Support my walk for mental health research

Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians experience a mental illness each year? This October, I’m taking part in One Foot Forward to help Australians impacted by mental illness and suicide. I'm walking to raise funds for Black Dog Institute to put ground-breaking new mental health treatment, education, and digital services into the hands of the people who need them most. It would mean so much to me if you donated to support my walk. Together, we can create better mental health for all Australians.

150km. in october. what was i thinking?!

Apparently, after everything this year has thrown at me, I thought the sensible next step was to walk 150 bloody kilometres for mental health. 🤣 But here’s the thing… I’ve had a year of big changes, unexpected goodbyes and a few moments where I felt like I was losing my way. I’ve had to let go of parts of my old life, navigate some loss, grief and uncertainty, step away from self medicating to cope, do some seriously deep therapy and start rebuilding my life from the inside out. It’s been messy. It’s been emotional. It’s been uncomfortable. But it’s also been transformative. ❤️ And I’ve learnt something… You don't have to have your shit together to keep moving forward. Sometimes you just put one foot in front of the other. 👣 So that’s exactly what I’m doing. 150km for Black Dog Institute. 🖤🐕‍🦺 If you’d like to help me turn all those steps into something meaningful, throw a few dollars into my fundraiser. 💰 Buy me a kilometre. 👣 Buy me two. 😂 Or donate enough to keep my complaining to a minimum! Every dollar helps support better mental health outcomes. And if you can't donate, that's okay — send me some bloody encouragement because 150km is A LOT of bloody steps! 😂 One foot. One step. One day at a time. Here’s to finding my way forward. 🌈🖤👣
