The EdYouWell Podcast is a space that helps teachers thrive rather than just survive the school year. Hosted by experienced teachers Alix Busch and Chelsea Henderson, this podcast explores the connection between being well and doing well, both at work and at home.

Teaching is meaningful work, but it can also be demanding, overwhelming, and at times isolating. That’s why EdYouWell exists. Here you will find encouragement, practical ideas you can use, and reminders that you are not alone. Whether you are navigating daily classroom challenges, looking for ways to care for your own well-being, or simply wanting to feel inspired again, this space is for you.

Take a breath, settle in, and dive into the well with us.

81. Taking it Low and Slow
In this episode of Taking it Low and Slow, we’re talking about what it really means to take a step back when the teaching day starts moving too fast. In classrooms that are full, loud, and constantly shifting, we don’t always need to take more on, we often need to take something off, take a breath, and take things one small step at a time. Today, we’re sharing five simple “TAKE” mantras to help you slow the pace, steady your energy, and move through your day with more clarity, calm, and intention. Come and take from the well with us!
