  • Beyond Teacher Wellbeing + Season 10 coming soon

    In this episode of The Teacher Wellbeing Podcast, host Ellen Ronalds Keene returns after a hiatus to wish teachers a Happy New Year and to discuss her focus word for 2026: 'tend.' Ellen shares an invitation to a free, 90-minute webinar titled 'Beyond Teacher Wellbeing,' aimed at teachers navigating systemic challenges in 2026. This webinar will focus on support and understanding rather than self-improvement, offering a space for teachers who feel they are merely surviving rather than thriving. She also announces the preparation for Season 10 of the podcast, calling for guests who can share personal stories or insights into teacher wellbeing initiatives.


    Email [email protected] if you would like to be a guest on the podcast this year.

  • Three Tools to Support You at the Pointy End of Term

    f you’re feeling stretched thin, emotionally fried, or like everything is just a bit much right now—you are not alone. This time of term can be intense, and it’s easy to fall into overwhelm.


    In this short and supportive bonus episode, I’m sharing three powerful tools I often use with coaching clients to help navigate these high-pressure weeks. One of them came up in a session just this morning and landed so strongly, I knew I needed to bring it to the podcast too.

  • 6th Podcast Birthday + Season 10 Coming Soon

    Happy 6th Birthday to the Teacher Wellbeing Podcast!


    It sure has been an amazing ride since I began the podcast in 2017. I could not have predicted where things would end up but I’m so proud of the 9 seasons that have been produced so far. In the time since I began the show, the teacher wellbeing industry has matured so much and is now mainstream in schools across Australia.


    And of course 6 years in and my personal and professional life look extremely different than when I started the show. In this episode I share a litte update!

Check out selfcareforteachers.com.au/wellbeingchampion for more resources in this area including a new freebie about common mistakes to avoid.

    • Finding Sacred Ground in your Leadership, with Katrina Bourke
      This is a brilliant conversation with Katrina Bourke, a good friend to the podcast who has been on the show several times before. We discuss leadership sacred ground, what it is, why you need it and how we find it. Katrina also shares the power of deep self-awareness and why it’s also important that we understand and accept our shadow sides. Plus, we talk about what gets in the way of showing up as the best leaders we can be and advice for new and emerging leaders too.
