily.

And it struck me in the chest.

It made this thunderous boom.

Within that boom came the voice that said, make your decision, commanding me to make my decision.

I lurched up.

I could hear the chains rattling.

I just had just realized that I was chained down as well.

And I sat up and I screamed, I want my babies.

In that moment, with God and in this scene, I reacted physically as well.

Nine people had to hold me down in the ICU.

April 20th of this past year of 2024, I was scrolling through TikTok and a video popped up and it was the tomb of Jesus.

And I watched this video and realized that is where I was in my near death.

I come from a family of no faith.

My dad was a 19 50s altar boy who was abused in the Catholic Church.

So we were just told to stay away from the church and we didn't really have a relationship with God or anything.

So I didn't know the tomb of Jesus even existed until I saw that video and I realized that's where I was in this near -death.

I was in the tomb of Jesus.

Wow.

Okay.

I want to unpack a little bit of this before we move on further if you're okay with that.

Mm -hmm.

Did you feel like there was a time that you left your body?

Yes.

Okay.

Because I'm trying to sort of figure out where you someplace else, but then you remember being held down in the ER.

So it sounds like you were kind of in and out.

Is that how you felt?

I was outside.

It's like I had an awareness of everything going on in the near death and in the physical reality.

So I was There and there.

I actually knew nine people held me down.

I didn't ask.

Well, I had a vision of some people running in and holding me down.

And I asked my brother and my sister, did nine people come in and hold me down?

And they were like, yes, how did you know?

And I just knew how my new nine people had held me down.

I do have other out of body experiences where I was standing shoulder to shoulder.

My brother was here.

My ex -husband was here and I was standing between them.

And we were both, we were all looking at my body in the ICU bed.

And my brother said, what if she doesn't make it?

And my ex -husband said, I don't know.

And I could actually recount that when I came out of my coma.

I do have the vision of that.

So you were out of body.

They were not.

They were alive.

And you were Having their kind of perspective on what was going on or as if you were kind of standing over their shoulder Wow, that's interesting.

Yeah, this is kind of different.

All right, you saw this figure of Jesus How did you know it was him?

Was it because he looked like the pictures?

That you've seen or was there some other way that you felt it was him just by looking at him I knew but also by the pictures the white gown his his light was brilliant.

It was almost blinding So it's just one of those things where I was like, oh, that's Jesus.

That's amazing.

You just automatically knew.

Automatically knew.

Okay.

Now the tomb of Jesus, is this the one over in Jerusalem that it's hewn out of rock and it has like a circle kind of thing over?

Okay.

So you felt like you were in that place being held down.

Wow.

Okay, I want to hear more about the lightning bolt.

That's unusual too.

It just came out of nowhere, out of thin air.

It scared me so bad to my core.

The power that came from it, the light was so blinding.

Like it just blinded me and I got mad.

I didn't get scared at that point.

Then I got mad and I yelled at this lightning bolt that I wanted my babies.

And it said, make your decision.

And the decision I assume was stay here or go back.

I believe so, to either stay where I was or Go back.

But that wasn't Jesus talking.

No, that was God.

Okay.

That was my God.

But you got upset with this God.

Yes, I got mad and I screamed at him.

Of course, children do scream at their parents sometimes, don't they?

Right.

That's so true.

Wow.

I'm just wondering what else you felt through this.

Were there times of fear and times of peace?

What kinds of things did you feel?

It was mostly terrifying.

I was panicking.

It felt like a never -ending dream, but it felt too real to be a dream.

It was too vivid in color, but mostly it was distressing.

I came back really afraid and I have PTSD now because of it.

I get daily flashbacks.

Even with the Jesus part, it was distressing.

Yes, because there was more to it.

After I screamed at God, then I was on the soul work, what felt like soul work.

In one particular, I was looking for a girl named Mary and I was running through Milwaukee bars trying to find Mary.

And I can remember running through it had wood paneling.

I could remember details like the bar was over here running through there was like a gambling machine and a wood paneling wall.

And I'm screaming for this girl named Mary.

I don't know who Mary is.

I don't know what she looks like, but I am running through these scenes trying to find Mary.

In the next scene, I was at a trap house, a drug house.

Blue walls, the disco ball was going, music was going.

The floor was really sticky.

I was scared.

Again, don't know who Mary is, why I'm looking for her.

But eventually I got, my soul got tired and I fell asleep on the sticky blue walled room.

And then in the next scene, I am at a church and I can remember looking up at the church, seeing the brick on the walls.

and running into the door, going into the church, screaming for this Mary, so afraid I can't find her.

And I run up the stairs and I come to an open area that kind of looks like a kitchen and there's a nun carrying a baby.

And I screamed, is that Mary?

And the lady looked at me and she said, yes, this is Mary.

And I put my hand on Mary and I said, thank God I found Mary.

And when I said those words, my near -death changed into a more peaceful scene.

So there are some commonalities here with distressing experiences.

And that is that they often go from scene to scene to scene, sort of like you're explaining.

And some are even much, much more horrific than what you had to go through.

I know you've studied a few of those too.

Okay, keep going.

What else was there that happened?

Well that was pretty much the end of the distressing.

I had more out of body experiences.

There is one where I was sitting, this is part of the distressing, where I was sitting in a room full of plastic and there's a chandelier behind me and this room is just walled off in plastic and I'm sitting on a ledge and I'm waiting and I don't and I'm scared, I'm lonely, it's cold, it's dreary, it's kind of like just a dreary crappy day type of feeling.

I knew I was in the void or the abyss.

I could feel it.

And I was waiting for my cousins.

They arrive eventually.

I see my oldest cousin Tony come up.

His wife is there.

And he says, we're waiting for their sons.

And I follow them around.

They don't know that I'm there.

They can't hear me talking, trying to wave my arms, get their attention.

The boys finally arrive.

and they're working on this house.

But again, it's scary because nobody could see me, nobody could hear me, nobody could help me.

I was just so lonely in this space that I was in.

And I did talk to my cousin post -coma and he can verify that he was actually at his lake house that weekend working on his house that was under construction.

And I'd only been there one other time 10 years before.

So a lot of it was out of body experiences as well.

which was terrifying when you don't understand where are you, you know, and to have such detail afterwards.

How did this all come to an end?

I know you were in the hospital for quite some time.

I was in the hospital for about 40 days and I want to backtrack to Mary real quick.

Come to find out later on after talking to my mom.

My mom had a baby sister named Mary who had died shortly after childbirth.

It bothered my mom every day that she didn't know what happened to Mary.

So I do believe that I did some soul work for my family to find baby Mary.

That's the only thing that makes sense was that my mom had a sister named Mary that passed away at birth.

And it always bothered my mom that she could never figure out where Mary was buried or what happened to her.

So I do feel like that was the soul work.

That I needed to do for my family was to locate Mary.

All right.

How's your life changed from all of this?

I've lost everybody basically I had a spiritual awakening seven months after coming out of the coma and That scared them.

They were around when I had a couple my awakenings and suddenly I was able to channel and Have mystical things happen to me.

So that scared them.

I have a relationship with my youngest but my older two just have kind of went the wrong way for a while.

It's just kind of keep mom at a distance.

So I'm trying to deal with life without really being a mom right now.

I end up getting a divorce.

I can't work and I do have trouble working just because of the PTSD and the complex trauma.

This hurled me into a healing journey that I was not prepared for after the spiritual awakening, all of my trauma.

came to the surface.

So I'm still working on that and building myself back up.

But I can channel.

I connect to Spirit.

I can connect to God.

The universe gives me little winks here and there to let me know that I'm doing okay.

But I've pretty much lost my life.

I lost my house.

I got divorced.

The house went up for sale.

The car got repode.

Right now I kind of feel like a sad country song.

It's not funny, but I'm glad you can laugh about it a little bit.

That is so rough.

Yeah.

That is so rough.

How's the recovery from alcohol going?

I couldn't really do AA.

I needed to go right with God.

So I can actually just thank God because it's just been something I needed to deal with personally with God.

And so it's been great.

I've been sober.

I don't drink.

If I'm around alcohol, I get nauseous.

So congrats on that.

That is a tough, tough journey.

Are you glad that you were given that ultimatum from your daughter?

Was that a good thing?

She's my angel, the one that saved me.

Yes, I thank her as much as she'll allow me to.

I think she's getting tired of me thanking her, but I do.

Yeah, I do thank her.

Could you use that as advice for other families going through something like this?

Yes.

The alcoholism destroyed my relationship and tore me apart as a mom.

It's been hard to connect to being a mom again after you've destroyed your own family.

Yeah.

All right.

Let's talk about something fun for a change.

A little change of mood here.

And that is we're going to talk about electronics.

I've had some people on the show that This didn't happen before their NDEs, but after their NDEs they had unusual things happen with electronics such as wristwatches would stop working, cell phones wouldn't work, etc.

And you were telling me just a couple of little things like that.

Tell me what's going on with you.

And this only came up because when we first started recording everything quit and didn't work and we had to start over again.

Give me some examples of what happens to you.

I was at Barnes and Noble one day checking out.

The whole computer system shut down.

A couple of times I've been at my local library checking out books and the self -checkout will crash and I have to have them reboot it.

Electronics, they drain a lot when I'm channeling or when there's a lot of high vibrational energy around me.

My phone will drain pretty quick.

You mean the battery will go like from 100 % to 20 % in a couple of minutes?

Yes.

On my computer, it'll just shut down completely.

Just out of nowhere.

Sometimes if my phone is glitching, if I blow on it, it's enough to get it to stop glitching.

So you always see me blowing on my...

Yeah, I can blow on my phone and it'll stop glitching.

Okay.

Just letting people know.

When they see Nicole blowing on her phone, there's a good reason for it.

There's a good reason.

Okay.

Anything else?

How about gas pumps?

Nothing on gas pumps yet.

Okay.

Good.

All right, Nicole.

Well, this has been a roller coaster, but you know, congrats on coming along.

This has been a rough journey for you and just keep hanging in there.

Cause my mom used to always say, keep your chin up.

Yes.

All right.

Give us some final thoughts here.

I'm going to give you the last word.

Give thanks to our Creator, to the universe.

I don't think us humans give gratitude like we should to the bigger picture of things, especially right now with everything going on in the world.

We definitely need to look at higher powers to try to pull us out.

I'm living testimony that I have nothing living out of my car and borrowing the space to be able to do this interview, but I keep my faith.

every day.

And I know that God and the universe and my angels and my ancestor spirit team, they're all working in my favor, trying to get me the best life possible.

And it takes a strong person to really put faith into invisible forces.

Okay, well said.

Well, Nicole, thanks for being with me today.

And just a reminder, If anybody listening or a loved one, there's a great crisis hotline out there.

Just dial 988 on your phone from nearly anywhere in the world and you can talk to somebody and get some help.

So be sure to do that.

We want you to stay here and you can work through these tough things.

Nicole's a good example of that.

Absolutely.

I'm a walking miracle.

I shouldn't be here.
