Leaving Teaching for My Dream Life: My Journey Begins

[@elliebashaw4370]

Hi Mrs. Thurston! You were one of best teachers i’ve had (most definitely better than my college professors nowadays). The kids you taught are so lucky to have had you, including myself. I know you’ll be missed but i’m sure we are all excited to see where else the world takes you!

Oh wow! Ellie, it's so great to hear from you! It's so exciting to hear about you in college. Your class was a very memorable one and we had such a fun time together in second grade. Thanks so much for all YOU taught me! 💛

Oh, I love this video! You’ve had such a profound impact on the lives of so many children. Now it’s your time to go deeper into your creativity, passions and dreams. I’m here for all of it and support you 1000%!

Thanks so much...for everything!!! Teaching has been incredibly rewarding and I'm leaving the door ajar, so to speak. It's time to bet on myself and to take the leap into my creativity. Your support means the world to me. 🥰

As a retired elementary school teacher, I can relate to everything in this video. I especially relate to you being unsure about whether you’ll go back to teaching as well. I felt guilty about retiring, because there are so many children who need caring teachers. Good luck on your endeavors!

Gosh I know exactly how you feel and those relationships with our students are incredible. It’s so hard to step away but I’m so excited to see what I can accomplish in this next chapter. Thanks for your kind words! ❤️

Thanks so much, Arlene! One things this difficult year has taught me is LIFE IS SHORT! Sometimes you just have to go for it. ❤

You will truly be missed! I wish you the best on your journey have the best time exploring what’s to come 😊

[@LindsayLiving]

Thank you! It's terrifying and exhilarating all at the same time so I take that as a sign that I'm on the right path. I can't wait to see what I can build in a year. Thanks so much for watching!

How exciting, congratulations! I wish you the best on your journey. I love your style and I can't wait to see all of your creations 😊

[@LindsayLiving]

Thank you so much! Your support means so much and I'm so excited to share my projects with you. 💛

[@LindsayLiving]

Leaving the classroom has been one of the hardest decisions of my life. I might be back next year, but I really need this year to explore. I'm so happy to have you here on this journey with me. Let's build stuff! What's on the horizon for you this summer?

Wow, Lindsay! I so admire you taking this leap to see what's possible for you on KZbin. I look forward to seeing more regular video content from you in the future. Hopefully with consistency will come a bigger audience that can support you full time. I too long for a creatively fulfilling career, but I've never been sure what kind of job or how to make it happen. I hope that this year will be one of growth and possibility with both of us pursuing our dreams!

[@LindsayLiving]

Thank you so much!! That means a lot. I've always been a pretty risk averse person so to take a big leap like this feels huge. So glad to have you along for the ride. I wish you all the luck in the world in your year of growth. It's sounds woo woo, but I'm ready to start manifesting and vision boarding my dreams. This is our year!
