Grief Talking with Actor/Writer Greg Wise
From The Convex Conversation · 42:10
Show by Convex
Actor Greg Wise talks openly about the profound personal losses he’s experienced in life including the death of his beloved sister and close university friend and how, like many men, he eventually buckled under the weight of stored grief. Greg took the brave step of asking for help a year after the birth of his daughter Gaia, when he and his wife Dame Emma Thompson found themselves engulfed in deep sadness after multiple further IVF attempts failed. In his new book, Grief Talking - Tales of Loss and Learning, he explains how learning to face grief, do the work, sit with it, he’s come out the other side more compassionate, more loving and wanting to help others. Greg also talks about his love of chainsaws (!) escapes to the wild West Coast of Scotland with Mrs Wise and teases his new series on Netflix. Photograph by Nick Haddow
