About My Challenge

In 2022, I lost my wife—my best friend, my anchor, and the love of my life. Since then, I've been navigating the deep and often silent struggle of depression. It's a journey I wouldn’t wish on anyone, but it's also one that has shown me the importance of speaking up, staying active, and supporting mental health awareness. That’s why I’m doing the Push-Up Challenge—to honour her memory, to push through the darkness, and to remind others they’re not alone. Every push-up is for the ones we’ve lost, and the ones still fighting.
