EdYouWell
The EdYouWell Podcast is hosted by educators Alix Busch and Chelsea Henderson and created for teachers who want to be well and do well. With decades of combined classroom experience, we explore the real work of teaching and the real work of caring for yourself along the way.
Through honest conversations, reflections, and practical strategies, we dive into topics like energy, classroom practice, connection, and well-being—both inside and outside the classroom. EdYouWell is about moving beyond just getting through the school year and finding ways to feel grounded, supported, and sustained in this work.
New episodes are released biweekly.

40. Generations Series Part II: Teaching in Your 30s
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today, we continue our Generations Series by diving into the dynamic and often unsteady waters of teaching in your 30s. The well of energy and optimism that may have fueled you in your 20s can start to feel like a whirlpool in your 30s, as responsibilities and competing priorities pull you in multiple directions. This decade challenges educators to balance professional ambitions with family life, navigate the emotional toll of teaching, and discover the resources available to help steady the course. Yet, it’s also a time of remarkable growth and personal development, where experience shapes a more confident and purposeful approach in the classroom. Whether you're living this stage or reflecting on it, join us for a conversation about embracing this transformative period and finding balance amid the currents.
