306. 5 Things to Unlearn from School

Jody Moore
About this episode

Discover some of the things we were taught in school that, as adults, we really need to start questioning. I'm sharing five things that may have served us as kids, and I'm dissecting them so you can see why we need to unlearn them. I find all of this so fascinating, so if you can think of any that I haven't included here, reach out and share them!
