Breathing Wind is a podcast about grief and loss and how we journey with these lifelong companions. Naila Francis, grief coach, writer and former journalist and Sarah Davis, podcast consultant, speaker and writer, are cohosts. We offer warm, honest and insightful conversations for the introspective at heart. Launched in 2019 as a personal grief project, the podcast struck a chord with listeners looking for a space to feel less alone in their grief. Quickly, a dedicated community grew around the candid and compelling conversations with others who knew grief just as intimately and those who offered guidance for navigating this universal human experience. In its three seasons of publishing monthly episodes, Breathing Wind has become a trusted space to explore who we become and how we make meaning in the midst of our post-loss lives. It's also the place where joy, laughter, wonder and possibility co-exist alongside deep heartbreak. Find out more at www.breathingwind.com. Follow us on Instagram @breathingwindpodcast.

    "Doors To Grief" Ep. 3: An Artist's Invitation
    Mar 15 2025
    “What first started as a necessity of what I was going through, really evolved into this larger calling and feeling like, Why stop here? There’s so much to uncover.” ~ Brianna Hernández Hi! Guest host Julia Mark here.In this third (and final!) installment of the Doors to Grief miniseries, we’ll hear from the artist, curator, educator, and death doula Brianna Hernández. It was a joy to talk with Brianna about her journey, and what motivated her to create art around grief and dying. While our society often frames death in a dreary light, Brianna’s installations are vibrant, thought-provoking, and deeply intentional. Through her many roles, she encourages people to ask questions about death and dying, reminding us of the agency we have in planning for life’s inevitable close.During this episode, I ask Brianna specifically about two of her installations. You can view photos of those exhibits here:* Útiles Curativos (Brianna’s exhibit about caregiving)* Aquí Descansamos (Brianna’s exhibit about alternate memorials/green burial)I hope you enjoy learning about the creative doors to grief that Brianna Hernández has opened through her work!

    "Doors To Grief" Ep. 1: Asteroid City
    Feb 11 2025

    “In this movie you've got this guy who's, by all accounts, trying really hard to just keep everything together...That ends up being a much more potent thing for communicating this message than something that's more directly trying to address grief.”

    - Andrew Clinnin

    Hi, Julia Mark here. I'm honored to share the first installment of my Breathing Wind miniseries called “Doors to Grief.” In this episode, I talk with Andrew Clinnin about how Asteroid City—a visually playful Wes Anderson film—became an unexpected lens for understanding his experience as a young widower.

    I know today’s guest, Andrew Clinnin through the online grief group he formed via The Dinner Party. Andrew he has created a wonderful space for people in their 20s and 30s who have experienced partner loss. It was a privilege to learn more about his unique journey.

    Whether you’ve seen the film or not, this episode offers a fresh perspective on how stories—both on-screen and in our own lives—shape the way we grieve and grow.

    About Andrew Clinnin:

    Andrew Clinnin lives in San Francisco, trying to survive outside his natural midwestern habitat. He’s most often spotted mumbling to himself behind his work computer, camera, or sewing machine. Andrew’s wife Ellen was a stage actor and playwright who died in 2022 after two COVID-cursed years with gastric cancer. But she doesn’t want us to remember her by that last bit.

    Mentioned in this episode:

    * Asteroid City

    * Sarah’s conversation with the co-founder of The Dinner Party, Lennon Flowers on Apple Podcasts and Spotify (Season 1, Episode 13)
