Leaving teaching is never an easy decision, but there are signs that can help you know if it’s time.

In this episode of The Green Heart Wellbeing Podcast: Life After Teaching, I share five clear indicators that it might be time to step away from the classroom — from burnout and misaligned values, to losing the joy in teaching, noticing the impact on your health and relationships, and dreaming of something new.

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering “Should I stay, or should I go?” (What a song!), this episode will give you honest reflections and helpful insights from my own journey and coaching work.

This podcast is for teachers, ex-teachers, and anyone curious about career change, wellbeing, and what life beyond the classroom can look like.
