Welcome Everyone who has wandered here.
My name is Molly and this is my passion. After experiencing a traumatic birth with my son, I found myself struggling with Post Partum Anxiety and Depression and thus became lost in the raging sea that new motherhood can be. The added adversities of being thousands of kilometres from my family during a pandemic made this transition even more difficult bu
t at the end of the tunnel, not only did I see a light I found my calling.
After being a certified social service worker for nearly a decade, I'd thought I would take this skill and blend it together with what my heart was telling me - thus began We The Wild.
This is parenthood done differently. This disconnected, isolating experience that has become motherhood in the western world is relatively new. Up until the 20th century, mothers were mothered by members of their family and community. It was a universal truth that becoming a parent was not only a transcending and transformational experience - it was hard. You needed a village and it was common practice to the mother to simply focus on this process. This new view that parents must carry the burden of it all, that it is weak or shameful to need help and connection and that it is taboo to admit the struggles that we feel as human beings, is disconnecting us and blurs our vision of our authentic selves. It's time that changed.
This is a community of no judgement, acceptance, understanding and support. Welcome.
We the Wild is the intergenerational connection with our ancestors. The ones who guide us, the ones who whisper universal knowledge and love. We the Wild is the humans who howl at the moon, that see stories in fires and secrets in stones. We the Wild is the sacred sister/brother hood of all that see the world for what it truly is.
