Today’s guest is Ruby O’Brien — an advocate for real change, someone who refuses to accept the limits placed in front of her. She’s passionate about representing young people, especially those from areas where expectations are quietly capped and opportunities feel distant.

Ruby opens up about the upbringing that shaped her — becoming a young carer at a young age, taking on responsibility early, and growing up in one of the most deprived areas in the UK. We talk about the pressure of that role, the lack of visible role models, and why she’s driven to be the person she once needed herself.

We dive into how she sees life now: not as something to survive, but something to shape.

Where goals become habits, and circumstances don’t get the final say.

Ruby also shares her experience of being part of Youth Parliament — challenging stereotypes, navigating public judgement, and proving that where you’re from doesn’t dictate where you can go.

We talk about identity, social media, and vulnerability — the pressure of being visible, the difficulty of accepting praise, and why showing up as your true self matters more than perfection.

This episode is about voice, responsibility, and breaking ceilings.

A real, honest conversation with someone who’s choosing purpose over limitation.

A huge thank you to Ruby for opening up and sharing her story with so much honesty.
