Listen Later

Have you ever experienced that internal tug, wondering if it's time to move on from the classroom? If you have, it doesn't mean you're a bad teacher or that you are giving up. In fact, many educators find themselves wrestling with these thoughts. In this episode, we provide a space to explore this decision free of guilt, helping you reflect, gain clarity, and discover what opportunities are available when considering a career outside the traditional classroom.

Kayla from Teacher Transition is joining me to shed light on what the journey of transitioning to a career outside of the classroom may look like. She discusses the signs that may signal it's time for a change, how to identify transferable skills, and the wide range of roles where these skills can be utilized. We're looking at how to reframe your experiences and skill set in a way that opens new opportunities without losing the heart that makes you a teacher. If you have been feeling that nudge to look into options outside the classroom, this episode is for you!
