The Summer You Built
Your Exit Plan in 4 Weeks

go from teacher to virtual assistant

Back to Main Site

ready isn't a feeling. it's a decision.

Let's break the cycle, babe

You've Googled "careers for former teachers" more times than you'd like to admit. You've scrolled past everyone and their sister swearing they made $50k in a month online. You've quietly checked things out, but never actually committed.

You've Been Thinking About Your Next Chapter for a While...

A pyramid scheme/MLM

A get-rich-quick type of thing

Virtual Assistance was practically built for teachers. It takes the skills you already use every single day and turns them into a real, working business (and real income). 

This is the career that actually works.

What this isn't

A "make $50k in your first month" promise

What this is

A way to get paid for the skills you already have

Your own business, built your way

 A career you can run from your couch 

A career that doesn't require you to quit teaching cold turkey

nothing changes if nothing changes

I made the jump because I finally realized...

I went from Teacher of the Year
to walking out mid-year

My Journey out of teaching

Teaching was my childhood dream.

I wanted to be the teacher who made learning fun, who made students feel seen, who made a real impact. I knew it would be hard. I didn't expect it to slowly take over my entire life.

By year six, I was exhausted. I wasn't teaching — I was planning, grading, and trying to recover enough energy to do it all again. I felt parts of myself disappear. I started looking for a way out. Nothing felt right — until I found Virtual Assistance.

For the first time, I found work that gave me freedom, balance, and income that reflected my skill set. It changed my life. And now I help other burnt-out teachers build their own exit.


Say no more, save my seat!

The EE Summer Cohort is the most hands-on, accelerated version of Educator's Exit I've ever offered.

For 4 weeks, you'll move through the program with me,  EE graduates turned mentors, and 24 other burnt-out teachers building their exit plans right alongside you.

It's more live coaching than I've ever offered. A private Slack open Monday through Friday. Weekly goals to keep you moving.

Limited seats.
This summer only.
After that... it's gone until summer 2027.

YOUR COHORT COACHING TEAM

Hey friend, I'm Rachel! I walked away from teaching mid-year in 2022 and built a Virtual Assistant business that gave me my life back. Since then, I've helped hundreds of burnt-out teachers do the same — and the EE Summer Cohort is the most hands-on version of that work I've ever offered. I'll be in every cohort, every Slack thread, every Q&A — making sure you never feel like you're doing this alone.

YOUR Q'S, MY A'S

LET'S CLEAR THINGS UP

What are the dates for the cohort + coaching calls?

What are the dates for the cohort + coaching calls?

The June Cohort kicks off the week of June 1st and wraps up June 26th. Our live Q&A coaching calls happen every Wednesday at 1:00pm EST — and don't stress if you can't make them live, every call gets recorded and posted in the Slack within 24 hours.

How is this different from the original Educator's Exit?

How is this different from the original Educator's Exit?

They're really two different vibes for two different teachers.

The OG Educator's Exit is the spaced-out version. You get 6 months inside the community + support, so you can take your time, breathe, and build at your own pace. It's perfect for teachers who have a slower runway and want to ease into it.

The Summer Cohort is the let's go version. It's more personal, community-driven, and accelerated — you're going through the entire program in 4 weeks alongside 24 other burnt-out teachers, with weekly coaching calls and direct access to 4 EE graduate mentors who've already built thriving VA businesses.

Same content. Different pace. Pick the one that fits the season you're in.

What if I can't make the live coaching calls?

What if I can't make the live coaching calls?

Sis, I got you. All Q&A calls are recorded and posted in the Slack within 24 hours. You can watch the replay AND still drop your questions in the channel — your mentor will hop in and answer ASAP. Nobody falls behind in this cohort.

What happens after the 4 weeks are up?

What happens after the 4 weeks are up?

First of all — you celebrate. You did the thing. Then you keep going, because you'll have lifetime access to the full EE course AND a HUGE discount on our 6-Month Community + Support Pass to keep that same support system rolling long after week 4 wraps.

You're not done after week 4. Friend, you're literally just getting started.

Do I have to quit teaching by the end of the summer to do this?

Do I have to quit teaching by the end of the summer to do this?

Absolutely not. Most of the women in EE build their VA business while they're still teaching — and decide on their OWN timeline if (and when) they want to leave the classroom.

Some leave by the end of the school year. Some build it on the side for a couple years before they walk away. Some never leave teaching at all and use the income as supplemental.

The whole point of this cohort is to give you OPTIONS — not to make you choose. You're building the door, friend. You get to decide if and when you walk through it.


What's your refund policy?

What's your refund policy?

This one's important: all sales are final. The minute you join, you get full access to the entire EE course, the Slack community, and all the cohort materials — which means refunds aren't something we're able to offer. If you're feeling unsure or have questions before saving your seat, please reach out. I'd love to help you figure out if this is the right fit.

Let's do this.

nothing changes if nothing changes

There won't be a "perfect time."
There won't be a year you suddenly have it all figured out.
There won't be a moment where the fear goes away.

But there is THIS summer. There are 25 seats. There is our coaching team.
A clear roadmap. A community full of women doing this alongside of you.

Being Ready Ins't a Feeling,
It's a Decision.

this is your time, sis
