Feeling this one personally! Guilty of thinking any career change would be me totally starting over and that is so overwhelming. No matter what you used to do and are looking to do in the future, you are starting with something. New things are new, and everyone has a learning curve, but I need to stop looking at it as ‘from scratch’.
This is such a refreshing take! So many people feel like they’re “starting over” when they pivot careers, but really, they’re just building on what they already know. Every skill and experience still counts. This has been especially true in my transition from teaching to instructional design (I actually feel like I have a huge leg up on others who haven't taught before)

Do it! Take the mm leap🙏🤞👌
That's a great take. I think it's important to keep this in mind for anyone considering leaving their job or teaching altogether. Our career trajectories look a lot different now than they did 20 years ago.
This offers a nice way to look at changing jobs, but does the pay scale reflect your experience? Do the people in your new job appreciate what you bring to the table or see you as beneath them? The culture of the new workplace has to be right in order to make this perspective a reality.
