Season 8 Episode #5 Work That Matters: Leadership Lessons Rooted in Courage and Care with Dr. Jodi Vandenberg-Daves
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this inspiring episode of The Cultural Curriculum Chat Podcast™, host Jebeh Edmunds sits down with Dr. Jodi Vandenberg-Daves, historian, author, leadership coach, and lifelong advocate for feminist and anti-racist values.
Growing up in the exurbs of Chicago with a union-electrician father and a mom-turned-realtor, Jodi learned the meaning of solidarity early on. Today, she channels that foundation into helping women and marginalized leaders lead with authenticity, empathy, and courage.
Together, Jebeh and Jodi explore:
💡 How to create workplaces that uplift caregivers and mothers
👩🏾🏫 Why mentorship is an act of feminist activism
🌍 The importance of bringing anti-racist and feminist frameworks into leadership
📖 Insights from her new book Work That Matters — and why it’s a must-read for women at every career stage
💬 How our personal stories connect to history and shape the way we lead
This conversation is a call to action for women who lead with heart, balance purpose with care, and believe that their work truly matters.
