TW: this conversation covers sensitive topics, listen with caution

This one goes deep. Listen as Melissa and Nichole unpack Mr. Keating’s depiction in Dead Poets Society, exploring how the film tackles parental pressure, mental health, and the philosophy of education. 🥀 They reflect on Neil’s tragic story, the weight of societal expectations, and the complicated role Mr. Keating plays as an inspiring—but imperfect—teacher. What responsibility do educators carry for the emotional lives of their students? And how do teaching methods shape more than just test scores?

Tune in for a thoughtful, honest conversation on grief, growth, and the long-term impact of classroom leadership.
