Listen "Educator Well-being with Kathryn"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a text Every teacher knows the weight of responsibility that comes with nurturing young minds—but who’s looking after the educators themselves? In this heartfelt conversation, we sit down with Kathryn, an experienced teacher turned online educator and health coach, who’s passionate about supporting teacher and student well-being. With over two decades of teaching experience across New Zealand, Kathryn shares how her journey led from the classroom to several principal roles and, more recently, to working with students online. Kathryn offers practical well-being strategies that busy teachers can start using right away—like reconnecting with your "why," taking mindful nature breaks, and prioritising sleep and nutrition. Her reflections on self-compassion, including insights from Dr. Kristin Neff, remind educators to care for themselves with the same kindness they show their students.
