If you're a teacher who wants to leave the classroom but feels scared to start over, this episode is your reminder that you don't have to have it all figured out to take the next step.
In Episode 103 of the Pretty Rich Teacher Podcast, Jazmyne sits down with Jae, a former classroom teacher and new mom who landed her first EdTech account manager role in less than two months.
Jae shares how she approached her career transition, navigated multiple rounds of corporate interviews, and leaned on the support and resources available to her while learning a completely different hiring process. She also opens up about the mindset that helped her keep moving forward, even when she didn't know what would happen next.
Her story is a reminder that you don't have to wait until you're completely burned out to choose something different. You can love parts of teaching and still want more flexibility, more time with your family, and a career that better fits the life you're building.
When you listen to this episode, you’ll walk away with:
- A reminder that you can take action even when you're scared or uncertain about what comes next.
- A renewed appreciation for the skills and experience you already bring to a new career.
- The confidence to approach your career transition as a learning process instead of a test of your worth.
- Encouragement to build a career that gives you more room to be present for yourself and the people you love.
You don't have to feel completely ready before you begin. Sometimes, you just need the right support, a willingness to learn, and the courage to take the next step.
