Off the Syllabus: The Liberated Dreams Podcast

Welcome to Off the Syllabus: The Liberated Dreams Podcast, where education goes beyond the classroom and learning is rooted in lived experience. This episode serves as a new student orientation to the podcast... who we are, why this space exists, and what it truly means to be off the syllabus.

Hosts Dev and Kam break down their journeys in youth development, education, and leadership while unpacking the real work of developing young people inside systems that weren’t built with them in mind. From high expectations and accountability to emotional intelligence, classroom chaos, and hilarious real-life school stories, this episode lays the foundation for the conversations ahead.

You’ll hear:

Why Off the Syllabus is more than a title

How nontraditional education builds future leaders

The role emotional intelligence plays in youth behavior and adult decision-making

What working with Gen Z and Gen Alpha actually looks like

How Dev and Kam balance structure, spontaneity, and growth

This is education, culture, humor, and truth... without the lesson plan.

Black Liberation Studies is a reimagined college-level course housed within OTS Liberated Dreams Communiversity, where education is not confined to a syllabus but rooted in truth, culture, and collective freedom. This experience invites educators, parents, leaders, and changemakers into a learning space that treats lived experience as literature and liberation as both theory and practice.

Hosted by Kamrin, aka Miss Kam, and Dev, this pod course moves beyond traditional pedagogy to challenge systems, elevate youth voice, and center intergenerational wisdom. Each episode functions as a lecture, a dialogue, and a cultural cypher, exploring mental wellness, education reform, leadership development, and community transformation with rigor and care.

This is learning as elevation.

This is education as liberation.

Welcome to Liberated Dreams Communiversity, where your syllabus is always remixed and the future is being shaped in real time.
