Dr. Rachel Edoho-Eket joins Integrate This! for a conversation about joyful leadership, relational intelligence, and what it means to lead schools with heart.

Rachel shares her journey from kindergarten teacher to principal, including the mentorship that helped her see school leadership differently. She talks with Jeremy and David about the relationships new leaders should prioritize, why slowing down matters, and how leaders can respond to today’s challenges with creativity instead of exhaustion.

The conversation also explores Rachel’s TEDx message around “The Joyful Rebellion,” her book Relational Intelligence, and the role of AI in school leadership. Rather than replacing human connection, Rachel sees AI as a tool that can give educators time back for students, staff, families, and the relationships that make schools work.
