4 Hours to Career Clarity -
Two virtual group sessions per cohort. Below are the dates for August:
August cohort:
Session 1 on 8/10 from 4-5:30pm (EST)
Session 2 on 8/17 from 4-5:30pm (EST)
Total live session time: 3 hours
Plus your personalized reflection guide between sessions (approximately 45-60 minutes to complete on your own time).
*If you can’t make one of the sessions or need to leave early for one, please see my response about recorded sessions in the FAQs below.
How It Works -
Session 1 — Get Unstuck (1.5 hours, virtual)
Name what you're actually feeling about teaching and where you are right now
Untangle who you are from what you teach
Work through reframes for the specific fears keeping teachers stuck
Start translating your teaching strengths into language the rest of the world understands
Between Sessions — Your Personalized Reflection & Support Mapping Your Next Steps (via email)
Complete a focused reflection guide and send it to me by 9pm EST on the Friday following our first session.
I'll review your responses and email you back by 9pm EST on the Monday before our second session.
My email will include possible next steps that match your needs and real-life constraints.
Of the next steps I give you, choose one that you want to share with the group.
Session 2 — Move Forward (1.5 hours, virtual)
Share the one step you'll commit to completing this summer with the group
Work with me and our cohort to name any barriers to completing this step
Leave with a concrete action, a deadline, and a plan to combat any barriers to making change that will inevitably show up.

YES! You can choose to pay through Klarna at checkout to divide up your payments in a way that works for your budget. I don’t want money to be a reason you’re holding back if this feels like the shift you need. If you want to talk through whether the investment makes sense for your situation, that's exactly what the free call is for.

Yes — actually, this intensive is built for exactly that. It's not about pushing you out of the classroom. It's about helping you get honest enough with yourself to know what you actually need. The point isn't the decision I want for you — it's the decision you can finally make with confidence instead of dread.
-
I created this program to include the community component and I would hate for you to miss out on that. However, I will be recording the sessions so if you can only attend one live session, we will figure it out to make it work for your schedule.

It's for you too. The intensive is designed for educators and school staff who are exhausted by the role but tangled up in the identity, the purpose, and the people they'd be leaving behind. Whether you're managing a caseload, running a classroom, or doing crisis response all day, the underlying work is the same: untangling who you are from what you do, and figuring out what actually fits.
-
That's a real outcome, and it's a good one. Some educators do this work and realize they don't need a new career — they need new boundaries, a different school, a different grade level, or a clearer sense of why they're staying. Choosing teaching is very different from feeling trapped in it. Either way, you leave with a better understanding of what fits you and why — that's the whole point.

Then let's talk! I offer a free 15-minute consultation if you’re considering the intensive — no pressure, no pitch, just a real conversation about where you are and whether this is the right next step for you. Go here to book a time
I built this intensive because I've been there.
I knew teaching wasn't right for me before I even finished my education degree — I just didn't know what was. I didn't know my options, and I didn't know what actually fit me. So I taught anyway.
And I was good at it. There were parts of teaching I genuinely loved. But the lifestyle and setting of a public school teacher didn't fit who I was. So every summer, I went looking. I didn't want something "teaching adjacent," so I did the real work: visiting graduate programs, asking people in other careers about their days, taking every personality and career-matching test I could find.
It wasn't until I worked with a therapist that something finally clicked. All those summers of digging had given me exactly what I needed — to know that becoming a licensed therapist was right for me.
Years later, in my own practice, I started helping other teachers through this same journey. And I realized I hadn't been the only one who felt alone in it — or who needed help pulling all that research together before it made sense.
Summer gives you room to breathe, think, and ask what else is out there. I want to guide you through it — using everything I learned and my skills as a therapist — so you leave one step closer to knowing what's next. And you won't be doing it alone.
If this sounds like you, join me this summer. I'd love to help you find the career that fits.
