Kayse Morris is the creator of The CEO Teacher and has helped thousands of other teachers break through the classroom glass ceiling.
Kayse started selling her teaching resources from the kitchen table in 2013 after grappling with a four-year-long stint through deep (and I mean deep) postpartum depression. Today, The CEO Teacher is a multimillion dollar business.
In this episode, you’ll learn how Kayse transitioned from selling digital products to a membership, how to avoid making bad hires, how she manages such a large membership community, and why Kindness is at the core of her business.
