Blog: A Life of Change
For fifteen years, I have been blogging about what happens when you choose a life that is "different." Here, you can find personal, heartfelt, and passionate stories about the whole journey—from when the children were small to now, when they are grown, and some are even adults.
In our family, things change continuously, always. We certainly have habits and routines, but things shift all the time—the children develop, seasons change, and different phases follow one after another. Any glimpse into our family life, our routines, or "how we do things" should therefore be understood as snapshots—examples of what is possible.You will find articles from the past that in no way describe where we are in our lives today. That is the beauty of living: evolving, learning, and growing wiser, while filling life with "star moments." Even though we no longer eat gluten, watch TV, or spend hours in front of an iPad, I have chosen to leave the old articles up for the enjoyment and inspiration of those who wish to read them.

Podcast on Unschooling, parenting and living a self directed life
I share my knowledge and curiosity about family life and learning in my two podcasts.
Podcast om Unschooling - The Ladies...
It all started in Normandie, France, during a worldschooling event, when I was solving all the problems of the world in deep dive conversations with my amazing friends: I realized - wuauv, if only I had had the chance to listen in on something like this, when I was first starting out on my unschooling journey. If I had only known! Fixing the world over a cup of tea or a meal or a walk, I realised technology today allows us to share with a much larger group than the ones around us. Via long-format podcast, I learn a lot, and this is my contribution: Listen in, when I fix the world with my co-hosts.
Podcast: Self Directed
Self Directed is a podcast I make with my husband, Jesper Conrad. We have recorded more than 150 episodes, almost all of them about self-directed learning, unschooling and being a parent.
The podcast consists of conversations with guests who live and think differently about learning, life and family life, exploring how to create space for children where freedom, responsibility and curiosity have room.
Welcome to a universe of reflections on the radically different.
Podcasts and writing on childhood, feminism, unschooling, modernity, consumer culture, inner and outer journeys, nomad life, spirituality, paths and detours.
Life is not an experiment – it is far too important for that. But it is also not just another package on the mainstream sausage factory line. With all senses open and infinitely vulnerable – also and perhaps especially to my own limitations – I have challenged what life can be, to find a way of being in it that makes sense.
I felt it was important to share, in the hope that the path might be easier to find for others who feel the box is a little too small. Here you can find it all, in writing and as podcasts.
Get an email whenever I'm giving a talk, running a workshop, or have something new to share.
I send newsletters very rarely—honestly, the best way to reach me is via WhatsApp—but if you want to be the first to know when I have news, you can sign up below.
I’ll also reach out whenever we occasionally create something new that I think you’d love to hear about."
