What’s Your Favorite Part?

Xandra Robinson-Burns and her sister Junie Burns talk character development and the wisdom in what we watch for fun. After every trip to the movies, since approximately age 10, Junie has asked ‘What’s your favorite part?’. Intense, enthusiastic discussion ensues. They cover female-centric and feel-good films and tv, with a gentle focus on representation. Some all-time favorites include: ‘High School Musical: The Musical: The Series’ (HSMTMTS) on Disney+, ‘Emily in Paris’ and ‘To All the Boys’ (TATBILB) on Netflix, and more. A Heroine Training Podcast.
