But before we get to that, let’s bring the focus back to the real hero here: YOU (yes, you!)
Pour yourself a fresh cup of coffee, open up the windows, and let’s get to know each other!
Hey friend!
Tie dye lovin’, audiobook obsessed, growth-minded, faith led, CrossFit powered, small town Georgia English teacher, mama of five turned 7-figure online teacher business owner and founder of the CEO Teacher® movement.
I’m Kayse Morris
Are you with me?
To give you the tools to ride
these tidal waves of change and
create the life for yourself and
your family that you’ve always
dreamed of.
my mission:
The education system is transforming faster than a teenager
during a growth spurt
All over the world.
Because the only thing that lights me up more than empowering children to read… Is empowering teachers like YOU to take control of your life and create some much deserved FREEDOM — all while helping more students, teachers, and parents.
Don’t get me wrong, I loved teaching in the classroom. But when I discovered the secrets to growing a teacher business that lasts — I knew I had to step out of the classroom and do everything I could to help YOU do the same. My mission is NOT to pull you from the classroom, but to empower you to step into your truth - whatever that might be.
+ Stressed out and overworked.
+ Giving everything I had to my students and school.
+ Spending my evenings grading papers. And my chaotic mornings planning classes.
+ Wishing I had more time for my babies and husband.
+ All while living off of our credit cards and wondering where my next student loan payments were coming from.
Because I’ve been where you are…
With CEO Teacher®, teachers just like you are learning to leverage their teaching skills (and special magic), existing expertise, and huge hearts so they can build profitable and purposeful online teacher businesses.
Vibrant, hard working, big hearted, coffee and flair pen fueled superstar in a cardigan. You became a teacher to make a difference. To help raise and prepare the next generation of world changers...to change the world one student - one school day at a time.
How I went from mountains of debt and barely paying my Netflix bill to 7-figure CEO Teacher®
you might be wondering...
No matter what I was going through on the inside. They helped me be my best self.
And I was afraid to ask for help.
I discovered TPT when I was going through a dark night of the soul. I was anxious, suffering from deep postpartum depression, and so much financial stress.
I had nothing left to give to my students, my family, or myself. And I barely had the energy to get myself to school. Let alone plan all of the lessons, create all of the worksheets, and figure out how to make learning fun for my students.
The resources I found online helped me show up for my students and be the best teacher I could be.
When I first started sharing my ideas online, I didn’t even know how to create a sellable worksheet, let alone a design a course, start a podcast, I had NO IDEA what SEO even was, or how to show up authentically and connect with my specific audience.
You should have seen me struggle to make my first resource in Microsoft Word 😂 (Hot tip… Use PowerPoint, friend!) Or the 3 people who showed up to watch my first IG Live. 🙌 Shout out to my mama!
That so many of my students would double their teaching incomes (lots of them within a year of starting their own online teacher biz).
And that some of them would become 6-figure CEO Teachers® in their own rights.
I started selling my resources to give back (and to pay my Netflix bill #startsmall)
I never imagined I’d one day be helping thousands of other teachers become the CEOs of their own teacher businesses, using the success pathways and frameworks that make up the backbone of the CEO Teacher®.
Then when I made $50 that first month sharing my own ideas? That’s when I realized that…
That $50 was just the beginning…
By year three I had made → and learned from ← all sorts of mistakes and almost tripled my teaching income.
Which is why I knew I had to go all in and I decided to leave the classroom so I could study with online business masters.
I decided to take all of the lessons and teachings I’d learned along the way to create the world’s only online business school made especially for teachers:
Here’s a peek
at how I made it
happen and you can too!
