even though it’s a choice i made and it’s what’s best for my family, it’s also so heartbreaking to have my last day today. ready to hold my baby in my arms, but i sure will miss being a teacher and loving on my school babies.🤍 this career is so hard, but fills my heart more than even i realize sometimes.

Only teared up twice 🥺❤️🩹
I said goodbye to teaching today, and nothing makes me more excited than getting to stay home with my boys (&girl)!
I dreamed of being a teacher since I can remember, but once I had kids it all changed. I’ve dreamt of the day I could be home with my kids. I’m so thankful my husband finds ways to support me in whatever my dreams are. I can’t wait for this next chapter!

A little life update 🫶🏻
I’d be lying if I said this hasn’t been a really difficulty decision. It consumed my maternity for months. Everything happens for a reason and what’s meant for you will never pass you by.
Teaching has been a big part of my life for 14 years. The students, the families and staff who kept in touch during my time off- I have loved every second and I never in a million years thought I’d leave this career. I just needed to be more present with my family 🫶🏻

how I quit my music teaching job for a corporate 9 to 5 🤍 #leavingteaching #leavingeducation #teacher #lifeafterteaching #corporategirlie #musiceducation
I wish I could hug her.
1. It’s going to be okay.
I know. It sounds dumb. And when you’re waking up every day dreading getting ready for work, “it’s going to be okay” is a lot easier to say than it is to believe. But I promise you, there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
2. If you want to stay, don’t feel like you have to leave. But if you want to leave, don’t feel like you have to stay.
I know it’s terrifying. You don’t know what you’re going to do next, and job searching is emotionally draining in a way you weren’t prepared for. But you’re allowed to leave. You don’t have to let other people guilt you into staying somewhere that isn’t serving you.
3. The shell of a human being you feel like you’ve become isn’t permanent.
You deserve hobbies. Happiness. Energy. The drive to take care of yourself and become the person you want to be again. It will slowly come back. There is nothing wrong with you. You’re exhausted.
4. Stop worrying that you’re “stuck” in the classroom.
You are capable of so much more than you realize. You have skills, experience, knowledge, and so much to offer outside of teaching. You will find your place.
5. You are not a failure for wanting to leave.
You worked incredibly hard to get where you are. Your education, your experiences, and everything you learned are still valuable. You’re allowed to grieve the career you thought would be your whole life and still choose to walk away from it.
If you read all of this, hi, I’m Ali. 🤍
I left the classroom earlier this year. It wasn’t an easy decision, but now I’m rebuilding my routines, figuring out who I am outside of teaching, and sharing my journey.
Follow along if you’re figuring it out too.

🍎 If I can make this change, any teacher can! Thanks for following along with my journey 🤍 #teacherquittok #leavingteaching #officemanager #officecoordinator #executiveassistant
And it's a wrap!
I say goodbye to teaching (for the foreseeable future) and to be honest, I feel a lot.
Mostly grateful for such a great teaching experience but also relieved that I don't have to split myself between work and my boy.
The excitement of moving abroad is slowly fizzling into nerves, but to new and better things iA! 🥂
