Sarah Davis, a learning experience designer, lost her father to cancer in 2016. Her experience of grief left her feeling isolated and unbalanced. She had difficulty sharing this experience, mostly because there were so few examples of how to share and navigate the grieving process. She started the podcast Breathing Wind as a space to share and create community for those grieving the loss of a parent. This podcast normalizes sharing loss and grieving.

In Season 2, Breathing Wind focuses on the healing process. Sarah continues to explore parts of the adult journey, such as caregiving to a parent.

Season 3 of Breathing Wind will be about joy, an essential part of the healing process. You can find Episode 1 from Season 3 here. If you find yourself navigating the journey of grief, you are warmly invited to join the community of Breathing Wind.
