Be a Student of Your Child /// Krysten Callina /// Part1:EP148

  • Summary

  • What do you think of when you think someone is homeschooled? What do you think when someone homeschools their kids?

    Homeschooling is a great example of the subtle biases we all project onto other because of our cultural influences.

    There are many reasons for homeschooling and it’s important to understand when it makes sense for your kids. In this conversation with Krysten, we get into some of those reasons and why she made that very decision.

    Today we are with Krysten Callina. She is the Founder of Mastermind Adventures LLC, a talent management agency for professional game masters of tabletop role playing games (like Dungeons & Dragons). Krysten helps people find connection and community through games so they can embrace their creativity and individuality and have more fun. Her goal is to create the industry standard for professional game masters and to establish a vibrant, safe community of fans of role playing games.

    Examples of non-traditional game applications developed by Mastermind Adventures are Quest! Adventure Game for Social Skills Mastery to help kids improve their social emotional skills, and The Game of Influencers, a unique training program for businesses to learn about how to use influencers as part of a marketing strategy.

    Mastermind Adventures is currently developing programs that will serve as inroads for young people into the gaming industry - especially for kids in marginalized communities. Krysten is a serial entrepreneur, loves cooking, gardening, photography, interior decorating, nerd topics and whiskey.
