As part of our International Women’s Day celebrations, our student leaders shared powerful excerpts from the podcast interviews they recorded with an extraordinary group of change-makers.
The podcast project, created in partnership with Ralph Barba from LIVE FM and delivered as part of the Wellbeing Program at Star, gave students the opportunity to develop their interviewing skills, explore the power of their own voices, and engage in thoughtful conversations with inspiring leaders.
The result was a series of insightful and thought-provoking interviews with:
• Jaimee Krawitz – Founder and CEO, Hide N Seek Foundation
• Madeleine Buchner OAM – Founder and CEO, Little Dreamers
• Dr Chelsea Hyde – Psychologist and Senior Lecturer in Educational Psychology, University of Melbourne
• Paulie Stewart – Australian singer-songwriter and advocate for the freedom of East Timor and West Papua
• Tess Lloyd – Australian Olympian (2020) and Star of the Sea Class of 2013
Sharing these conversations with our Year 11 and Year 12 students was a powerful way to mark International Women’s Day – highlighting leadership, resilience, advocacy and the importance of using your voice to create change.
We invite the Star Community to enjoy these incredibly inspiring podcasts here.
