Biography
Sir James Gray Robinson is a man who has lived many lives in one. Born into a prestigious family of attorneys, he became a third-generation trial lawyer, earning national recognition and professional success in civil litigation and family law. By all outward appearances, he had “made it.” But inside, he was unraveling.
After 27 years of high-stakes legal work and the emotional toll of relentlessly fighting battles for others, James hit a breaking point. In 2004, he walked away from the courtroom, experiencing what he now describes as a complete emotional and spiritual collapse. What followed was not a fall, but a beginning.
Over the next two decades, James embarked on a profound journey of healing, self-discovery, and spiritual awakening—one that included five near-death experiences and a complete transformation of his life’s purpose. Through deep study in neuroscience, energy medicine, quantum physics, epigenetics, and mindfulness, he earned more than 30 certifications in wellness and transformation practices.
Today, Sir James is the founder of the Grayt® brand and Awakening Mastery, where he teaches others—especially professionals under pressure—how to transmute stress into spiritual growth. He is a certified master coach, global speaker, and author of more than a dozen books including Thriving in the Legal Arena, How Big Is Your But?, and Wellness in Law. He has been featured in the Amazon Prime documentary Beyond Physical Matter, and his work has earned him knighthood and a Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award from the Biden administration.
Through coaching, storytelling, and spiritual guidance, Sir James helps others discover what he found in the silence that followed his success: that there is a life beyond performance, beyond breakdown—and that it can be beautiful.
