Shifting the Narrative on Teacher Wellbeing

Building 'wellbeing intelligence' for educators and schools — so people feel valued, work sustainably, and stay connected to what matters.

In a profession shaped by competing demands on time and energy, we use positive psychology and coaching psychology to build wellbeing intelligence — supporting educators to feel valued and helping schools create environments where people can thrive.

Teacher Wellbeing

Let’s be real—teaching can be exhausting.

If you work in education, you’re juggling competing demands on your time and energy every day. You’re expected to give — cognitively, emotionally and relationally — while adapting to constant change. When those demands outweigh the resources around you, your wellbeing is impacted.

And the ripple effect is huge.

Your wellbeing shapes how you think, feel and function at work. It influences your energy, your relationships and your ability to do meaningful work well. This isn’t about more self-care or pushing harder, it’s about understanding and managing your energy in sustainable ways.

Let’s be real—education is exhausting.

You’re constantly giving, juggling, and adapting. The pressure is relentless, and the system isn’t exactly designed to support you. But here’s the thing: teacher wellbeing isn’t just about self-care. It’s about energy—how you manage it, protect it, and restore it.

 

Teaching shouldn’t come at the cost of your wellbeing

If you’re a teacher, your wellbeing affects how you show up for students and whether you can sustain a career you care about.

If you’re a leader, staff wellbeing underpins culture, trust and retention — and directly impacts performance and engagement.

Wellbeing isn’t just personal. It’s shaped by you, the people around you, and the systems you work within. Some of this sits within your influence. Some of it requires shared responsibility.

Either way, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

 

I’m Daniela Falecki,

founder of Teacher Wellbeing.

Educator – Author - Speaker

I’ve spent decades working in and alongside schools, and I know how overwhelming the work can feel when demands keep growing and recognition doesn’t always follow. That’s why I support educators and leaders to build wellbeing intelligence — strengthening mindset, energy and a sense of mattering in realistic, evidence-informed ways.

My work helps you feel more grounded, more valued, and more confident that what you do each day genuinely matters — to your students, your colleagues and your school community.

For SCHOOLS

I partner with school leaders to reframe what often feels like compliance into meaningful wellbeing initiatives — where people feel valued, recognised and supported.

Drawing on organisational and coaching psychology, I help leaders build the conditions, leadership practices and ways of working so educators know that what we do matters.
