Summary
In this episode of the Pretty Rich Teacher Podcast, we’re getting real about corporate layoffs, job safety, and the government shutdown — and what all of this actually means for transitioning teachers. If you’ve been scared to leave teaching because you think corporate isn’t “stable,” this is the episode you needed yesterday. You’ll walk away with: The truth about layoffs in BOTH education and corporate (and why neither path is as “safe” as teachers think). Why transitioning educators are more employable than they realize when they learn how to articulate their value. How to build six-figure skills that make you career-proof, layoff-proof, and recession-proof. The mindset shift that instantly reduces fear around job stability and replaces it with strategy. How to think about promotions, growth, and advancement from Day 1 in your corporate role. The power of continuous learning, reinvention, and believing in your ability to pivot at any time. This episode will help you stop waiting for job safety to be “given” to you — and instead learn how to create it for yourself.
