## Resource

If you're a teacher who knows you cannot stay in the classroom forever but also does not want to gamble your future, this episode is for you. In Episode 66, I sit down with Carla C. Whyte, a transitioned teacher who did not wait for permission, luck, or a perfect roadmap. She made a clear decision and built her corporate transition step by step. Carla shares what it actually looked like to leave education, how she reframed her experience, and the internal shifts required to show up confidently in a completely new world. This conversation is honest about the work. The mindset shifts. The patience. And the strategy it takes to move from teaching into corporate without losing yourself along the way. When you listen to this episode, you’ll walk away with: Belief that teachers really do belong in corporate roles Clarity on why strategy matters more than motivation A grounded understanding of how confidence shows up in interviews Permission to stop underselling your experience A realistic picture of what the job search process requires Reassurance that taking your time does not mean you are behind Validation that your skills translate, even if the language is different A calmer, more intentional way to think about your next move This is not about rushing your exit.
