About this episode
The episode discusses the importance of courage and fortitude in classical education as part of a series on virtues and vices.
Today's episode is a continuation of our ongoing discussion of virtues and vices.

You're going to love this conversation! *** Are you ready for the Scholé Sisters fall mentorship? The new mentorship — Feminism Detox — kicks off on Monday October 27th. We're reading three books together and discussing them in a variety of ways — there are discussion threads where you write out your thoughts, Faculty of Friends gatherings where Mystie, Abby, and Brandy discuss themes and you participate in the chat, and zoom-style meetups where all participants get a chance to chime in.
