As the leader of your school, your students rely on you to achieve academic success, your Board relies on you for sound decision making, your teaching staff relies on you to lead with motivation, and your wider school community relies on you to be a calm presence in the chaos that is a modern day school.

No pressure, of course!

We all know the stats. Not only are we facing a senior leadership crisis with many principals due to retire in the coming years and a falling pool of teachers willing to replace them… but our current school leaders are tired, burnt out, and swamped with an endless to-do list to meet the demands of this job.

Your wellness is crucial to the success of your school - it truly is essential to ensure that your health is at the top of your to-do list. You know all too well that you can’t pour from an empty cup.

We invite you to engage a FLAX mental health coach to support your wellbeing.

Mental Fitness coaching

Our FLAX coaches are qualified and experienced coaches who work one-on-one with clients to support their wellbeing in mental fitness. If you’re feeling like you’re juggling your balls well, but would like to support yourself with improved work-life balance, goal-setting, stress management, time management, or health outcomes (such as weight management or improving medical conditions/diagnosis), one of our coaches can support you to identify your goals and work to achieve them.

Mental fitness coaching is an ideal approach if you’d like to invest in yourself to ensure you’re here for a long time AND a good time!

Mental Wellbeing coaching

FLAX mental health coaches are a solution for ensuring principal wellness, and we’re here to scaffold your health “cliff” so you don’t fall and need an ambulance at the bottom!

We know that our principals have lives outside of the classroom - and when you’re feeling unwell, overwhelmed, stressed or out of balance, the lines between home and work blur.

If you’d like one-on-one confidential support, our coaches can provide guidance in any of the following areas and more. Unlike many EAP services, we use a longer approach to allow you to identify your health and wellbeing goals, work through the hurdles, blocks and challenges you’re facing, and make the changes you need to feel amazing again.

Rediscover your passion and patience again by working with a qualified and professional coach (either in person or on zoom).

We’re passionate about this work because we know leaders who feel amazing will make their team feel amazing. Let’s work together to achieve wellness for you.
