Hey,
I'm Lindsey Lerner.
Unlearning practitioner · Host of Field Notes on Unlearning · Bronx, NY
I’ve spent my whole life helping people see themselves more clearly, as a documentary photographer, anthropologist, and community strategist. All of it led me to my current project, Field Notes on Unlearning.
Find me all around NYC (and beyond) hosting the gatherings. Or on LinkedIn and Substack, recording what emerges from them through essays, audio, and photography.
Field Notes on Unlearning
Unlearning, done together. Essays, audio, and gatherings about the stories we carry, and what happens when we set them down. Because what was learned together is best unlearned together, too. Hosted by me.
Generalist World
I helped build Generalist World from the ground up—a global community for people who don’t fit into neat boxes. I co-created Unboxed, a course that helped generalists name what they’re great at, own it, and use it to make bold moves.
We supported 100K+ folks figuring out what’s next and how to do work that actually fits.
Fabrik
Brought on to lead early community strategy, including the design and execution of Fabrik’s founding member cohort in Tribeca. As the company grew, supported product development and storytelling—shaping brand voice, messaging frameworks, and content across product, onboarding, and investor materials. Worked closely with product and engineering teams to ground design decisions in real user behavior and lived experience.
Photography

I also do corporate headshots.
