Listen Later

Welcome to Gather at the Well, where we’re all about microdosing wellness, creating human-centered systems, and retaining our greatest asset: our people. This isn’t just a podcast—it’s a movement to reimagine how we relate to our work. Whether you're burned out, stressed, or thriving, Lindsey Fuller from The Teaching Well will guide you to reflect on your leadership, equip you with tangible tools for your team, and honor your humanity. It’s time to build work cultures we don’t have to heal from. Let’s dive in.

In this episode of Gather At The Well, Lindsay dives into what it means to embrace change leadership—moving from just talking about change to actually leading it. She opens up about her own experiences balancing self-care with taking care of her team, and how community agreements can create healthier, more authentic team dynamics. From setting healthy boundaries to managing work-life balance, this chat is full of real talk and practical tips for leaders who want to build more supportive, equitable, and resilient workplaces. We hope you enjoy ❤️
