Connection is the theme of today, teaching is statistically the loneliest profession, and a key thread running through everything RegulatED is here to do is community and connection.

Our nervous systems regulate each other, provide a basic human need of belonging.

And if you’re leading a school, college or University, it can be even harder being the one who is ultimately responsible for holding everyone else.

The RegulatED community will be a live support network and community for every staff member.

Enjoy today’s episode and let me know in the comments how this lands for you

I’m recording this late in the day, after a long day of creating systems and governance, more changes to who I am and the labels I choose for myself!

Watched Dear England, the Gareth Southgate story and I loved it. I’ve always respected him as a manager, putting the humans at the centre, rewriting stories and creating connection.

He spoke about us all bring links in an unbroken chain, stretching backwards and also forwards.

This resonates so much for me right now in this process. Everything has always been about the humans, the people, capable of creating such incredible moments and writing new stories.

Today’s podcast asks what will your part be in writing the story?

If you are a school and want to find out about how putting the human at the centre of wellbeing and culture will look in your school , please email on [email protected]

Struck yesterday by the enormity of the task and the potential amazingness of what we are creating, I said to my friend yesterday I’m terrified.

And that’s ok. Because a)it’s normal and b) I know how to create safety in it and keep moving forward.

Knowing what the language is is one thing… knowing what it feels like and being able to teach that to others and use it to create a space where everyone feels safe, like they belong and have the space and opportunities to thrive, grow and be themselves is the elite level of leadership.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and as always if you’d like to contact me for low founder rates for education for me to come in so you and your staff can experience what this feels like and how to understand the signals, then please email [email protected]

Happy listening and thank you for being here x

Communication is everything when we are talking about culture and how people feel. Not just the hierarchical structure of the org chart, but every single individual being an equal human being.

Today I dive into what that means when I say “resourcing the human” , how we increase capacity for emotions and touch on what I mean by regulating (more on this in subsequent episodes!)

Your capacity as a human to have regulated responses, feel all of the feelings and be able to communicate productively without betraying your humanness! Are you a shot glass that bubbles over super quickly or a pint glass?

If this speaks to you and you want to be a part of creating a movement that creates so much positive change that government can’t ignore it, please get in touch in [email protected]

I’ve recorded this on the Sunday at the end of May half term, and instead of my thoughts, feelings, or what I’ve done today I wanted to share something that will help you to create some space, to feel calmer and more in Control and have some more capacity.

All you need is 5 minutes and you can choose to give yourself a bit of breathing space.

I’d love to hear how this felt ❤️

I’ll be honest I started off thinking I would talk about one thing and ended up talking about this instead, but it’s turned out to be exactly what I needed to say today.

We are creating a systemic culture change that instead of a machine that sees the component parts as robots churning out grades, is a beautiful living ecosystem. When we nurture it everything bears more fruit.

If you’d like to know what this looks like for your school/college or university, then please contact me on [email protected]

The Stats are staggering.

74% of teachers have considered leaving the profession explicitly because of burnout and chronic work stress.Up to 86% of teachers state their job has adversely impacted their mental health, with low wellbeing scores significantly below the general population average. 

Approximately 76% to 78% of all education staff report feeling currently stressed at work, a figure that rises to over 80% for senior school leaders.

And 32% of teachers will leave before the end of their fifth year.

(stats from TeS and DfE)

Similar figures apply for TA's.

There are more options than ever before to resources for physical, mental and emotional health and yet we are more disconnected than ever.

This is why RegulatED exists.

(Please do excuse any swears - sorry Mum!- I am a passionate soul!)

After 20 years of guiding humans through the process of behaviour change, I know that there are many moving parts of what makes it happen.

In today's episode I talk about the element of the humans at the centre and how they feel, and the bare bones of the process of changes (human centred of course!)

I talk about the challenges of change that you haven't chosen and how to embed that in meaningful ways (hint: it comes back to your people again)

And how I know there will be inspirational leaders listening to this, and amazing people who know that their leadership team want to look at how best they can support them.

If this is you, please email [email protected] to discuss what this could look like for your school/nursery/college/university

For businesses please email [email protected] for Leadership Capacity, Nervous System regulation and capacity for your whole teams to reduce burnout and stress and improve wellbeing, productivity and creativity.

Let the visionary angst commence!

Today has been fantastic and although I can't share the contents of what happened, I have no doubt that today will be a pivotal point in the journey towards RegulatED being a nationwide movement.

What I wanted to share with you as I embark on this journey, is to start as I mean to go on, share what it looks and feels like to be taking bold steps to create something that hasn't been done and the self leadership that needs to happen for that to be a reality.

Being Body Led™ supporting myself through the stretch in my capacity so I can BE the one who is DOING the things necessary so we HAVE the culture that everyone deserves.

I would love for you to comment, share with people who you think will benefit, and who will be interested in the inner work that is necessary to be the best leader possible.

When the vision is so vast and it's not been done before, then it's ok to not know every single part of the plan.

On 27th May I'll begin 100 days of a podcast episode a day (I know I have technically started already!) and I'll be sharing all of my next logical steps as I take on changing the systemic culture of education in the UK.
