#189: Not Every School Deserves You (Let's Talk About It)

Not every school deserves you.

And once you understand that…

Your entire job search changes.

In this episode, we’re talking about:

• Why teachers feel pressure to fit in everywhere

• How people-pleasing leads to burnout and misalignment

• The difference between rejection and redirection

• What aligned schools actually feel like

• The identity shift from “please pick me” → “I choose what aligns”

This is the episode that gives you permission to stop chasing.

And start trusting that the right fit exists.
