About this episode

Eli McCann shares his heartfelt story about a teacher who influenced his life, prompting Kate to reflect on her own impactful teacher.

Eli McCann, attorney and writer, went viral on TikTok for his heartfelt videos celebrating his beloved teacher, Mrs. Yates, and his story sends Kate down memory lane to her own fifth grade classroom in West Chester, Pennsylvania, where a small but mighty teacher named Helena Graham delivered one unforgettable piece of advice that changed the course of her life. This episode is a love letter to the teachers who saw something in us, said the hard things when no one else would, and shaped us in ways we are still discovering decades later.        Reality Life with Kate Casey  Vanity Fair Article: https://www.vanityfair.com/culture/story/martha-moxleys-diary?srsltid=AfmBOooNmlL6iZWJ-CJjB9_xnKybed-b2Jk0AlhOatBgDsXjeCylb8rU   What to Watch List: https://katecasey.substack.com   Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/katecasey   Twitter: https://twitter.com/katecasey   Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/katecaseyca   Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itskatecasey?lang=en   Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/113157919338245   Amazon List: https://www.amazon.com/shop/katecasey   Like it to Know It…
