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
011 - LIFE/WORK BALANCE - Shall We Shake It Up A Bit?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Although the clue is in the title - 'balance' - I know from experience, listening to friends, nosying on social media etc, the scales often tip in the favour of work. So, does it change our perspective if we think of it as life/work balance?
There is nobody on this planet that can tell me the main reason we are here is to work day in day out. We are expressive, creative beings and although many find their true purpose, passion or calling, for lots of us, we end up settling in order to makes ends meet, pay bills, keep up with the neighbours/housewives of _______, whatever it may be.
In this episode I share some very brief ideas on shaking up the perspectives a little around work and considering our 'life hours' first.
These are just my pondering and ideas - I'd love to hear from some of you and what you think about balance in life when it comes to work and enjoying life.
