About me

Gender Female
Industry Non-Profit
Occupation Writer and Parenting Mentor
Location Thailand
Introduction My name is Carrien Blue and I'm a writer, and parent mentor. I help parents raise resilient children. My passion for helping parents to protect their children and raise them to be resilient has extended to creating resources that have helped thousands of refugee and migrant families on the Thailand/Myanmar border through my work with The Charis Project, which my husband and I are the co-founders of. ​ I am personally the mother of 6 amazing and rather resilient humans, who have managed to thrive in spite of being dragged around the world by their parents and their extremely unconventional upbringing.

How is an ankle unlike a consequence?

I didn't get to choose my ankle.
