Episode notes

In this episode, we chat with Scarlett, Youth Ambassador to the Board, about her journey from getting involved as a young person to having a real voice at board level. Scarlett shares what inspired her to step up, how she’s grown in confidence along the way, and what it’s really like being a young person in leadership spaces.

We also dive into Scarlett’s incredible Canoe Challenge, where she pushed herself physically and mentally to raise funds and awareness. She talks honestly about the motivation behind the challenge, the highs and lows of fundraising, and what it meant to see the support roll in.

This is a feel-good, inspiring conversation about determination, youth power, and proving that young people can make a huge impact — whether that’s in the boardroom or out on the water.
