We're so pleased to announce the upcoming release of The Flourishing Factor: Unlocking the Power of Self-Compassion for Thriving Educators by positive psychology coach and educator Chris Egan – publishing 3rd June 2026.
Teaching asks so much of us. Day in, day out, educators pour care, patience and kindness into their students and communities. But how often do we turn that same compassion inward? That's the question at the heart of this warm, evidence-based guide – and Chris Egan has spent a career working out the answer.
Drawing on over 35 years in education and 20+ years of research in positive psychology, Chris makes a compelling case for self-compassion as the missing ingredient in educator wellbeing. Through reflective prompts, practical strategies and honest stories from teachers and school leaders who have genuinely transformed their inner lives, The Flourishing Factor offers a roadmap for moving from burnout and self-criticism towards something better: real, lasting flourishing.
This is a book for every educator who has ever held themselves to a standard they'd never dream of applying to the people they teach.
The Flourishing Factor is available to pre-order now at $39.95.
