What does teaching have to do with entrepreneurship? Everything. In this episode, I share how my years as a classroom educator gave me the exact skills I needed to become a CEO and business owner.

📚 From differentiating for students to leading with systems and storytelling, the lessons I learned in education are the same ones I use in boardrooms, client coaching sessions, and now, as an author.

✨ If you’re an educator dreaming of your next chapter—or a leader seeking fresh perspective—this episode is your reminder that the skills you already have are enough to begin.

In this episode of The Cultural Curriculum Chat, host Jebeh Edmunds explores how Virtual Reality (VR) can be a powerful tool to build empathy and cultural competence in classrooms and workplaces.

Imagine walking through a bustling marketplace in another country—where even greetings and eye contact feel unfamiliar. VR offers this kind of immersive perspective-taking, helping learners recognize assumptions and practice inclusive responses. But, as Jebeh emphasizes, VR is not a cure-all—it’s most effective when paired with skilled facilitation, reflection, and real-world action.

You’ll also learn how to use VR safely and ethically, with practical tips for opt-in alternatives, accessibility supports, and ensuring psychological safety for all participants.

🎧 Tune in to discover how you can harness VR to create meaningful, budget-friendly learning experiences that bring cultural competence to life.

Welcome back to The Cultural Curriculum Chat with your host, Jebeh Edmunds! In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on the most common myths about cultural competency—and why they’re holding back real progress in our schools, organizations, and communities.

💭 Have you ever heard someone say:

• “Isn’t cultural competency just common sense?”
• “We treat everyone the same—why do we need training?”
• “Isn’t this just Diversity 101?”

If so, this episode is for YOU. Jebeh breaks down:

• Why cultural competency goes far beyond food, flags, and festivals
• The difference between diversity (the who) and competency (the how)
• Why a one-time workshop won't cut it—and what sustainable, meaningful practice really looks like
• Real client stories from Jebeh Cultural Consulting’s 5-year journey, working with 80+ organizations
• How to build inclusive systems through reflection, action, and culturally responsive leadership

💡 If you're ready to ditch performative practices and start implementing actionable, long-lasting change, don't miss this empowering conversation.

👉 BONUS: Learn more about Jebeh’s mini course: Cultural Competency & Being an Active Ally—a self-paced, ready-to-use resource for schools, workplaces, and teams. Link in the show notes!

What happens when a folktale whispered by your mother becomes the novel your heart can't stop writing? In this deeply personal episode, I pull back the curtain on my transformation from educator and podcast host to debut novelist with "The Orange Blossom."

For years, I've carried the story of the Orange Vendor Woman—a Liberian tale about finding your purpose and refusing to be diverted from it. This story became more than just a teaching moment for my student teachers; it became the seed of my creative rebirth. When one student teacher named Angel gifted me a painting of oranges, little did she know she was planting the visual reminder that would eventually bloom into my first novel.

My manuscript journey wasn't without its struggles. Those first 33 pages sat untouched in my Google Docs for three years while self-doubt whispered in my ear. But with the encouragement of my mastermind group and a transformative writing retreat, I developed a disciplined writing routine complete with character mood boards, family trees, and personalized playlists for each character. The novel spans decades of Liberian history, honoring the multidimensional nature of my culture that too often gets flattened in Western narratives.

This isn't just fiction—it's preservation. "The Orange Blossom" is my love letter to Liberian women, to our resilience, and to anyone questioning their path. Sometimes our purpose isn't flashy or loud; sometimes it's sweet and sun-ripened, just waiting to be harvested. Subscribe to my newsletter for weekly updates as we approach the fall publication date, and join me on this beautiful journey from classroom to bookshelf. Your support means everything as I step into this new chapter of my creative life.
