What career will help me fulfill my purpose and set my family up for financial freedom ?
What career will help me fulfill my purpose and set my family up for financial freedom? I am a non immigrant living in the USA for 2 years now for my husband’s work. We recently changed visas to enable him get a better paying job and I am no longer eligible to work with my new visa (O3). I will like to return to school but I have a hard time choosing a financially sustainable career option. I have a veterinary degree from my country and after working as a veterinary technician for two years in the USA, I have come to the conclusion that the vet world is not for me. I studied vet medicine home only because medicine was considered a noble profession that will help me have earnings and I was “smart” enough to pass the competitive exam into vet school. I am more passionate about community engagement and helping children from underprivileged background have access to education. I run a small non profit based in my country to achieve this objective. I want to make a career out of that but do not want to have to take loans to go back to school as I am still new to the American system of school loans. I also want a career that will be able to provide for my family. Which career options should I be looking at? I love project management, communication, and have been told by many that I do them well. Are those sustainable career options in non profit? Thanks in advance for your advice.

A teacher switching careers here! What are keywords, or specific careers, that a teacher can use to help navigate looking for work in the non-teaching education field?
I have 4+ years experience teaching within a K-2 classroom. I was a grade team leader for 1 of those years and currently an instructional grade team leader which means I'm in charge of the development of 2 teachers, as well as a classroom of students. I'm passionate about all things education such as: educational research, community growth, educational pedagogy, educational policy, educational advocacy, educational material/content development, educational sales, etc. I'm usually the high energy, hard working teammate or leader that likes to bring excitement and passion to the workplace. I'm very sociable and find it enjoyable to make partnerships with parents, teachers, and other stakeholders that are invested in improving education. I believe it's time to leave the classroom and venture out into other aspects of education and beyond. With that said, I'm looking for advice on keywords, or specific careers, to help navigate the convoluted field of education that I would love to continue to explore and make an impact.
