In this inspiring conversation, we sit down with Susan Wise Bauer, historian, author, educator, and co-creator of The Well-Trained Mind: A Guide to Classical Education at Home. Susan shares the story behind the book and offers practical wisdom for parents and educators seeking a more thoughtful, structured approach to learning. We explore:what classical education really means—and why it matters now more than ever, the stages of the Trivium: grammar, logic, and rhetoric; how to nurture curiosity, critical thinking, and a lifelong love of learning.
