Youth unemployment in the UK stands at around 14 per cent, with nearly a million young people not in education, employment or training. In this episode, we hear from young people Aaron, Maya and Marcus about the reality of trying to find work. We also hear from practitioners Nike Oruh from Edinburgh Napier University and Karolyn Daye-Collis from All Minds.

From the pressure to know what you want at high school, to the psychological toll of rejection and silence, we explore what the path from education to employment actually feels like. We ask why careers guidance so often misses the mark, what barriers young people are really up against, and what would actually help.
