    After a short break, Positively Beaming is back! In this relaxed and reflective solo episode, Jenny Cole jumps behind the mic for an unscripted chat about the value of showing up—imperfectly, but authentically. Inspired by a recent catch-up with fellow women in business, Jenny shares why it’s okay to pause, reset, and return without all the bells and whistles.

    This new mini summer series isn’t about leadership theory—it’s about pausing to reflect on who you want to be and how you want to show up in 2026. Whether you're tuning in from the beach or a picnic blanket, this gentle episode invites you to take a breath and be present.

    If this vibe speaks to you, share it with a friend, save the episode, or leave a quick review. Thanks for being here—let’s dive in.

  • Winter Series E4 - Leadership, AI and Human Connection with Jade Aim
    Jul 16 2025

    Send us a text

    In this special episode of Positively Leading, we welcome Jade Aim, Principal of Kelmscott Primary School. Jade shares her inspiring path from teaching to leadership, shaped by early family experiences and the power of mentorship. She reflects on building a strong school culture through simple, consistent rituals and a shared school charter that fosters accountability and care.

    Jade also shares her game-changing approach to technology—using AI tools to cut through admin overload. From creating differentiated resources and translating documents for families to drafting parent communications and generating reports, AI helps her team stay focused on what matters most: relationships. “What teachers have is relationships,” she says, “and AI can’t build that yet.”

    With practical tips on authenticity, gradual change, and asking for help, this episode offers real-world strategies for leaders at every stage.
