About

Built to help families ask better questions and feel closer across generations

Learn About Me began after Omar Kinnear experienced the regret of unanswered questions after losing his dad. That personal story shaped the mission, but the product today is about something broader and lighter: helping families get to know each other better through questions, listening and sharing.

Why Omar created Learn About Me

Omar Kinnear has shared openly that this platform was born from a deeply personal moment: realising there were stories he would never get to ask his dad about. That experience shaped a simple mission: make it easier for families to start meaningful conversations before they stay stuck as good intentions.

Learn About Me gives families thoughtful questions, a low-pressure pace, and a finished keepsake that helps a parent's voice stay present long after the first conversation begins.

What we want the experience to feel like

  • Curious, not emotionally heavy.
  • Structured enough to keep going, without feeling rigid.
  • Personal enough that the storyteller still sounds like themselves.
  • Meaningful enough to become more than a once-off gift.

A starting point that suits the person

A comfortable starting point can make sharing feel easier. Guided Life Story offers questions and themed chapters. Tell It Your Way offers individual stories from a memory of your own, with optional guidance and separate access.

For stories about someone from a group, Tribute brings family and friends together. Choose the approach that helps you begin comfortably. Explore Tell It Your Way or guided Life Story.

What families can trust about the experience

Learn About Me is built for real family use, not for polished writers. The storyteller stays at the centre, the final outcome becomes a readable digital keepsake, and the product is designed to help one person's voice come through clearly rather than flattening it into generic text.

We also keep the tone intentionally warm and grounded because this work should feel inviting through everyday curiosity and conversation.

Give a parent a gift that opens better conversations

Learn About Me makes it easier for a parent to share more of who they are, in their own voice and in their own time.
