Chilling | Day 198 of my 2023 Journal of my 2023 Journal

Cecilie Conrad·Jul 17, 2023· 1 minute

All day the plan was to go to see more of the festival.

But the garden was nice, and we were in slow mood.

We cooked an early dinner so we could go out without the need for food, but we took our time and, in the end, decided to chill.

All the little things.

The little things that are actually big.

We did them.

All day long and very far into the late evening.

So it goes sometimes.

The adventure can be the silence.

Love and light

Unschooling and Parent consulting, conversations, blogposts, and podcasts on family life and learning

Hi, I'm Cecilie Conrad. I'm a trained psychologist, mother of four, radical unschooler and full-time traveller. I have lived with unschooling for over a decade and help other families find their own path – whether it is about homeschooling, unschooling, or the bigger question of how you want to live as a family.

I offer guidance, conversations and talks. I call my work grandmothering – not coaching in the traditional sense, but presence, professional insight and concrete help navigating motherhood and finding your way home to your own values.

Am I the right person to help you? You can book a free discovery call, and we'll talk and figure it out.
