You're listening to Skalais Sisters, episode number 61.

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.

Scalais 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 Vensel.

You can find me at Afterthought. 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 Pam Barnhill and Misty Winkler.

Pam is a speaker, podcaster, blogger at

Pam Barnhill.com, and author of two fabulous books, Better Together, and the newly released

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

With her blog, podcast, and membership,

she helps you organize your attitude so you can organize your life. Find her over at simplyconvial.com.

I have a special announcement. Coming up in November, we are hosting our first ever month-long challenge.

As you know, principles aren't for having or knowing, they are for living.

Think what a difference that would make and the power of the habit you would

build. Learn more about our challenge by going to scolaysisters.com slash challenge to learn more.

Today's episode was recorded live at the beach house while we were at the fall retreat.

The sound quality is a little less than our usual,

but I can't tell you how fun it was to record face-to-face.

Our topic today is humility and teachableness.
