  • Overcoming the Anxiety of 'What's Next?'
    2025/07/01

    “I just knew that I had to make that change.”

    In a supportive school but with her own changing priorities, Primary and Early Years Teacher Georgia was tired of missing out on quality family time and feeling exhausted by the demands of teaching. Leaning into her subject specialism as R.E. Curriculum Lead, she’s found her “dream role” as a Regional Advisor for an education group, providing curriculum programmes and specialist support to schools.

    Now working remotely, Georgia enjoys increased flexibility and a change of pace, time for herself alongside passion for her subject, lunchtime walks and getting to drink a cup of tea whilst it’s still hot! She’s also built her business, Georgia Alice VA, through our Teacher to VA Startup Success programme and is looking forward to balancing freelance work with her part-time role.

    In this episode, we also cover:

    • Weighing up your reasons for leaving
    • The anxiety of ‘what’s next?’
    • Investing in yourself
    • Valuable early support, including off-sick cuppas
    • Visualising the future you want
    • Applying for competitive roles
    • ‘Refreshing’ interview experiences
    • Onboarding in a new role
    • Getting used to a less busy calendar
    • Top tips for subject specialist roles
    • Timescales for getting out of teaching

  • From Tough Decisions to Freelance Freedom
    2025/06/24

    “It’s okay to prioritise yourself sometimes.”

    Passionate about supporting emotional wellbeing in both children and adults, Katie was an experienced Headteacher who cared deeply about her students and staff. After realising that she was “giving too much of myself to my school and not enough of myself to my family”, she began to re-evaluate her career direction.

    Now working freelance as an Associate Education Consultant with For The Child, alongside training to be a seasonal yoga teacher and exploring other exciting pursuits, Katie values the time that she took at the start of her career change journey to understand exactly what she wanted. With more time freedom and flexibility, she now enjoys voluntary roles, swimming with her children, riding horses again … and has even signed up to the London Marathon!

    In this episode, we also chat about:

    • Experiencing fear at the start of the journey
    • Taking time to make a decision
    • Using tools and resources to explore next steps
    • Applying for the right roles
    • Putting yourself last as a teacher
    • Having an impact in a new way
    • Allowing space for ‘not knowing’
    • Building relationships and collaborating with others
    • Skills that translate from school to business
    • Liberation in not living by school terms
