Building Authenticity, an Interview with Todd Nesloney
Listen to The Wired Educator Podcast, Episode 248
In this episode of The Wired Educator Podcast, I sit down with one of my favorite education leaders and storytellers, Todd Nesloney. Todd returns to the show to share powerful insights from his newest book, Building Authenticity: A Blueprint for the Leader Inside You.Todd currently serves as the Director of Culture and Strategic Leadership for the Texas Elementary Principals and Supervisors Association (TEPSA). He is a nationally recognized educator who has been honored by the White House, John C. Maxwell, and the National School Board Association, among many others. From leading a PreK–5 campus of 775 students to co-authoring bestsellers like Kids Deserve It, Todd continues to inspire and challenge educators to lead with heart, honesty, and boldness.
In this conversation, we talk about what it really means to lead authentically, how to stay rooted in your values, and why storytelling is essential for building meaningful school culture. Whether you are a teacher, administrator, or just passionate about education, this episode will fuel your leadership journey.
