He is the author of bestselling book, Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds and Shape Our Futures 🍄 In this episode Gabriella and Merlin discuss how reconnecting to ancient and natural rhythms of death, decomposition and rebirth might change how we feel about our own mortality.

    Grief expert Julia Samuel: ‘Have the conversations well before anyone is ill’ - Why We Need to Talk about Death

    Gabriella is joined by psychotherapist, author and grief expert Julia Samuel MBE. She is the founder / patron of Child Bereavement UK and the author of best selling books: Grief Works, This Too Shall Pass and Every Family Tells a Story. In 2015 Julia received an MBE for her services to bereaved children. Gabriella and Julia discuss growing up with an awareness of loss before they understood it, the role of 'forget and move on’ in our cultural history as well as the non linear process of grief, its role in our lives, and why the love and support of others is so crucial when we are suffering. Julia speaks about the importance of having conversations within families before people are ill, and why we need to be courageous in connecting with people who are dying and grieving.
