In this episode of "Death And," mortician and funeral director Victor M. Sweeney sits down with author and refugee Daniel Nayeri to talk about "Death And Finding Home." Their conversation weaves through Daniel’s experience fleeing Iran as a child after his mother’s religious conversion, what it means to build a sense of home, and the “patchwork” nature of identity for refugees. Daniel reflects on the "fertilizer generation"—being the bridge between an old world left behind and the hope of a future home for his son—while Victor draws parallels to his own journey through different regions and cultures. Together, they unpack how grief, gratitude, and the search for belonging shape our lives, especially for those forced to start anew.
