About My Challenge
Year 5.
I take on the Push-Up Challenge every year (minus a hiatus in 2024) to help raise funds for mental health. I’m doing it for the people we’ve lost, for those still fighting, and for me.
A couple of years ago, I was in a really rough place. Toward the end of the Push-Up Challenge, I found myself struggling to even get out of bed. My friends and family did my push-ups with me from around the country. They helped me finish the challenge — and reminded me I wasn’t alone.
This year has been big, exciting, heavy, and overwhelming (all things, all at once) — and I’ve been okay. Not perfect. Not invincible. But okay. I’ve felt supported, connected, and grateful to be here.
I’m hoping the challenge will be the push I need to start focusing on my physical wellbeing again.
If you’re able to donate, you’ll help keep me motivated — and that’s a personal win. But more importantly, you’ll be supporting Lifeline to continue their vital work in crisis support and suicide prevention.

Supporting Lifeline
Lifeline exists to ensure no person in Australia has to face their toughest moments alone.
Our crisis support services are available 24/7 to listen, without judgement, to any person in Australia who is feeling overwhelmed, experiencing crisis or longs to be heard.
Experience shows us it is through connection that we can find hope. With Australians struggling with cost-of-living pressures, increasing inflation, housing insecurity, global instability, and recovery after extreme weather events, our crisis support services have remained in high demand with our voice and text services receiving up to 4,000 contacts a day from help seekers. Our partnership with The Push Up Challenge plays a vital role in raising funds to support the delivery of suicide prevention and crisis support services at a time where we have never been needed more.
Thank you for supporting Lifeline. Your fundraising is helping to save lives.
