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,

Knowing About Wellbeing Isn't The Same As Doing It Well

Wellbeing language is everywhere now. We know the terms, the research headlines, and the importance of “doing wellbeing.” But knowing about wellbeing isn’t the same as holding the responsibility for it.
In this episode of The Green Heart Wellbeing Podcast: Life After Teaching, I explore the gap between awareness and application through a positive psychology and coaching psychology lens. I reflect on why good intentions don’t always translate into meaningful change, why wellbeing work is often underestimated, and what happens when the emotional and psychological weight of this work isn’t properly supported.
This isn’t a how-to episode. It’s a reframing — one that invites a deeper respect for wellbeing as applied psychological work, not just a set of ideas.
If you work in education, leadership, coaching, or any role where you hold responsibility for others’ wellbeing, this episode offers space to pause and reflect on what doing this work well really requires.
