What happens when homeschool moms and their almost-grown kids get brutally honest about the best, worst, and most surprising moments of their classical education journey? Join Lisa Bailey for a heartfelt journey through the homeschool years with special guests Kelli Wilt, her daughter Libby, and Lisa's daughter Stephanie Meter. In this episode of the Everyday Educator podcast, three generations share their unfiltered perspectives on Classical Conversations, from favorite years and best assignments to honest regrets and surprising lessons learned.

Whether you're a brand-new homeschool parent or deep into your journey, you'll gain valuable insights on:

  • Navigating parent-as-tutor dynamics
  • Building lasting friendships through Classical Conversations
  • The unexpected ways homeschooling transforms parents, not just students
  • Why both graduates plan to homeschool their own children
  • Practical tips on assignments, timeline projects, and Latin learning

This honest, laughter-filled conversation offers both encouragement and practical wisdom for homeschool families at every stage. Perfect for Classical Conversations families and anyone considering the classical Christian homeschool model.
