#021 Marybeth Schultz: School Partnerships Manager

How do you translate a rich career as a teacher and administrator into a new role in EdTech, especially when you don't see yourself as a "salesperson"? Where do you find the confidence to take that leap?

In this episode, Matt talks with Marybeth Schultz, School and District Success Manager at Edpuzzle, who shares her inspiring journey from the classroom to a role she defines as a "relationship builder" and "thought partner." Marybeth’s story is a powerful guide for any educator who has felt that "inkling" for a change but is hesitant about leaving the world of education behind.

In this episode, you'll hear:
Why Marybeth reframes her role as "teaching every day" and how this mindset can help educators find an authentic fit in a business environment.

• Actionable advice on how to build confidence and "practice using your voice" even before you leave your current school.
• The importance of being patient with yourself, embracing discomfort as a path to growth, and accepting that the journey won't be linear.
• How to leverage your professional network for support and mentorship to navigate the challenges of a career transition.
