GUEST BIO
Gabriella Wright is an actress, model, activist and motivational speaker with long-standing humanitarian engagement. Alongside her Chopra Foundation initiative, Never Alone, and Deepak Chopra, she is the creator, co-host, and executive producer of Never Alone Artists on Triller. The series brings together popular artists with the Never Alone co-founders, to dive deep into their mental space, creating bridges to our collective vulnerability through the art of storytelling.
As a lifelong thespian, Gabriella has an equal passion for humanitarian causes. She developed Never Alone, a mental well-being and suicide prevention initiative of the Chopra Foundation, which she currently oversees as co-founder alongside Deepak Chopra and Poonacha Machaiah. She is the innovator of the Mental Hygiene Toolkit, a collection of mind cleansing and self-awareness tools that help individuals nurture their bodies, minds and spirit, while developing inner guidance to consciously choose the best path for their lives. Born from the tragic passing of her sister who took her life in 2018, Gabriella’s mission in life has expanded to provide free services to those struggling, and to promote healing for those touched by suicide. She will soon also be seen starring in the indie feature film “I Am Never Alone” in partnership with the Never Alone initiative, which will be making film festival rounds in 2022.

QUOTES
08:42 Gabriella: "When I say I'm engaged in a spiritual experience of being, it's because every morning and every night, I make sure I'm connected in this thread from my heart to the world in, in a way where I always ask the question, how can I listen more deeply, how can I help, am I on my purpose, and how does that make me feel?"
11:28 Gabriella: "When you don't trust the world you live in, you feel completely separate, you feel isolated. I didn't want to dress like a woman, I was dressing like a tomboy. I couldn't walk down the street. I couldn't look at a phone. I was just completely triggered by everything that connected me to a stranger or my sense of self as a woman."
24:49 Gabriella: "Never alone is a love story. And it's a love story because my sister died by suicide and it's an, it's an homage to who she is. But also to all of the others who have experienced the depth of the dark night of the soul and how that dark night of the soul didn't see the light. And unfortunately they lost their lives to suicide."
35:38 Gabriella: "In a world that I would like to live in. I would like there to be no frontiers. I would like people to exchange each other's culture freely. I would love the free exchange of how human beings just migrate from one place to another."
