Have you been leaning into making a career shift, but not sure what is right for you? Today’s guest shares a glimpse of possibilities you may not have considered and why you need to make the leap!
In this episode, Ali and JoDee sit down with Kate Davis, a veteran educator of over 15 years. Together they’ll discuss Kate’s shift from teacher to librarian, the life of an educator teaching abroad, and the large variety of career possibilities as librarian.
You’ll hear more about:
- Challenges Kate faced when coming back to the U.S. as an educator
- Why teachers make great librarians
- The evolving role of librarians in modern communities
- How to get started in a field you might be interested in (and why you might not need a degree to do it!)
- Career advice for burnt-out teachers and those seeking change
