In this episode of Unhappy Teacher, we sit down with a former teacher, academic coach, and now learning and development leader, Amberly Evans, Ph.D., as she shares her powerful journey of leaving the classroom to find balance and purpose. She opens up about the challenges of leadership in schools, why principals don’t truly control their campuses, and how giving grace can transform relationships in education. Together, we explore why the education system feels stuck in its old ways, the refusal to make necessary changes, and the emotional toll that led her to step away from teaching. Tune in for an honest conversation about rethinking education, embracing new roles, and finding peace outside the system.
