Christina Baehr is one of the calmest, happiest women you’ll ever meet, which is remarkable, considering she lives off-grid in Tasmania’s Huon Valley, homeschools her 10 kids (yes, 10!), runs a hostel with her husband, and somehow finds time to write fantasy novels… five of them. Three were typed entirely on her iPhone during any spare moment to herself she could get. Today, Christina shares her incredible journey, from growing up as an only child in rural Tassie, to marrying an American, to building a life full of chaos, connection, and creativity. We talk homeschooling, mental load, motherhood, and how a tough year led to her most unexpected creative breakthrough. Her story is extraordinary, but the way she tells it makes you feel like anything is possible. This is her story.
