The Green Heart Wellbeing Podcast - Life After Teaching
Formerly Diary of an Ex-Teacher: Navigating the World of Wellbeing, this podcast is for teachers, ex-teachers, and anyone ready to put their wellbeing first.
After 14 years in the primary classroom (12 in Dubai), I swapped my whiteboard for a new adventure — growing Green Heart Wellbeing. Now I coach adults and kids, run wellbeing clubs in schools, and work with educators and parents to bring positive psychology into daily life.
Each week, I’ll share real-life reflections, wellbeing tools you can actually use, and behind-the-scenes moments from building my wellbeing business — plus one simple takeaway you can try straight away.
If you’re curious about life after teaching, want to boost your wellbeing, or need a weekly reminder to put yourself first, you’re in the right place.
With a Green Heart,

The Green Heart Wellbeing Podcast - Life After Teaching
Why Did I Think I Could Start A Business...?

When I left the classroom after 14 years, I thought starting a business would be the natural next step. I imagined freedom, balance, and meaningful work. The reality has been much more of a rollercoaster.
In this episode of The Green Heart Wellbeing Podcast: Life After Teaching, I get honest about the challenges of building a wellbeing business after teaching — from the gap between expectation and reality, to imposter syndrome, to managing the inevitable panic and struggles that come with starting something new.
I’ll also share why, even on the hardest days, this journey still feels worthwhile and why creating something that supports teachers, children, and adults is worth the ups and downs.
This podcast is for teachers, ex-teachers, and anyone considering a career change who wants an authentic look at what life after teaching can really be like.
