What if confidence could be built through conversation? Not through worksheets.
Not through theory. But through voice. That question led to the creation of the S4E Podcast — a platform where young people are given space to speak, reflect, and grow.
Many young people transitioning from school into employment don’t struggle with ability — they struggle with communication confidence. Workplaces require clear communication:
Without confidence in voice, employment feels intimidating. So instead of just teaching communication…
We created a space to practice it.
Our series Real Talk, Real People is unscripted and participant-led. Each episode helps young people:
It’s structured skill development — disguised as conversation. And listeners can hear the transformation.
Before recording, many participants hesitate. By the end?
Voices strengthen.
Ideas flow.
Posture shifts. Confidence grows through repeated, supported exposure. The podcast provides:✔ Equal speaking time
✔ Encouragement without pressure
✔ Guided reflection
✔ A safe environment to grow Over time, participants begin to believe their voice matters.
The S4E Podcast directly supports SLES outcomes by building:
When participants attend job interviews or workplace trials, they’re not speaking under pressure for the first time. They've practiced.
They’ve developed resilience.
They’ve found their voice.
