Almost a year ago, my entire life changed in a way I never expected. Leaving my teaching position after 17 years was one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever made, and the circumstances surrounding it were incredibly painful. At the time, I had no idea what the next chapter would look like. Now, we’re just weeks away from finishing our own preschool studio on our property. There are still a lot of emotions tied to how I got here, but I’m so excited to see what comes next.
