This week on the S4E Podcast, Tobi, Zara, and Tyren join us for a thoughtful and honest conversation about work, responsibility, personal growth, and navigating the challenges of the modern world. Making their on-camera debut, interns Tobi and Tyren share what life has been like stepping into employment at S4E, balancing responsibilities, building confidence, and learning what it means to be part of a workplace team. Zara also returns to the podcast following last week’s powerful interview with Inspector Paul Gauci. For the first time in S4E Podcast history, everyone at the table is employed, leading to an open discussion about the realities of working life. The pressures, expectations, challenges, and also the positives that come with earning independence and contributing to something meaningful.

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.
