05: Legacy-Minded and Future-Oriented

When someone passes, how do we honor their legacy? Through doing or by being?

Breathing Wind Podcast

Mar 03, 2020

It’s a trade-off between - I know I need to take care of myself and my own future - and at the same time, I’ve become the custodian of this incredible set of resources.

In this episode, I interview Dr. Haakon Faste, a design educator and innovation consultant. Dr. Faste discusses growing up with a father who encouraged him to be a maker and designer, as well as how that has shaped his outlook today as an educator.

In the episode, Dr. Faste talks about:

His father’s perspective on education, design, and other interests.
The experience of being with his dad during one of the last weeks of his life.
The importance of preserving his father’s legacy in the way he lived.

Discussion about this podcast

Breathing Wind

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.
