94: Teacher Wellness with Danielle Nuhfer
Danielle Nuhfer believes that “well teachers will change the world.” And part of how this change will happen is through educators, school leaders, and school systems finding creative ways to prioritize teacher well-being.
Danielle is the author of The Path of the Mindful Teacher which chronicles her own journey of burnout and how she found a mindfulness practice that transformed her from the inside out.
During her 20 years as a public school educator, she founded Teaching Well which is dedicated to helping school leaders increase teacher retention and student outcomes by choosing to prioritize well-being through professional development opportunities and teacher wellness coaching.
Join us for this important conversation about avoiding teacher burnout and creating school cultures that are integral to the trajectory of change in education.
IN THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS:
- How classroom teaching and burnout led Danielle to finding and practicing mindfulness.
- Using mindfulness to change our perspectives and empower teachers.
- The Teaching Well program and how it shifts classroom and school culture.
- What can leaders do to prioritize the well-being of their staff.
- Danielle’s favorite question to ask ourselves to increase awareness without judgement.
- Why “well teachers” are integral to the trajectory of change in education.
- Using mindfulness to create meaningful interactions in classrooms.

MORE ABOUT THE REBEL EDUCATOR PODCAST:
In each episode of the Rebel Educator podcast, I deconstruct world-class educators, students, and thought leaders in education to extract the tactics, tools, and routines that you can use as teachers and parents. Join me as we discuss how to shift the classroom, the learning environment, the mindset, and the pedagogy, to resist tradition, reignite wonder, and re-imagine the future of education.
This podcast is dedicated to all of the educators who work thankless hours to make our next generation the best it can be. It was designed to begin conversations on how we can redesign education for the future of work and the success of our students. It is meant for teachers, students, administrators, homeschoolers and anyone who interacts with and teaches youth.
