Summary
“We’re all in the same storm, just in different boats.” Daniela Falecki So much has changed in how we understand staff wellbeing in schools, and with that, the way we approach it is evolving, inviting us to notice what is shaping our experience of work each day. Through the layers of the me, the we and the us, we begin to see that staff wellbeing is shaped within us, between us and around us. In this conversation, Meg Durham and Daniela Falecki explore how the conversation around staff wellbeing has evolved over the past decade, reflecting on where we started, what we may have misunderstood, and what we are now seeing with greater clarity. Together they talk about where we get stuck, the pull towards blame, and the importance of quality conversations because when we shift how we talk about staff wellbeing, we begin to shift what becomes possible. This isn’t a conversation about doing more. It’s an invitation to think differently about the work itself, so staff wellbeing feels more manageable, more meaningful and more sustainable for all. ---- Chapter Markers: 00:00 Welcome 02:00 Where staff wellbeing began 05:30 Why this didn’t start with COVID 08:00 Misunderstandings about staff wellbeing 12:30 The shift in how we think about it 20:00 The me, the we and the us 27:00 Why feeling valued matters 34:00 What actually helps 40:00 Systems, language and clarity 48:00 Final reflections ---- Reflection Prompts: I’m beginning to see… One conversation I could approach differently is… A deliberate action I can take is...
