Well, as I said once before, I don't make these things up.

and I do remember it...but I don't think it meant that Josette no longer had any power. It strikes me as a speech of a defiance rather than a statement of fact.
I agree - I don't believe Barnabas actually removed any of Josette's ghost's actual power. But at the same time I do believe she took his words to heart and abandoned the Old House (at least as her seat of power) and her place as the Collins family protector as she never again tries to protect anyone but Barn. :-

Also, I get the impression that during that episode, the story was that Josette was already a ghost when Barnabas became a vampire, and that in fact he had never known her personally - although I think it unlikely that that's what the writers meant.
Art Wallace's backstory for Barn had already been written before he ever made his appearance on the show, so the writers were already fully aware of Barn's relationship to Josette, even though the audience was not.
