A Half-German, Half-Chinese Mom Raising Four Kids Across Europe, Almost Two Decades Apart

  • Summary

  • In this episode, I sit down with German-born actress Kami Manns, a remarkable mother of four, whose journey spans decades and countries. Born to a German mother and Haaka Chinese father, whom she met for the first time as an adult, Kami has raised her children in three different countries—Germany, France, and Switzerland—each offering unique experiences in postpartum care and child-rearing. With children aged 23, 18, and 4-year-old twin boys, she reflects on navigating the diverse landscapes of alternative schooling, government support, and the stigmas she faced as a young mom in the arts.

    From giving birth across Europe to embracing a nature-focused, stress-free lifestyle for her children, this conversation delves into the challenges and beauty of raising a multicultural family with two decades between her eldest and youngest.
