From Classroom to CopywriterHere’s the thing, [FIRST NAME GOES HERE]: Sometimes milestones sneak up on you. You don’t notice them coming because you’re so deep in the day-to-day grind — deadlines, kid drop-offs, laundry piles, zoom meetings. And then BAM 💥 you look up and realize… you’ve actually circled back to one of the things that once felt completely out of reach. I had one of those milestone moments this week when I was a guest on The Copywriter’s Club podcast with Rob Marsh. This was one of the voices in my ears as a teacher who wanted OUT. Like, “if I can just figure out what these people are doing, maybe there’s a way for me too.”
And now? I was on it. Here’s what we talked about…
It was surreal. It was affirming. It was one of those moments that made me think: Oh, all those nights I spent googling ‘how to get clients’ after negotiating my daughter into bed and staring down the pile of unpaid work I still had to do weren’t wasted. They brought me here. And if you’re in the middle of that transition right now — whether it’s from the classroom, or from one career into another — I just want to remind you: those podcasts you’re listening to, those notes you’re scribbling, those late-night dreams you don’t tell anyone about yet? They matter, [FIRST NAME GOES HERE]. They stack up. They’re your breadcrumb trail. This week, I got to walk all the way back to where mine started and wave at my younger self.
And honestly? It was pretty damn cool. Interested in listening to the pod? You can check it out here, or below:
