About this listen

 Rethinking Success is where Amy Green asks the questions that sit underneath everything else, about the stories we've inherited, the definitions we've never actually chosen, and what it would look like to build a life and a way of working that's genuinely fit for how we want to live now. This isn't a show about recovering from burnout or optimising your morning routine. It's a show for people who sense that something in the current model is fundamentally misaligned, and who are ready to think about what comes next. Bold, warm, and intellectually honest, Rethinking Success is a different kind of conversation about what it means to live and work well. Amy Green is a futurist, keynote speaker, and author of The Wellness Paradox — a book that interrogates the six paradoxes keeping us trapped in a version of success that was never designed to make us well. She is the founder of The Wellness Strategy and has spent years studying the intersection of work, life, and the systems that shape both.Amy Green

  • The Identity Shift Happening in Education

    The Identity Shift Happening in Education
    Dec 10 2025

    In this final episode of The Work of Wellbeing for 2025, Amy Green reflects on a powerful shift taking place in education, not just in pedagogy, but in identity.


    As AI becomes more integrated into our work, Amy challenges educators and leaders to pause and ask: What does this mean for how we work? Where we find meaning? And what we do with the time we reclaim?


    From changing teaching practices to redefining workload, Amy invites listeners to see AI not as a threat, but as a long-awaited teammate. One that, if used with intention, can reduce pressure and create the freedom educators have been asking for.


    If you’ve been wondering what’s next for education, for wellbeing, and for your own professional identity, this episode is a thoughtful, timely, and energising listen to close the year.

  • Direct Instruction: The shift impacting staff wellbeing you might not be aware of

    Direct Instruction: The shift impacting staff wellbeing you might not be aware of
    Nov 26 2025

    In this episode of The Work of Wellbeing podcast, Amy Green dives into the rapid shift towards direct and explicit instruction, and how poorly managed change processes are quietly eroding staff wellbeing.


    While Amy supports evidence-based teaching practices, she raises concerns about the lack of scaffolding, time, and clarity being offered to educators in the rollout. From rushed PD to inconsistent expectations, she highlights the need for expert support, collaborative planning, and space for reflection.


    Whether you're a school leader, teacher, or policymaker, this episode is a powerful reminder that implementation matters, and that staff wellbeing must be part of the change process if we want it to stick.

  • We have a staff wellbeing framework, now what?

    We have a staff wellbeing framework, now what?
    Nov 12 2025

    In this episode of The Work of Wellbeing podcast, Amy Green explores what happens after a school creates a staff wellbeing framework, and why that’s just the beginning.


    Having a framework is a brilliant step, but the real impact happens when it becomes embedded in your systems, decisions and daily conversations. Amy shares practical ways to bring your framework to life, from using visual cues and aligning initiatives, to team goal-setting and whole-school integration.


    Whether your school has an established framework or is just beginning, this episode is packed with actionable ideas to make staff wellbeing a shared responsibility, and a lived experience rather than a document on the wall.
