About the 365-Day H.E.A.R.T. Wellness Journal
The 365-Day H.E.A.R.T. Wellness Journal is a transformative resource created by Dr. Nichole J. Brown, designed to help educators, leaders, and visionaries reclaim peace, purpose, and power in their lives. Structured around the H.E.A.R.T. Framework, this journal offers intentional rhythms, daily reflections, weekly pulse checks, monthly resets, and seasonal re-centering to guide you towards balance, clarity, and peace. The H.E.A.R.T.

Align: Living your values daily. Restore: Resting without guilt. Thrive: Flourishing through peace and joy. Journal Structure and Rhythms The journal follows intentional rhythms over 365 days, building toward balance, clarity, and peace Daily Reflections - The Rhythm of Awareness: Space for reflection, gratitude, or intention. Users can write freely or pause in silence, meditation, or prayer. Weekly H.E.A.R.T. Pulse Checks - The Rhythm of Alignment: A weekly pause to rate connection (1-5) to each H.E.A.R.T. pillar and note patterns.

Meet Dr. Nichole J. Brown
Dr. Nichole J. Brown, an Educator Wellness Architect, brings you this transformative journal to support your journey towards holistic wellness. Her expertise and passion for empowering others shine through every page, ensuring you have the tools you need to thrive. As a former classroom teacher, and a current leader in higher education and educator preparation, Dr. Brown has experienced firsthand the unrealistic demands placed on educators—and the personal toll of systems that were never designed with educator well-being in mind. That lived experience, paired with over 15 years of educational leadership and specialized training in wellness, SEL, restorative practices, trauma-aware leadership, and racial healing, informs every framework she creates. Her work bridges research, lived experience, and systems design to address educator burnout, compassion fatigue, and attrition at the root. Rather than asking educators to simply cope within broken systems, she focuses on building structures that support sustainability, alignment, and long-term well-being. She created The Next Level Educator to support teachers, leaders, and changemakers through restorative wellness, intentional alignment, and healing-centered leadership practices. Through signature frameworks—The Well, The Exit Strategy, The Collective, and H.E.A.R.T. Work—she guides educators in reclaiming purpose, building resilience, and sustaining meaningful, impactful careers. She believes educators deserve more than survival. They deserve to thrive. Education is a sacred ecosystem—and when educators are whole, everything changes. Together, we learn to pause with intention, listen with grace, and rise with courage. Teaching, leading, and being should be H.E.A.R.T. work—not hard work. — Dr. Nichole J. Brown Your Next Level begins with your well-being. — Dr. Nichole J. Brown Dr. Nichole J.
