The Journey to a Life of Freedom as a Te...

About this episode
The path to freedom as a teacher and teacher success is not one size fits all.

Teachers Need a Vision Beyond the Classroom. It's crucial to remember that a fulfilling life extends beyond the school walls. We continue to show you how your experience, passion, and knowledge can lead the way to teacher success. 

Whether your passion is book writing, copywriting, website design, leading a team, or even turning all of the resources you already created into a membership, course, or micro-school, or showing others how to do it too. In this episode, I am breaking down the 1-2-3 for creating a life of teacher freedom, beyond what you thought it could be.

In this episode, you will learn:

  • How the comfort trap is not doing us any favors.
  • The sacrificial mindset is affecting our own personal and professional aspirations.
  • Limited financial growth is part of a teaching salary structure.
  • The illusion of classroom security may not provide the flexibility and control you are looking for
  • The lack of innovation can lead to a sense of stagnation.
