Live Well & Educate is where real talk meets real life in the world of education. Becky and Phil Halamka bring a combined thirty years of classroom, counseling, and school-life experience, plus the perspective of being married educators and raising kids of their own. From the funny moments that only educators truly understand to the tough challenges that test both patience and passion, nothing is off-limits.

Each episode is short and sweet (with a dash of not-so-sweet honesty) as we share stories, swap advice, and tackle the questions you’ve always wanted to ask but didn’t know who to turn to. We’ll also dig into practical ways to maintain your own wellness. Whether that’s setting boundaries, keeping up with physical activity, or finding small moments of joy in the chaos of teaching and parenting, we're here to help you navigate it all.

Whether you’re an educator looking for connection, a spouse of one trying to “get it,” or just curious about the behind-the-scenes of school life, this podcast is your chance to laugh, learn, and feel a little less alone on the journey.

  • They Didn't Teach Us This in Teacher School: Part 2

    They Didn't Teach Us This in Teacher School: Part 2
    21 Jan 2026

    In this episode, Becky and Phil dive into listener suggestions about what they wish they had learned in their education programs. They reflect on the reality that, at the end of the day, much of our work relies on common sense and lived experience, something that isn’t always taught or guaranteed. From breaking up fights to knowing when (and how) to ask for help, Becky and Phil share real-life lessons they’ve learned along the way, and the moments they wish they hadn’t had to learn the hard way.
