Episode 45: Amplifying Student Voice in Schools (Live at NASP 2026)

Send a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/tex...) This special episode was recorded live at the National Association of School Psychologists 2026 Annual Convention in Chicago. What happens when student voice is not extracted but trusted? What shifts when adults move from manager to learner? Based on my paper, Amplifying Child Voice Through Intergenerational Storytelling and Reflection, this live conversation blends research, storytelling, audience engagement, and Emma’s now-famous “Chicken Nugget Wisdom” to demonstrate a model of healing-centered, culturally responsive SEL practice. This is not a performative conversation about student voice. It is a lived demonstration of it. Chapters 04:20 — Rapid Fire Emotions School psychologists name the emotions they hide at work. 08:20 — Adults as Robots What is lost when professionals suppress emotion? What is the cost to creativity, belonging, and humanity? 10:50 — Protecting Black Girl Joy A conversation about adultification, safety, and cultural armoring. 13:09 — Student Voice vs Performative Listening When is voice real and when is it tokenized? 14:23 — The 3D Power Framework Discovery. Discernment. Devotion. A scaffold for shifting adult stance and centering youth wisdom. 28:23 — Black Barbie & The Solar System Emma’s metaphor: Who is positioned as the sun? Who is required to orbit? 32:04 — Redesigning the System What would it take to build schools where more students are centered? 40:19 — Beyond Compliance to Change Moving from mandatory voice to meaningful systems transformation. Emma closes with this: “Listen to kids more. They have a lot of wisdom.” Connect with Me: Instagram: @natural_inclination (  / natural_inclination  ) Youtube: @naturalinclination (   / @naturalinclination  ) TikTok: Amber Sessoms (https://open.substack.com/users/12580...)
