have to, a book club isn't a place for anyone to be teaching other people. It's a place to

share your reading. Yeah. I think not being an expert is sometimes actually an advantage

if you want an actual discussion.

Yeah. actual discussion. Welcome to Skalae Sisters, where we are cultivating the maximum number of thinking moms we can. This is the podcast for classical homeschooling mamas who yearn for

something more than just checking boxes and getting

it all done. Scalae Sisters discusses topics that matter to those of us who believe that

educating ourselves through reading widely, thinking deeply, and applying faithfully,

equips us for the task of educating our children. I'm your host, Brandy

Benzel. To get my free, almost weekly, mostly Charlotte Mason newsletter, go to

afterthoughtsblog.net slash subscribe and sign up. My co-hosts today are Misty Winkler and Abby Wall.

Misty is a homeschooling mom of five, including three graduates.

She writes and podcasts at simplyconvial.com and is the author of two excellent books,

the convivial homeschool and simplified organization.

Abby is basically the queen of the Scholeysistership. Abby is a country-living farmer rancher, a loving wife and mom of five who

homeschools and reads whenever she can. Our fall mentorship, feminism detox, kicked off on Monday, October 27th.

It's not too late to join us.

We're reading three books together and discussing them in a variety of ways.

There are discussion threads where you write out your thoughts, faculty of friends gatherings,

where Misty Abby and I discuss themes and you participate in the chat, and Zoom-style meetups,

where all participants get a chance to chime in. Our mentorships are always a rich experience.

Join in by becoming a Sophie-level member of the sister ship. Just go to
