Hi mamas & papas,
It’s so good to have you here.
About “Raising our Wilde”
Raising our Wilde is a weekly publication for the already mothers and fathers, and the mothers and fathers to be who choose to raise their children a little differently, wild and free. It all originated from the desire to have a space free from perfectionism and labels, one in which we can all come together, learn from each other and grow together so we can establish and nurture a healthy, respectful and flourishing relationship with our children.
Here you will get
weekly, honest and vulnerable essays on motherhood/parenthood, raising kids slowly, what it is like to raise children intentionally and respectfully in todays climate, how to find a village of like minded parents, alternative schooling, nourishment for body and mind, days-in-the-life, our favourite resources and more.
About me
My name is Claudia. I grew up in Austria but have since moved to the other side of the continent to raise our beautiful children alongside my partner, who I have met solo traveling in Panama - of all places.
Apart from homeschooling my children on our acreage farm, my life has been enriched by many things such as writing, photography, yoga, meditation, breathwork alongside other healing practices as well as the ever evolving tools that helped me return back to self after feeling just a little lost once entering motherhood (on top of all the past traumas we all somehow carry).
Writing, for me, has been the bridge between the external and internal worlds. The pages have revealed a lot and brought immense healing as well as clarity around who I am, why things happened and how to heal. So did creatively expressing myself through art, photography and videography, poetry and more.
The decision to homeschool and raise our babies away from the noise has not only had a huge impact on myself as a woman and mother but also our families and communities. I have become hugely passionate about conversations around raising kids slowly and intentionally, sharing a respectful space in which all is welcome and nothing needs to be hidden. It has not only allowed me - my inner child - to grow but also to truly notice the magic an undisturbed childhood holds for our children.
It’s a blessing to now share it all here with you, sit at the table together and learn from each other. You can subscribe here for free if you haven’t done so already. I’m looking forward to getting to know you all in the comment section or chats.
With love,
Claudia x
