What we do
Louise Pham, Founder
Sharing my story was the first thing that helped me feel less alone. It grounded me, connected me, and reminded me that vulnerability has power.
it started with my own videos — as a way to process what i had been through, and to help others feel a little less alone.
​
Now, the gentle undoing is expanding beyond my own story - creating space for others to share their experiences of illness and change.
​
At its core, it’s about leaving with a sense of connection, support, and making room for the imperfect.
The why
We focus on the quiet “after” - the in-between phase when treatment ends, crisis settles, and life is meant to feel normal again, but doesn’t. This is the space where identity shifts, routines feel fragile, and people are often left to rebuild largely on their own.
Through lived-experience storytelling, creative media, and community connection, The Gentle Undoing acknowledges that each person’s story is deeply personal - entirely their own, and worthy of being seen, even when it feels messy or unfinished.
​
We’re here to listen, to hold space, and to honour each story as it is.
​
Our work blends:
-
personal storytelling
-
long-form and short form interviews
-
creative, lived experience content
-
community collaboration
​
These elements explore themes of identity, grief, healing, routine, belonging, and what it means to rebuild a life after everything has changed.
​
Here, we share stories about what it means to rebuild - emotionally, physically and socially. Not to offer perfect answers, but to give language to experiences that are often invisible. To remind people they’re not the only ones moving through the quiet, complicated parts of survivorship and change.
