Muse and Hearth
Muse and Hearth is a podcast for Christian women who want to extend the ideas behind classical education and the Great Books tradition into all of life. Too often we leave the intellectual rigor of the liberal arts in the towers of academia, or in the textbooks. But what if we as women, as wives, as mothers, made that intellectual tradition a part of our own habits and our family culture?

Episode 2
We recorded this episode during the Coronavirus pandemic shutdowns in March/April. Lots of time at home got us to thinking about home decor, making inviting spaces, and interior design. We discuss two of Myquillyn Smith’s books The Nesting Place and The Cozy Minimalist Home. Smith’s books encourage jumping in and not waiting for the perfect time or materials to make your home more inviting. She helps point us toward gratitude for “the space I’m in now.”
