Two Women, One Reason

Two women. one reason. 🖤

For us, this walk is a little personal. Danica lost her brother to suicide. I recently lost my cousin. Two people who were deeply loved. Two losses that left behind a pain that words will never fully explain. We know firsthand that suicide doesn’t just take one life. It leaves an emptiness in families, friendships and hearts that never completely goes away. That is why we’ve decided to take part in One Foot Forward. We’re walking for our brother and our cousin. We’re walking for every person who is silently struggling behind a smile. We’re walking for the families who have already lost someone they love. And we’re walking in the hope that another family never has to experience the heartbreak that ours have. If the funds we raise help one person feel less alone, start one conversation, or give someone the support they need to keep going, then every single step will be worth it. We can’t change what happened to our families. But we can use our loss to stand for something. Two women. Two devastating losses. One reason to keep putting one foot forward. 🖤

Support Our Walk for Mental Health Research

Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians experience a mental illness each year?

This October, our team is taking part in One Foot Forward to help Australians impacted by mental illness and suicide.

We're 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 our walk.

Together, we can create better mental health for all Australians.
