QUOTEABLES
“When that started to happen, I knew I needed to make a change, and it doesn’t necessarily mean a forever change. It can feel so scary leaving the classroom because it feels so final and like that’s the end of the story. It just means it’s a new chapter right now and I am exploring something different right now. I’m home with my kids, and you know, I’ll figure out the rest as I go.”
