🍎 Apple Podcasts Description:

You’ve built a thriving childcare career, led incredible teams, and poured your heart into your community — but now, you’re starting to feel that tug for something different. You’re not burned out… you’re just not ready for the rocking chair yet.

In this inspiring episode, Erica Saccoccio explores what it looks like to step into a new season of purpose after years in early childhood education. Whether you’re considering retiring, selling your center, or simply shifting your focus, Erica breaks down how to pivot without losing your passion.

Discover fresh ways to stay connected to the field — from mentoring new educators and teaching at the college level to coaching, consulting, or even working in state licensing or advocacy. You’ll walk away with a renewed sense of hope that your legacy in ECE can continue, just in a new form.

Plus, hear Erica spill the real tea on what’s been happening in childcare tech — and why Jackrabbit Care is the partner you can trust when your current system lets you down. (They’re even buying lunch when you book your free demo — limited-time offer!)

Because let’s be honest — you didn’t come this far to fade quietly into the background. You’ve still got purpose, wisdom, and fire in your heart. You’re just ready to use it differently.

🎧 Press play and find out what your next chapter could look like — rocking chair not required.
