After leaving the classroom from burnout in 2020, JennaLee has made it her mission to build and grow an online business that is sustainable and lifelong. She was able to create an online teaching business that earns me more than she did as a classroom teacher teaching what she loves (music!) as well as build multiple income streams such as courses, coaching programs, and the Limitless Membership. Now she helps teachers find sustainable ways to make an impact and income OUTSIDE of the classroom while still being able to teach. JennaLee knows you deserve a job that allows you freedom and respect - and she believes any teacher can earn an income while working from home.
