When beginning this journey of homeschooling my children during COVID, I had no idea how much I would love studying history with them! I find myself pouring over books and listening to podcasts to delve deeper into the subjects we are learning together. After learning more about Queen Isabella of Castile and the details of her early life, I have been bursting to share them with you! She is a woman that exhibited amazing leadership way ahead of her time, has had quite a controversial life, but also had a huge impact on the world today. Her funding of Christopher Columbus’ journey to discover America has impacted every one of our lives. Listen with me for some interesting things you may never have known about her faith and courage.
