About the Founder

Hi, I’m Courtney Raecker, founder of True North.

wife | mother | homeschool educator | entrepreneur

I started True North in 2021 out of a deep passion for helping families like yours get unstuck — in homeschool, work, and life.

Why? Because I believe every person is uniquely created by God with skills, talents, and abilities the world needs. There’s only one you, and your family’s contributions truly matter.

As a homeschool parent myself, I’ve lived the struggle of feeling stuck:

  • Frustrated when our structure and routine didn’t fit our family’s needs

  • Overwhelmed by too many choices and not knowing what would work best

  • Near burnout, longing for a more sustainable way forward

But I also know the joy of moving from surviving to thriving — when homeschooling becomes intentionally designed, flexible, and life-giving.

My heart is to walk alongside families who want more than just “getting through” the days. I love connecting people with practical tools, meaningful resources, and personalized solutions that bring joy, purpose, and peace back into the homeschool journey.

At my core, my True North™ is this: helping families discover their unique design, align it with their values, and live life to the fullest — together.

I would, personally, like to invite you to join this growing community!

INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED HOMESCHOOLING

When your child’s homeschool experience is intentionally designed to closely align with your family’s needs and aspirations, the overall experience feels more joy-filled, purposeful, and meaningful. You go from surviving … to thriving together!

We are committed to helping your family live your lives to the fullest and in the most meaningful way, especially as you navigate your family’s homeschooling journey!

What are you waiting for? Let’s do this together!
