SIGN ME UP!
You feel overworked and undervalued in a profession you once loved and adored
You think that because you don't hear back from job applications, you're destined to stay in teaching forever
You feel guilty complaining about teaching even though you really are unhappy
You never created a plan outside of teaching since you always wanted to be a teacher
You're struggling to figure out IF leaving teaching is the best option for you & your family
You've considered leaving but don't know what to do without going back to school
My clients find themselves stuck in this frustrating spot all the time. Either they don’t have the energy to think about it, or they feel bad about considering leaving teaching because it has become such a large part of their identity. Or, when they do think they land on a decision, they change their mind the next day only realizing they are back to square one.
No, seriously, I’ve been exactly where you are.
You might be surprised to know I too could not decide if I really wanted to leave teaching. I was intimidated by moving into a new job that I didn’t feel qualified for (little did I know then how many skills teachers bring to the table). And if I’m honest, I wasted plenty of months going back and forth on if I wanted to leave teaching & what I would do next if I did leave.
So I spent countless hours applying to jobs, only to get denied then make the claim that I am meant to be a teacher forever since those jobs didn’t hire me. And let me tell you, I would have so much to tell my overwhelmed self if I could…
Luckily for me, I was able to make the choice that ended up feeling most aligned in a confident way because I could make space to lean in to things like - what I wanted my life to look, how much I wanted to make, and what kind of work could provide that work-life balance I craved.
ALL OF THIS TO SAY—I’ve been there. I was in year four of teaching (mind you I was convinced I’d be a teacher forever when entering the field), and I was miserable. I had challenging behaviors I wasn’t equip to handle, and my anxiety was at an ALL TIME HIGH. I felt so torn on if I should stay in teaching (and risk another year just like that one) or if I should change my career path completely.
That’s exactly why I created the Career Clarity Course designed just for teachers, so that educators like you could have confidence going into next steps. So instead of wasting months or years going back and forth, you can get clarity quicker and feel good about it!

If deciding to leave teaching or not is consuming your thoughts and keeping you from moving forward confidently, it's time to know for sure what your options are, and if it's something you want to pursue further. We should want to show up as our best selves each day in the environment that is best for us to grow in. Whether that is teaching or another career, I think it's time you feel good about knowing you're in the right space.
Am I right, or am I right?
