What happens when a young person refuses to accept broken systems as “just the way things are”?

In this episode of Baskets of Knowledge, we sit down with Kenisha Mediratta, founder of REdefine Aotearoa, to explore creating support systems, navigating change, and leading through lived experience.

Kenisha shares her journey from growing up in West Auckland public schools to founding a youth-led platform addressing systemic racism and youth mental health. We unpack how anger in young people is often misunderstood, why access and opportunity matter more than punishment, and how real change happens when communities are empowered, not silenced.

This conversation goes beyond inspiration.
It’s about systems, leadership, health, and the courage to ask for help.
