As many of you know or have seen in my profile I was a classroom teacher for 9 years. I loved what I did and loved helping kids learn and grow. Yet I felt there was more which is what caused me to look else where.
There are a lot of people in education currently that are looking for a transition, whether they’ve said it out loud or not (they feel overworked, underpaid, micromanaged). However, they think. like I did that they don’t have skills that translate to other industries, which is absurd.
Educators have a tremendous skill set. They understand people. They have to nurture relationships. They often have to provide a great experience by doing a lot with a little. They know how to motivate the unmotivated.
This Thursday we are doing a webinar about what it looks like to join Thrivent after a career in education. If you are or know someone in education that this fits sign up or pass this webinar along.

I spent 9 years in the classroom before I made a change. I know many in the education field are thinking about what would a change look like? What would it feel like, can I do something else? We need teachers and I don't want to take from that but teachers also deserve to be respected and compensated for their amazing skills. If your wondering about the options, Thrivent is growing and teachers make amazing advisors. We are doing a webinar about what the change looks like and feels like on 6/23 and 6/30.

This is to all those teachers out there. As the school year comes to an end sadly I know so many of you sit at a crossroads. Do I come back to the classroom or do I explore other options? I was there 9 years ago when I chose to leave the classroom. If you want to have a conversation I am here for you. If you want to explore opportunities at Thrivent or elsewhere I am here for the conversation and to be an ear as you make this choice.

Finally got these two pictures hung up in my office. Coaching has always been part of who I am. These two are coaches I grew up watching and wishing I could play for. Having them hang behind me is almost as cool. # TomKelly

My favorite driving snack!! Nothing better than a Twin Bing. If you have tried one I highly suggest it. If you have something better share away. I'm always taking recommendations.
