I walk for you — because you matter too.
I walk for those days that feel too heavy, when getting through the day feels impossible and hour-by-hour is all we can manage. I walk so that someone, even a complete stranger, might feel seen and supported.
I walk for my family, my friends, and my community — for the people I know are struggling, and for those who suffer in silence. I walk to remind them that they are not alone.
I walk for my children, so they grow up knowing that it’s okay to ask for help, that reaching out is a sign of strength, not weakness.
I've lived with various mental health challenges for years — some days, they’re debilitating. If raising awareness through One Foot Forward helps even one person feel less alone, then every step is worth it.
I walk for those who feel like a burden, for the ones drowning in their lowest moments, for the people who isolate themselves out of fear or shame. I walk for better awareness, better support, and a better future.
And I walk for you — because you matter too.
I’m walking in solidarity this October for Australians affected by mental illness and suicide. You are not alone.
