  • Refreshing!

    I discovered Unlearn16 on Facebook and immediately followed every platform. Recently dove into the podcast and it is just as amazing! As a school Admin Assistant, I relate and most of all, I’ve opened my eyes to a few topics you have discussed that were outside of the box and empowering!

  • I needed You!

    Saw a couple TikTok’s ages ago and thought you are so smart! And local! Love your take on things and how you make me think about everything I ever knew. You’ve shown me perspectives I hadn’t thought about! And I love that and needed that!

    I’m with Ana, but the original Dirty Dancing is my favourite
