Job Seeking in Rural Kansas

I was forced to resign from my dream job. I have and Ed.S in leadership and have worked so hard to move up the ladder. I made a mistake at my previous job... I owned my mistake and came to the meeting with an improvement plan. I was told I came across as incompetent and unprepared and when I asked how I can improved I was told “I don’t know” so I presented my plan...I loved my job and loved what I was a part of...during my improvements I received no feedback from my leaders and in December I ended up having a 7 minute phone call telling me I was to be terminated. None of my colleagues understood why I was on improvement but continued to not receive any feedback from leadership. I left my previous job after 18 years to start this one. Fortunately I was given the option to resign rather than be terminated. It’s now been 8 months and I still haven’t found a job. My one nonnegotiable was returning to my previous district.. it was a toxic environment and I had a target because I challenged leadership to do the right thing supporting behavior. I at a loss..we can’t move our youngest is a junior..but I can’t find anything..I need guidance, words of wisdom..direction...really anything...I have so many skills to offer but struggle to “sell” myself and find a job...help??
