Who is Breaking the Bell™ for?

Educators. Full stop.

Whether you're in the classroom, stepping out, or already mid-transition—Breaking the Bell™ is for anyone ready to explore new income streams, career paths, or entrepreneurial opportunities without losing their sense of purpose.

Is this only for K–12 educators?

Not at all.

While many of our tools are tailored for K–12 teachers and administrators, we also support higher ed faculty, counselors, specialists, and district leaders—anyone with an education background looking to take the next step.

Do I need to quit teaching to benefit from this?

Not at all.

This isn’t about walking away from your career—it’s about expanding your options. Many educators start exploring side hustles or new career paths while still in the classroom. Breaking the Bell™ is designed to support you at any stage.

What if I’m not sure where to start?

That's exactly why this exists.

You don’t need a five-year plan—just a starting point. We offer relatable stories, practical tools, and clear direction to help you figure out what’s next with clarity and confidence.

What kinds of income paths do you explore?

We spotlight real opportunities where educators thrive:That’s exactly why this exists.

Freelance and consulting work, corporate or non-profit careers, side-hustles or service based businesses, and thought leadership, speaking, and authorship.

Whether you're looking to earn extra income or completely pivot, there's something here for you.

Is this just for people who want to start a business?

Nope.

Entrepreneurship is one path—but not the only one. Whether you want to consult, join a mission-driven organization, or grow your presence as a thought leader, Breaking the Bell™ helps you explore what fits you best.

Can I connect with Dr. Manny or the team directly?

Yes—and you’re encouraged to.
