I’m a firm believer in that there is always a reason when God moves us away from something we love, He moves us to something better. Maybe there’s a greater blessing ahead of you, or something new to learn that He needs you to use later. We will only know when you can look back down the road you’ve traveled. My prayers are with you in this time of transition and into new blessings. 🙏
I’m a retired sped teacher, and I was hit with reduction in force. I understand that it feels like the bottom has fallen out of the elevator. For me, I had been in the administration office for 20 years, and when that job was eliminated, I went back to the classroom for the last 3 years before I retired. Take heart, I know you will shine wherever you go next!
It takes a toll on one and one feel depressed and sad
Thank you for being brave enough to share your struggles with anxiety and your job loss. One important thing I have learned is that we are all teachers for each other. So, we are all constantly teaching and learning from each other. Some people, like you, are natural teachers so whatever you are doing your soul will find a way to teach others. You will always teach your own children and those of us on UA-cam. Who knows what other wonderful things you will find to do? This could be your greatest opportunity! ❤💜💙💚
Peace and Blessings
I would like to say a BIG THANK YOU for being the loving and caring person/teacher that you are! Those kids will always have a special place in thier hearts and truely remember you! I am sorry to hear that you do not want to go back into the classroom but I really understand. Just remember when God closes one door he will always open another...God bless you on your new journey! Love and prayers!💚
😭😭😭😭
Cait, I am sending you a virtual hug right now. I feel like I can relate to some of these feelings a lot. In April of 2020 when the pandemic really started kicking up, I was laid off and it was so devastating. It was hard... so emotional. I can't imagine how much more emotional it would be to have to say goodbye to students that I had a bond with and that I cared for. I really hope that your path opens up, and that you are able to figure out what to do and that you have lots of happiness and success with it. :)
I understand how this feels. I was bullied from an ISD a few year back and just this January a private preschool I was working for Chose to close. They made the decision while I was away for holiday and I had no clue. It really hurt me financially to find out I’d be out of a job in two weeks after being gone on a two week long trip. I still have secured a new job since January 2022 but I’m still very hopeful a new one will be coming soon. I did however start graduate school in the mist of this mess.
I love all those stickers. I really enjoy your journaling video. Full support now. Lovelots. 😍💕
Hi treasure, my husband is a teacher and due to my deteriorating health in December 2019 he had to leave because I needed a carer at home to help me. My health hit a desperate low. Anyways he joined “ Tutor Hunt” an online teaching agency. Well he has plentiful work and he sets his own timetable and charges what he decides. He has to turn work away . He loves his students and really enjoys those ways of developing that relationship with the students. I hear him laughing with them and cheering them on it’s so good knowing he’s so happy even though he had to leave a job he loved. I know with your big heart and amazing skills whatever you choose you will make a happy work life that’s fulfilling . Xxx
I am currently a special education coordinator, but 7 years ago I also was let go from a teaching job - it felt terrible - but I can honestly say that it opened the way to a MUCH better position, where I could grow and be promoted - and I am grateful now that it happened. There is a great need for good teachers out there -trust there will be something for you..
Oh I am crying!! I’m also an Enneagram 2 and can feel how badly this is hurting you. I’m praying for you and your students that y’all will get through this and lift y’all up as you go through this transition.
So sorry to hear about you job! There is nothing more adventurous than shaking up your comfort zone! Many 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 your way. I do love your take us along with you when you go to Micheals, Hobby Lobby & Joann’s. I ❤️ your videos!
So sorry this happened. I wonder if this will be the trend - getting rid of teachers. I’m very concerned about the education of this generation. Prayers.
So very sorry for the news. I've been there. Too long of a story about me. Don't throw in the towel and stay up !!! Praying for you!!!
So sorry.
Hello. I am sorry this has happened to you. As someone who worked in HR processing unemployment claims prior to Covid I would like to offer my opinion. You should apply for unemployment it shouldn't have anything to do with your social media income. Your employer has already paid into unemployment. Unless your state has some restrictions unemployment approval is not determined by additional income , its determined on how your employment ended. In your case its no fault of your own. Please try don't be afraid all they can say is no, but I highly doubt they will. Just because you accepted a severance package it may delay the unemployment payout, but not deny it. If they say no you always have they option to appeal. Anyone else with HR experience please chime in!
So sorry to hear. Has happened to me too many times. But you’ll land on your feet, better than before.
Oh! I am so sorry that you have to go through this HUGE change. Try to keep this positive attitude. We are all out here pulling for you!! ❤
Losing a job is always ruff no matter your position. Especially when you been there for several years. You do become like family. I am looking to your live shopping blog. You got this. Remember take it one day at time. Looking forward to many more videos.
Sorry for the news. Prayers for nothing but the best from here on out. You deserve more appreciation as a teacher. All will be well.
A reduction in force (RIF) of 40 employees is a significant event. In most schools, the most costly area is personnel (vs transportation, foods, materials, etc) - it sounds like your employer is in a financial crisis whether the enrollment numbers are down or not. Change is hard but even more so when it's forced upon us rather than by our choice... It's so hard to keep your emotions out of your upcoming decisions but try to take lots of 'thinking time' before you make any big decisions. Your students will remember your actions and attitude over the next few months so look at it as another 'teachable moment' for being a resilient, functional, purposeful, caring, empathetic human. Will be keeping you in my thoughts and sending you lots of positive vibes!
I watched this and forgot to leave a comment. I am so sorry for what you are going through with your job loss. It is evident in how you talk about your school and student how much you love your job. I am sending you all my love and good energy.
From one teacher to another, I am so sorry for your situation. I know how devastated you feel. Everytime something happened that I didn't want to happen in my teaching career, it always led to better things. Trust the process.
Caitlyn, praying that your knowledge, skills, and abilities will take you to your next journey swiftly and that you not lose anything during this time of transition. Praying that your knowledge will take you so far that this moment becomes a distant memory. You will be ok young lady, you will definitely be ok. Blessings to you.
I got choked up just listening to the way you talk about your students, and you are handling this situation with such grace. Your kiddos have been blessed to have you and I know wherever you land next will be equally blessed. Sending you all the love and hugs and well wishes.
I'm so sorry to hear this. Take this time to process everything. Be with your family and friends. Sending you strength during this time.
I retired and missed the kids! I started tutoring and during the height of the pandemic I did it virtually! That might be an option for you! I love hearing about your heart for kids. ❤️
So sorry to hear this! Prayers for you during this rough time
I am so sorry to hear that you are going through this. I was told growing up that everything happens for a reason and we may not like it but there is always a reason. I love watching you and can see all the love you have for everyone. Take this as a time of growing for you and to find new ways to fill up your bucket so you are ready for what is coming your way.
Hugs and prayers as you navigate this difficult time. The right door will be the perfect new season for you and your family
Awww. I'm so sorry to hear this, but know that you will land firmly on your feet right where you are needed !! ((however, you know kiddos ... eventhough you've warned your students not to watch this video or to skip parts ... I think that your title already told them everything.. Yikes!) Wishing you all the best !!
I'm so hopeful for you and the opportunities that will come in the future and I'm so sorry that you are going through this. It's so tough when life forces things upon us that we would have never opted for to begin with.
Educators who work with middle schoolers are a breed apart. Wishing you the best 🌈
Everything happens for a reason. Even whenever things are devastating always keep a mind set that something better is coming, and yes the hardest part is having to leave all those tiny familiar faces.
Aw, I'm sorry to hear that Caitlin. Hopefully you've got excellent representation and will get a decent redundancy package. I'm sure whatever you do next will be awesome and hopefully you can take a little comfort in the good times and the kids you got to know and nurture.
So sorry to hear about your job .
You got this! New Journey coming!
Oh no. I'm so sorry to hear about your job, especially since you are so sincere and passionate about your students. I hope that this will lead you to more exciting opportunities and time to explore other passions! Take care and take some time to breathe.
Hang in there. Change can be hard but it also can be good! Thinking of you❤️!!!
Sending you lots of love 💕 I truly believe everything happens the way it is meant to, there is bigger and better things waiting for you! Xx
You are a strong lady, you will find your best path.x
i have a friend who was a teacher and was let go also she became a tutoring on line teacher to help kids with their homework that might be an option
Sending good vibes. I can relate about building something you have to turn over. I went through this when I retired. I gave my employer a 12 month notice in hopes to get them to find an adequate replacement. That did not happen. They hired someone while I was on a 3 week vacation where I came back and worked through the holidays (Christmas/New Years) and then retired. I had about 9 days to “train” them. Just know when one path ends you are meant for better things. Our paths are filled with challenges and it is our responsibility to embrace and grow. Good luck with the road ahead!
So sorry about your job! Sending hugs and best wishes ❤
You are super strong and super smart! You will get through this! Thinking of you ♥️
🥲🥲I’m sorry to hear this. Especially during these unknowing times. I can feel your love for your students. I do hope you find something better in the future.
I'm so sorry to hear this!
I am so sorry to hear about your job. In 2001 I was part part of the very first Dell Computer "Reduction in Force". 20+ years later it still stings. Please process this as a loss and give yourself permission to grieve. Know that even though you don't feel it, you are stronger than you feel.
Caitlin as I said on your community tab, I have been right where you are and it is very scary, and as a person with anxiety and control issues not knowing is tough as well! I hope and pray that you will know exactly what the right thing for you when the time comes to make that decision. I will definitely support in any way I can.
Oh I'm sorry to hear about this. I met you at GoWild briefly and I wish we had the chance to talk more. I'm going through something similar, but I'm taking this time to reinvent myself. Thank you for sharing your story with us.
Oh sweet dear! I completely feel and hear your pain in your voice! I am so very sorry you are going through this! I have been at those cross roads regarding developing programs for youth and girls just to hand over due to unforseen circumstances. I will definitely pray for you for wisdom and discernment about your next steps and journey. I know you will shine bright whatever you decide. Your community supports and loves you!! Please try to keep your head up and continue to inspire! Blessings sweet one!❤
I'm so sorry. I know that has to be tough. But everything will work out. God will lead you where you are meant to be. I am happy that you got to experience GO Wild this year. Sounds like it is a amazing experience! Big hugs your way 🤗
You are so precious!!! You will be in my thoughts!
Sorry about your job! I’m a firm believer in everything happens for a reason and when one door closes, another door opens. My niece is a college math professor and is facing a similar situation due to declining enrollment. Stay strong! ❤️
Just keep true to you and I’m sure it will all be good in the end. This sounds incredibly scary but I hope it’s only a chance to find a better road. Im glad you at least have some time to figure out your next step.
I’m so sorry to hear this news!!!
I once too had my position cut/dissolved. It was a job I had worked hard towards, I had interviewed twice for and was thoroughly enjoying. While I was offered another position with the company, getting knocked back down a rung sucked. No other way to say it. Hugs to you during this difficult time. Seek all the possibilities this heartbreak gives you.
Hugs and prayers
Thank you for sharing your videos
Losing a job, especially one you love, can be devastating. I've been there and it's hard to walk away from the relationships you've formed.I pray that you find a new position soon & that the transition is smooth. 💜
Girl, I'm so very sorry you lost your job. I can tell you are a great teacher and really care about your students. I just hopped over to Patreon and joined. I wish I could do more. You will probably find a better job. You're an awesome person and I really enjoy your vlogs so much. I will include you in my prayers tonight cyber hug!
Sooooo excited a shop with me live !
I feel your pain. I am a teacher and I understand the ebb and flow of registration. Good luck to you. ❤️
Girl, your so not alone. I had to leave after 17 yrs of service over $2.00. But we just have to embrace the opportunity to move on to bigger and better. A good teacher is an asset and I’m sure will be grabbed up quickly. Or who knows maybe you’ll go another avenue. Sending hugs and hope.
I'm so sorry to hear this. Change is hard, especially when it's not our decision. My gram use to say (I don't believe it was original to her) " when 1 door closes, another opens". I firmly believe that you are bound for bigger and better things. Looking forward to seeing more of you here.
Oh man, seeing you switch out your cover really makes me want to update mine! That is such a cute cover! I did not do a green spread because I totally forgot.
I'm sorry to hear this....I know how it feels since 5 years ago I had to resign from a 10 years job that I loved and for which I gave so much....it has been a really tough period and I still suffer when I think of it. I'm sure you'll find a wonderful new job soon ❤❤
Sorry to hear this. My aunts have taught school over 28 years. Teaching is umm a great thing but the systems in which they work aren’t. I would say do something that is going to make you happy in the long term for you and your kids. You are a awesome content creator and the options you mentioned are really good also.
Prayers . I am sorry girl .
The same thing happened to me recently! I’m on maternity leave and they gave me a call to tell me I no longer had a job when I return. I was devastated at first but I’m (trying) to see this as an opportunity for something positive to happen. It’s hard to do that and this whole thing sucks. I’m so sorry this is happening to you cause I know exactly how devastating it truly is.
Wow so crazy that happened to me while on maternity leave except they didn't call me to let me know so i returned to work only to be laid off within 15 minutes. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise. I was able to stay home with my newborn for over a year which was heaven for me. My job didn't (and couldn't) fight my unemployment claim.
@@camille8098 isn’t it just awesome how companies treat pregnant women or women who decide to have children? (not!) I’m in Canada so rules are a little different - we have 12-18 mo paid mat leave but my employer used a loophole where if they restructure they don’t owe me anything. No severance. No termination pay. Nothing. So I just have to believe something better is on the horizon. Not going back to a job is very daunting so I’m sympathize with anyone who has had to go through this before.
@Liss this is normal everyday practice in most of the US, regardless of pregnancy or any other situation. Every state I’ve lived in can fire you at any time, for any reason, no severance, no warning, no nothing. It’s happened to me numerous times through no fault of my own. This is partly why there’s a growing anti-workforce in this country…
Wow, this is a tough situation! Im so sorry for your loss and will add you to my “job” prayer list! I have been a teacher in Texas at 3 different schools ( in my past) each school i had to leave was because of my husbands jobs moving us. The first year after you are gone is the roughest, because if your kids can reach out they will tell you about how things are not going well, even if they are in loving and capable hands. When you build a program and a family i is so hard to hear things arent well ( im sure it would be equally as hard to hear we love her more. Lol). Now with facebook i have reconnected with so many of my past kids and i get to be a blast from the past, best memories kind of stuff. But going thru the loss of those kids will be tough, dont let anyone tell you differently. I will be praying for you about that too. Being a planner makes the unknown difficult, what do you write on your calendar? But I cant wait to hear about the next great thing and choosing your own kids first is the best choice. You are such a positive and infectious person, Im sure you have opportunities coming. Keep the faith.
I’m so sorry about losing your job. The same thing happened to me after being with my employer for 17 years. I know how it feels. I’m so much happier now. I have faith that you will do the same.
So sorry to hear about your job. I'm a retired teacher. We definitely have one of the most difficult jobs and also one of the most rewarding. I wish you well. Take time for you and I hope at some point this situation can be seen as an opportunity. ❤😊
I have done a green spread for St. Patrick's day.💚🍀
I'm sorry such big things are changing for you. It really does mean something better is waiting for you. I was teaching and then there was a change in leadership and the pay for education in Indiana is minimal. I was asked to put in my resignation.
I'm so sorry that this happened to you. The way it was done is NOT okay.
I feel you, I've had to change my jobs multiple times as a social worker and the fear is huge.
God's timing. All will work out the way it is supposed to be. 😊
I’m sorry to hear about your job. I think this is the first video of yours I’ve seen. I subscribed and I will check your patreon tiers and when able I will jump on one. Good luck, I do love this video and your energy you give off.
So sorry to hear about your being RIF'ed. It is devastating. I left teaching almost 3 years ago and now work at a curriculum non-profit. Best decision I ever made.
If anxiety is an issue I would recommend pursuing another teaching job (remote) in the shorter term. It provides the most stability and least anxiety.
I would also still use the summer to ramp up your social media as if you weren't returning to the classroom. That will give you a touchpoint on the potential of making it a FT endeavor in the future.
I wanted to add that I was an elementary teacher and now I work in community college in testing, much better fit for me... you will find a perfect place for you too
God will not give you trials you can't handel. Spend the time to love on your family! You are so great and will land a new job. I knew you were a teacher when I watched your first video.
Sorry to hear about this... but it sounds like you can explore options 2 and 3 at the same time! I know it's hard to choose to take that leap but a silver lining to this situation is that you don't have to CHOOSE to walk away from something first. Good luck! 🍀
I'm sorry to hear this. I would recommend getting active on Linkedin if you aren't already. I left higher education and I know a lot of teachers are transitioning to other careers. There are SO many resources out there for free. I moved from higher ed administration and teaching to instructional design with a bit of technical writing. It is possible and it is a journey. You'll be ok. One day at a time.
As someone who works at a staffing agency, I 100% agree about jumping on to LinkedIn and getting active as you can, I have gotten 2/3 of all my full time jobs from LinkedIn and a recruiter reaching out and 100% of my freelance jobs from it, I highly recommend using it for your advantage
Beautiful spread
Hi Caitlin. It has been sometime since I have watched a video of yours but, I’m so sorry to find out that you had lost your teaching job. You really are being a strong person and I surly do admire y u for it too. But, by hearing you talk about how things came about I feel that they (the bosses) were thinking for sometime on how to get rid of you and give your students to someone else. That is total crap in my opinion. I’m sure you are an awesome teacher too and that you had an awesome relationship with your students too. So, whatever you decide I’m sure will be something that will definitely bring you joy and peace too. God bless and hugs to you always. Keep strong and the faith too. Love, Sue(Clearwater, Florida)❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌸😘😊🤟🏻🦋❌⭕️❌⭕️
I would be a nervous wreck due to the unknown. Somethings we know is 1) you are so talented 2) you have the best vibes 3) you are the hardest worker. I’m subscribed to your Patreon. ❤️❤️❤️
Just joined your Patreon…. You got this!
💕💕🙏🙏 You were made for great things. 🙏🙏💕💕
Changing jobs is always hard no matter how it happens. I will keep you in my prayers. Love the spread! Do you know if they are ever make a sticker sheet that fit the boxes for the dashboard?
Sending you ❤️, friend.
I found out about 2 weeks ago that I also am being let go from my teaching position. It was a shock and I was devastated and my colleagues and I were tight knit, they are all struggling with my school boards decision.
❤️❤️❤️
This is so sad. You have talked a lot about how much you loved your job!
Social work is always an option! I am a social worker and teach part time. It's nice.
I’m so sorry. Teach Chinese children how to speak English. It’s an online job. I know lots of Teachers that do this as additional income. You really have a positive outlook.
I’m a high school teacher in a public school, and I have to say… if I could, I’d retire this year. Same as you- I love my kids and teaching, but the profession has become so ridden with bureaucracy and frustration and so many stupid ideas made by people who seem to have never met a teenager, let alone been in a classroom. So many kids damaged by “amateur “ distance learning. I’m one of the amateurs, unlike teachers like you who know how to do it right. It’s really hard to find the joy teaching used to bring. But with your attitude, you’ll land on your feet with something better than before!
I agree with all u have said. That's why, after 30 years in the elementary classroom who has served in Title I schools in Atlanta for my entire career, I am officially retiring this June. The last 3 years of teaching has sucked the life out of me. 😩
C'mon stickers 🤣
Where did the pen holder come from
Omg. I accidentally hit dislike, I didn’t mean it and have changed it but I don’t want you to get that feedback :(. I’m so sorry that you’re going through all of this. ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful sticker book, I love the colors did I miss the name? Sage?
God makes no mistakes, where one door closes... well you know. I know that these sayings aren't really helpful, they are just true! How about offering tutoring as well as building your channel? So many kids need extra help and someone to connect with. I hope that you can look at this as an opportunity to move forward into the new things God has planned for you! Light & love!
