Realizing all the transferable skills I had and being confident enough to reword my experiences and skills to match other careers plus the community, knowing others were in the same position as me and feeling the same feelings about pivoting from full-time guaranteed work into the unknown was what made it worth it for me."

Tired of applying to jobs that go nowhere
Not sure what roles are actually a good fit
Struggling to explain your value outside the classroom
Spinning in circles trying to do this alone
This is your next step
You’ve helped hundreds of students find their way. Now it’s your turn.
Meet Your Mentor
Hi, I’m Autumn, a former classroom teacher who once googled “jobs for burnt-out educators” at midnight. I remember the spiral: the job boards, the doubts, the “what else am I even qualified for?” panic.
That search turned into a mission and eventually, a career I love. I now work full-time in corporate (yes, I genuinely enjoy it!) while helping fellow teachers make their own transitions. Since leaving the classroom, I’ve helped 50+ educators land roles that feel aligned, pay well, and actually make sense for their lives.
Career Shift Academy is the exact framework I wish I had back then, and I created it to make sure you don’t have to do this alone.

and my husband looks at me and he goes, wow, you seem normal now. And I was like, Okay. I was like, well, I feel like a normal person should feel, I guess. I just feel like my whole mental health, physical health, everything has been upgraded."

"It was about the first or second week at my new job,
and unsure about the future. Every day, I questioned how I was going to make it through the school year. But, I also realized that complaining about how much I disliked being a teacher was not going to solve the problem, and I knew I needed to do SOMETHING about it."
