Voice, Power and Practice with Jade Barnett, CEO of Power2Prevail

In this episode, I’m joined by Power 2 Prevail to explore what it really means to work with young people, not just around them. We talk about the power of youth work, how professional hierarchies can silence lived experience, and why “listening” isn’t the same as genuine inclusion. Together, we explore how care-experienced young people can and should shape training, learning and development, not as a token gesture, but as valued experts in their own lives. This conversation is about power, voice, and what changes when we take young people seriously in practice, in systems, and in ourselves.

In this episode, I’m joined by Power 2 Prevail to explore what it really means to work with young people, not just around them.

We talk about the power of youth work, how professional hierarchies can silence lived experience, and why “listening” isn’t the same as genuine inclusion.

Together, we explore how care-experienced young people can and should shape training, learning and development, not as a token gesture, but as valued experts in their own lives.

This conversation is about power, voice, and what changes when we take young people seriously in practice, in systems, and in ourselves.
