You're listening to Skalais Sisters, episode number 50.

Welcome to Skalais Sisters, the podcast for the classical homeschooling mama, who seeks to learn and grow while she's helping her children learn and grow.

Scalae Sisters is a casual conversation about topics that matter to those of us in the trenches

of classical homeschooling, who yearn for something more than just checking boxes and getting it all

done. I'm your host, Brandy Bensel. You can find me at Afterthoughts.

That's my main blog.

And also teaching reading with Bob Books, which is where I keep my line of printable phonics lessons.

You can hear more from me on my other podcast, Aftercast.

My co-hosts today are Misty Winkler and Abby Wall.

Misty is a second-generation homeschooler with five kids and too many projects.

She writes about practical classical homeschooling and organizing attitudes at Simply Convivial.

Abby is not only a friend of ours, she's also one of the hosts on the Sister Ship.

Abby is a country-living farmer, ranchery, loving wife, a mom of five who homeschools,

and she's a reader. She reads whenever she can.

Speaking of The Sistership, this episode is sponsored by The Sistership.

The Sistership is now a hop-in in place with an app. It's for

conversation and camaraderie and even book clubs, both online and local. Our goal with the new and

improved sister ship is to foster community, not only with like-minded women online, but also with

your local ladies who might not always be so like-minded.

We're all better for iron sharpening iron and classical homeschool moms need to seek out dialectic that builds virtue by pushing us toward clarity and commitment.

Visit scalaeysisters.com slash sistership to learn more. We have membership options from free to premiere, and we'd love to have you.

This episode is not the much anticipated second Dorothy Sayers episode.
