I recently joined the Whole Mom podcast for a rich, heart-forward conversation about courage, culture, and choosing your next chapter. The episode is titled “Episode 23: Strength, Storytelling & Stepping Into Your Next Chapter with Jebeh Edmunds.” It’s live now—hope you’ll give it a listen.
Why this conversation matters
As an educator, cultural storyteller, and mom, I’ve learned that the stories we tell—about our families, our students, and ourselves—shape the way we lead and love. On this episode, I share how honoring my Liberian roots, my classroom years, and my work in cultural competency all led me toward bolder storytelling and a new creative season.
What we talk about
The strength I draw from my Liberian heritage—and how it shows up in my teaching and consulting.
What it looks like to move from the classroom to entrepreneurship while keeping students and community at the center.
Why storytelling is a leadership skill—and practical ways to use stories to build trust and belonging.
A peek into my upcoming debut novel, The Orange Blossom, arriving October 16, 2025
A favorite moment
We dug into the power of origin stories—how the narratives we inherit can become the ones we choose, and how mothers model that courage daily. If you’re navigating a transition, I think this will encourage you.
