Kathryn opens up about her initial doubts about homeschooling and how, with the wise words of a friend she realized, "You CAN. If you want to."

The conversation also dives into the importance of reconnecting with oneself in motherhood, carving out quiet moments, and the powerful need for female communities.

About Kathryn:
Kathryn Garland is a wife and mother, the badges she wears the proudest. She has always wanted to be those two people and is greatly blessed with four amazing children. As she got more entrenched in motherhood, she began to realize how much more important being a homeMAKER was than she ever imagined. Her mission and purpose is to help people see the power of the home and the possibilities that come from a safe and grounded home (in the heart, in relationships, in the physical dwelling) and the true magic we can create from this place. Kathryn is a teacher by training, turned homeschooling mama, lifelong learner, and farmer's wife. She lives a life dreams are made of in British Columbia, Canada.

In this empowering conversation, Shannon sits down with Brittany Cates, a former teacher turned User Experience (UX) designer, to inspire anyone contemplating a career change, especially teachers. They candidly discuss the demanding nature of teaching and the immense pressure that often comes with the role, emphasizing the need for self-forgiveness and boundary-setting. Brittany shares her own journey of transitioning out of the classroom, highlighting the importance of recognizing transferable skills and leaning into personal strengths. Together, they explore how teachers can apply their adaptability and resourcefulness in new fields, the benefits of networking, and the freedom found in experimenting with different career paths. Whether you’re feeling stuck or seeking new opportunities, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement to help you embrace change and pursue a fulfilling professional life.

About Brittany:
Brittany Cates is a teacher turned UX designer. An artist at heart, Brittany knew that teaching wasn’t the right path for her early on in her career. This led her to explore more creative endeavors by attempting to leave the profession twice before finally identifying her dream career.

Through career coaching and mindset work, Brittany was able to transform her beliefs in order to pursue a job transition that once seemed near impossible. Now she is guiding women who are currently in a similar place that she once was by helping them reshape their limiting beliefs and sharing actionable steps to help them accomplish their goals through 1:1 coaching.

In her spare time, Brittany enjoys a good Netflix binge, hanging out with friends and loved ones and traveling.
