Description

Happy, healthy people are more effective teachers and more productive members of society. Yet, an increasing number of teachers are suffering stress-related illness and burnout. Some of these educators struggle through at a reduced capacity, but quite a lot just leave the profession altogether. Many educators put everyone else's health and happiness before their own, because they just want to make a difference. However, it backfires because the external expectations and demands of the job keep increasing regardless of the dwindling reserves of teachers. This podcast aims to facilitate and contribute to the conversation about teacher wellbeing, positive schools and burnout prevention, to inspire and empower educators of all kinds to take back control of their health and happiness by being proactive about their wellbeing, and to give teachers permission to put themselves first, so that they can go on making a difference long into the future.

In this episode of The Teacher Wellbeing Podcast, host Ellen Ronalds Keene returns after a hiatus to wish teachers a Happy New Year and to discuss her focus word for 2026: 'tend.' Ellen shares an invitation to a free, 90-minute webinar titled 'Beyond Teacher Wellbeing,' aimed at teachers navigating systemic challenges in 2026. This webinar will focus on support and understanding rather than self-improvement, offering a space for teachers who feel they are merely surviving rather than thriving. She also announces the preparation for Season 10 of the podcast, calling for guests who can share personal stories or insights into teacher wellbeing initiatives.

Happy 6th Birthday to the Teacher Wellbeing Podcast! It sure has been an amazing ride since I began the podcast in 2017. I could not have predicted where things would end up but I’m so proud of the 9 seasons that have been produced so far. In the time since I began the show, the teacher wellbeing industry has matured so much and is now mainstream in schools across Australia. And of course 6 years in and my personal and professional life look extremely different than when I started the show. In this episode I share a litte update!
