Ep. 36 - Interviewing Inspector Paul Gauci with Zara & Felix

This week on the S4E Podcast, Felix and Zara sit down with special guest Inspector Paul Gauci, a highly respected member of the Victorian Police Force with over 40 years of experience across frontline operations, investigations, and leadership roles. From major disaster response efforts including Black Saturday, the 2020 Bushfires, and COVID-19, to high-pressure operations like the Australian Open Quarantine and Public Order Response Teams, Paul shares insights from a career built on resilience, service, and leadership. In this episode, we explore the real human side of policing, the sacrifices made behind the scenes, the moments that define a career, and the challenges that can push even the strongest people to their limits. Paul reflects on what it takes to lead under pressure, how he has navigated difficult and confronting situations, and the importance of mental health, support systems, and self-awareness in such a demanding role. Felix and Zara also step in with thoughtful and curious questions, diving into what it really takes to build a career in policing, the realities of leadership versus frontline work, and the lessons learned along the way. The conversation touches on public perceptions of police, the evolving nature of crime, and what it truly means to make a difference in people’s lives. Balancing depth with lighter moments, this episode offers a rare and honest look into a career many people see, but few fully understand.

Ep. 35 - Culture Shock with Abby, Alyssa & Felix

This week on the S4E Podcast, Abby, Alyssa and Felix (and Tobi... technically) come together for another episode as we settle into our new podcast studio at the Westall Community Hub. We catch up with Felix, who has stepped into an internship roles at S4E. Alyssa returns to the mic with updates on her pop choir journey and childcare role, while Abby reflects on her growth as a second-year participant and how this year compares to last. The group then dives into a mix of light and deeper conversations, from weekend plans and what makes a good break, to exploring our new studio space and how it’s changing the feel of the podcast. We also chat about travel and culture shock, sparked by a recent trip to Japan, and how stepping outside your comfort zone can shift your perspective. From there, the conversation turns to the small things that bring us joy, and whether simple purchases can genuinely boost our mood. To wrap things up, each participant reflects on a goal they’re currently working towards, what inspired it, and what success might look and feel like when they get there.
