Summary
- Actress Gabriella Wilde trained as a death doula.
- She found the role changed her perspective on life.
- Wilde co-created a podcast about death and grief.
English actress Gabriella Wilde has embarked on a new path as a death doula, offering support to individuals and families during end-of-life care. Wilde, 37, began her training in psychotherapy and found herself increasingly drawn to conversations around grief and mortality.
She discovered that her work as a death doula profoundly impacted her own perspective on life. Wilde emphasized that a key aspect of the role is simply 'being there and showing up' to provide calm support.
Her experiences, including a personal health scare and the loss of her sister, have reshaped her relationship with her acting career. Wilde now approaches the entertainment industry with less intensity.
Wilde has also launched a podcast called MORTAL, which explores themes of death and grief through discussions with various professionals and individuals.
