In this episode of Everyday Educator, host Lisa Bailey is joined by Amy Jones and Ginny Tran to explore why memorizing matters — for your children and for you. From scripture memory to poetry and classical memory work, discover how memorization builds wisdom, shapes character, and hides beauty in your heart for life. Amy and Ginny share their earliest memories of memorizing — from singing the books of the Bible at church to reciting Twas the Night Before Christmas by the warmth of a mother's voice — and what those moments reveal about how our brains and hearts learn together. Lisa adds her own stories along the way, including the surprising moment a long-forgotten song came back word-for-word on a Valentine's Day drive. But this conversation goes far deeper than memory work checklists. They unpack why the environment of learning matters just as much as the content, how music plants truth in the mind like an earworm that never leaves, and why memorizing whole passages of Scripture — not just isolated verses — can train our children to think alongside Paul, alongside John, and ultimately, alongside God himself. Whether you're in the thick of Memory Master season or simply looking for fresh motivation to make memorization meaningful in your homeschool, this episode will leave you inspired to see memory work for what it truly is: not a box to check, but a treasure to hide in the heart.   This episode of Everyday Educator is sponsored by: Summit Ministries Do you want your child to have conversations that challenge, encouragement that endure, and friends and faith for life?

What would you give up to stand for truth? For Kayleigh Bush, the answer was a crown. When Kayleigh Bush was crowned Miss North Florida in August 2024, she had no idea she'd soon face a choice that would make national headlines. Just four weeks after her crowning, she was presented with a revised Miss America contract that redefined "female" to include biological males who have undergone surgical procedures — directly contradicting her Christian faith and Florida law. She refused to sign. And she refused to stay silent. In this episode of Refining Rhetoric, Robert Bortins sits down with Classical Conversations graduate and viral sensation Kayleigh Bush to talk about what really happened, what it cost her, and why she has zero regrets. From a surprise TMZ interview on a Washington D.C. sidewalk to tens of millions of views, Kayleigh shares how her CC education, her faith, and a community rooted in truth gave her the courage to trade a temporal crown for an eternal one. Whether you're a parent raising kids in a world that's redefining womanhood, a student wondering if standing on convictions is worth it, or simply someone looking for a story of genuine courage — this episode is for you. Resources: She Leads America: sheleadsamerica.com Liberty Counsel (Kayleigh's legal representation): lc.org This episode of Refining Rhetoric is sponsored by Worldview Academy: Students call Worldview Academy the best week of their lives. Through week-long summer leadership camps for teens, Worldview Academy trains Christians to think and live in accord with a biblical worldview so they can better serve Christ and engage the culture around them.

What does it really mean to pass on virtue to your children—and how do you do it in the midst of everyday homeschool life? Join host Amy Jones and veteran homeschooler Chelly Barnard for a rich conversation about cultivating moral goodness in your home. Discover how Classical Conversations' Common Topics can help you define and teach virtue, why reading aloud to your kids well into high school matters more than you think, and practical ways to weave biblical truth into daily conversations without being "preachy." Chelly shares wisdom from 25 years of homeschooling experience, emphasizing that virtue isn't about rigid rules—it's about equipping children to flourish according to God's design. Whether you're wrestling with how to train your children's hearts or simply need encouragement that God fills in your deficits as a parent, this episode offers both inspiration and actionable insights for the everyday CC mom.

Join Delise Germond as she sits down with Robert Bortins, CEO of Classical Conversations and homeschool dad of three, for an engaging conversation about family legacy, educational freedom, and his new book Woke and Weaponized. Robert shares his personal journey from being one of the first 11 students in Classical Conversations to leading the organization for over 13 years. He opens up about the family values that shaped him—hard work, self-discipline, and carrying the family name with honor—and how he's now passing these principles to his own children through practical strategies like job cards instead of allowances and teaching them to work before they play. The conversation dives deep into Robert's extensively researched book, co-authored with award-winning journalist Alex Newman, which traces the historical roots of public education from Robert Owen's "Trinity of Evil" through Prussia to modern-day America. Discover the surprising truth about who's really funding the school choice movement and why educational independence matters now more than ever. Robert also explains what it means to become "anti-fragile" as a family—rejecting consumerism, living within your means, and building resilience that doesn't depend on government systems. Whether you're a homeschooling parent, educator, pastor, or anyone concerned about educational freedom, this conversation offers both warning and hope for raising the next generation to know God and make Him known. This episode of Everyday Educator is sponsored by:  Woke and Weaponized: How Karl Marx Won the Battle for American Education—And How We Can Win It Back – A new book written by Robert Bortins and Alex Newman.  Discover the shocking truth about how current education reform efforts may actually accelerate the destruction of educational freedom. Through meticulous research, Woke and Weaponized traces the philosophical roots of educational corruption from Robert Owen and John Dewey to critical race theory, while offering practical strategies for families ready to pursue genuine educational independence.

What happens when a homeschooled kid grows up, skips the “missing out” narrative, and builds a real community of motivated teens who want to create, lead, and launch?In this episode of The Homeschool How To Podcast, I'm joined by Malcolm—a homeschooled graduate who spent years in Classical Conversations (CC) and is now the founder of Teen Mastermind, a fast-growing entrepreneurship community for teens that's already reaching beyond the U.S.We talk about what homeschooling was actually like from the student perspective—socialization, friendships, motivation, prom/homecoming alternatives, and why Malcolm says he didn't miss out… he dodged a bullet. You'll also hear a clear, simple breakdown of the classical education model (grammar, dialectic/logic, rhetoric) and how CC works week-to-week for families considering it.Then we go deeper into the part parents don't always know how to teach: entrepreneurship. Malcolm shares what he learned from attending business events with his family, why masterminds matter, and how being around the right people can change a teen's trajectory.If you've ever wondered:“Will my kids resent homeschooling?”“How do homeschoolers actually make friends?”“Is Classical Conversations worth it?”“How do I raise a motivated teen with real-world skills?”…this episode is for you.Resources mentioned:theteenmastermind.comteenmastermindlive.comSupport the showInstagram: TheHomeschoolHowToPodcast Facebook: The Homeschool How To Podcast

You've probably heard about this phrase, "DINK Lifestyle"...it stands for "Dual Income, No Kids". This is a lifestyle that some couples are choosing to live, whereby they prioritize work and income and doing whatever they want, without the "burden" of kids. This is a selfish, anti-family, and very sad way to live, and it's vital that we put forward a more compelling vision for the future so that we save as many people as possible from going down this path of regret. Jeremy is joined by Robert Bortins, CEO of Classical Conversations, to talk about the SILK lifestyle..."Single Income, Lots of Kids". We talk about why DINK is so destructive, the underlying philosophy behind it, and how to create a real vision for flourishing. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:08 DINK vs SILK 3:59 Promotion of certain lifestyles 9:37 What's wrong with celebrating DINK? 15:45 Vision for flourishing 21:40 Narratives and deciding what to celebrate Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com Resources Mentioned: X Post: https://x.com/TheRobertBshow/status/1994556735764533374 Classical Conversations: https://classicalconversations.com/ New York Times Article: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/30/opinion/marriage-divorce-happy.html Woke and Weaponized by Robert Bortins: https://wokeandweaponized.com/ Robert's Substack: https://substack.com/@therobertbshow --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!

What if the best thing you could do for your child's education today is to send them outside?

Ginny shares research-backed evidence that complex outdoor movements literally build brain structure and protect against cognitive decline.

Hear honest stories about the modern childhood crisis—from kindergarteners facing 8-hour academic days to middle schoolers pulling out their hair from stress.

Can classical schools really prepare students for STEM careers? Many parents wonder if a humanities-rich education leaves room for science and technology. Our guest, Diane Gray, scientist, musician, contractor, tutor, and mother of seven, says yes. After 12 years in biotech R&D, Diane completed a master's in Classical Studies to explore how classical Christian education and STEM can thrive together.In this conversation with host Davies Owens, Diane shares her research comparing STEM and classical models, revealing that the two are not in competition, but complementary.
