Include Your Homeschooled Kids in Everything You Do | Christina & Nick Caster, GusPlusUs.com | The Strike a Balance Podcast for Working Homeschool Moms, S2 E63

About the Show On today's episode of the Strike a Balance Podcast for Working Homeschool Moms, I speak to Christina and Nick Caster, creators of Gus Plus Us. Nick’s background is in the music and film industry while Christina’s is in musical theater.  This couple became motivated to create Gus Plus Us once Christina started homeschooling their two children. They strongly believed that the show had to respect the mind of a child. They wanted the show to be meaningful but simple - a show that would bring joy to the whole family. It was so lovely to speak to both a working homeschool mom and dad, for a change. They had so much to share about including their children in the making of the show. And about balancing homeschooling and work as a team, in a positive and gentle way.  You can find Christina and Nick on:  - https://gusplusus.com/  - https://www.instagram.com/gusplusus/  - https://www.youtube.com/@gusplusus Support for Working Homeschool Moms The working homeschool mom journey is better with support.
