😫 Some days you get into the car after school and think to yourself ‘what in the actual was that?!’ - it’s taken everything you have to keep your cool and all you want is to get into the shower and have a nap (except that you now have to show up for your friends and family and your actual life outside work)
😫 You feel like the education system is broken - the demands placed on teachers today, coupled with the increasingly complex behaviours and experiences of children make it hard to do your job. You feel like instead of teaching the kids, you’re spending all day just trying to manage big feelings and put out behaviour spot fires
😫 You know joined the profession to make a difference, but every week you increasingly wonder whether the stress of it all is actually worth it because you also know - the system isn’t likely to change anytime soon.
If you feel this way, you’re not alone, and these are the stats to prove it…
Over 50% of Australian teachers report being very or extremely stressed and are considering leaving the profession.
(Engage Education, 2024)
59.7% of teachers experience moderate to extremely severe symptoms of stress, significantly higher than the general population's 11.4%.
(Black Dog Institute)
Research suggest that up to 40-50% of teachers leave within their first five years, primarily due to workload. A significant portion of this workload is attributed to managing student behaviour.
(Crowther Centre, 2024)
😎 Your emotional and physical energy is completely untethered from your classroom experience which means that - regardless of whether it’s been a challenging day in the classroom, you still have the energy to show up for all of the kids (not just the challenging ones) but also - the people who matter most... your own family and loved ones
😎 You have a toolkit of strategies to not just regulate yourself but also the children in your classroom, regardless of whether they’re neurotypical or neurodivergent and as a result, everyone is calmer, more settled and engaged.
😎 You’ve rediscovered your energy and vitality for teaching and it filters through to the children in your classroom, parents and the other teachers too. Everyone is having more fun, achieving better outcomes and most importantly, you’re not chronically stressed out! You’re doing exactly what you set out to do, which is, positively impact the lives of the next generation.
😎 You’re less stressed, feeling more positive and your family is getting the absolute best of you in your personal life. You’re setting goals, filling up your own cup again and have the space to enjoy and nurture your family and self.
It’s not only possible but it’s simple, and life changing when you you adopt this method...
In today’s classrooms, these skills aren’t just helpful, they’re essential.
If you want to navigate the challenges of teaching in 2025 with confidence and ease, mastering them is a non-negotiable.
'I have now returned back into the classroom and have found my passion for the job again.
I have better work life balance and have more confidence in setting healthy boundaries around my work.'
However, now after working with Emma and doing the EQ work, I realised how important it is for me to be regulated to then support those who are dysregulated.I have now returned back into the classroom and have found my passion for the job again.
I have better work life balance and have more confidence in setting healthy boundaries about my work.I feel comfortable dealing with student behaviour as I realised this isn't a reflection of my teaching but students requiring more support.
I look forward to my teaching days and have a love for the job back again which I never thought was possible.Thank you to Emma who is so relatable and a wealth of knowledge, I loved my time with you! We need more Emma's in every school to help retain quality teachers.'

-Tanya, Experienced Teacher
You're an Early Childhood, Primary or Secondary Teacher/leader or you work with children in some capacity.
You want to improve your self awareness and self regulation skills so you can feel more present in your daily life.
You want to go to school everyday feeling in balance rather than chronically stressed.
You want to learn how to support and hold space for children's emotions and learn more about your own in the process.
You want to learn how to reduce your stress so you can improve your wellbeing and capacity to teach and/or parent.
You're the type of person who takes radical responsibility for your own life. This course IS NOT a quick fix, you won't find bandaid approaches here.
You want to learn how to support children's emotions and behaviour empathetically without punitive approaches because you know shaming children leads to a negative effect long term on children's mental health.
You want to to watch lessons and not do any implementation work
Your values don't align with a holistic, non punitive approach to wellbeing and behaviour support
You’re looking for a quick fix to your stress and overwhelm. Real, lasting change takes commitment—and while this course will absolutely support you, it’s not a magic wand. You’ve got to be willing to show up for yourself.
You’re not in a place to prioritise yourself yet. This course asks for just 30–60 minutes a week, but it does require you to carve out that time intentionally. If you’re constantly putting yourself last, this might not be the right season (and that’s okay).
But if something in you knows it’s time, that you’re ready to stop running on empty, this is your invitation to make a change.
Hey there, beautiful teacher!
A former teacher and Assistant Principal turned Emotional Intelligence and Nervous System Coach and a trained Six Seconds EQ Assessor.
I'm also Dare to Lead™ and Berry St™ trained and a Circle of Security Parenting Facilitator.
So yeah, you could say that I am obsessed with learning about behaviour, emotions and the nervous system!
I help teachers, leaders, and parents build their own emotional intelligence to reduce stress, boost confidence, and support children’s behaviour with compassion and connection.
Have you noticed the shift in schools toward a non-punitive approach to discipline? Finally, right?! This is the change I’ve been waiting for!
As a passionate advocate for trauma-informed, non-punitive, and neuro affirming teaching practices (I mean, I built a whole business around it), I know there’s one key skill educators need to truly make this approach work. It's the glue that holds everything together.
Can you guess what it is?
Yep, you got it— EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE!
Let me show you why it’s the game-changer you’ve been looking for.
'I'm on a mission to help create a new generation of emotionally intelligent teachers who want to change schools from the inside out'
I know you want to create a classroom where all emotions are welcome, a space where every child feels truly accepted.
You’re striving to avoid yelling, bribing, threatening, or losing your cool, but the stress is piling up, and it’s feeding your frustration.
Every time you raise your voice or dismiss a child, you feel the guilt creeping in because you know it’s not how you want to show up,
but it’s hard to stay regulated when you’re juggling so much.
Email me at [email protected].au and we can organise this for you.
Even if you are not sure if they will cover it, send me an email.
I have worked with hundreds of teachers, in schools across Australia and internationally - I can guide you with how to approach this with your Principal and/or Head of Department.
This course is for educators (Early Childhood, Primary, Secondary, Home School Parents, ESS) who know that behaviour support starts with us, the adult.
It’s for those who are ready to move beyond quick fixes and surface strategies, and instead do the deeper work to better understand themselves and the students they support.
If you’re open to unlearning old patterns, regulating your own stress, and leading with emotional intelligence, this is for you.
It’s self-paced, because I know how full your plate is. You’ll get instant access to all modules and bonuses, and you can move through them in your own time.
You’ll also be invited into a supportive community of educators doing this work alongside you, so you’ll never feel like you’re doing it alone.
The best part is that you can listen/watch the lessons on an app on your phone, which makes it flexible. You can listen to it whilst cleaning or as a podcast in the car.
Yes, and many do!
This course counts as professional development and aligns beautifully with wellbeing, behaviour, and trauma-informed practice.
You’ll receive a course overview and invoice you can forward to leadership, plus, I’m happy to provide anything else they need to get it approved. If you email me at [email protected] I can organise this for you!
You sure will!
Once finished, you’ll receive a professional certificate outlining:
- Total hours completed
- Course overview
Perfect for your PD log, accreditation, or to show leadership what you’ve been working on.
No worries, this course is just as powerful if you’re in a CRT, specialist, leadership or support role.
It’s about your internal world, your responses, and your presence. These tools will support you in any role, with any student.
I get it. Budgets are tight.
But here’s what I know: most educators were never taught how to manage stress, regulate emotions, or support behaviour without bribes or consequences — until now.
This course is life-giving. It’s the kind of PD that doesn’t just help you teach better, it helps you feel better.
It helps you show up with more patience, clarity, and confidence — not just in the classroom, but in your home, your relationships, and your life.
Because when you do this work, the return isn’t just better student behaviour — it’s a healthier nervous system, a clearer mind, and a more aligned, sustainable way of living and leading.
And that ripple? It touches every student you teach.
This is why I created TEIE in short, powerful modules, most are under 20 minutes.
You can watch a lesson while having your coffee, driving home, or even during your non-contact time.
You’ll also have lifetime access. So if life happens (because teacher life always does), you can pause and come back when you're ready. No guilt. No rush.
There’s around 8 hours of core content, plus bonus materials.
This course is designed to be practical and flexible. You can move at your own pace, but most teachers complete it in 6-8 weeks.
The real transformation doesn’t come from just watching the content, it comes from using the daily and weekly tools, rituals, and strategies in your real life.
Most PD is heavy on theory and light on implementation. This course flips that, giving you actionable practices you can apply immediately to feel more regulated and less stressed and help your students feel the same.
Yes! Emotional intelligence doesn’t have borders.
We’ve had teachers from the UK, US, Canada, NZ, and beyond inside this course and the content is relevant to any classroom, anywhere.
You can’t “fall behind” in this course
You get lifetime access, so you can take a break, come back, and go at your own pace.
There’s no pressure, only support. This work meets you where you are.
Terms and Conditions Apply.
Your energy, reactions, and body language shape everything that happens.
This course made me realise how much we, as teachers, need to do the inner work to show up authentically. When you commit to doing this work on yourself, it shifts not only your teaching but your entire life. It’s hard to describe how powerful this transformation is until you experience it.
Honestly, this should be a requirement for all teachers—not just for their own well-being but for their students too. It’s not an overnight fix, but the growth and impact are 100% worth it.'
- Megan, Second Year Teacher
ARE YOU READY?
Teachers who are better at regulating their emotions experience higher job satisfaction, positive impact, and are less likely to feel burned out.
