Push Ups for those in need!

I'm completing 3,307 push-ups in 24 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in the world. 

Since COVID and recent world events, conversations about mental health have become more open, yet a quieter challenge is emerging: unnoticed depression and anxiety. It doesn’t always look like sadness or crisis. Instead, it can show up as low energy, loss of motivation, feeling disconnected, or simply “going through the motions.” Because these signs are subtle, they’re often overlooked—by others and even by ourselves.

This challenge is about pausing, checking in, and reconnecting.

Over the next few days, I will reflect on how we’re really feeling—not just physically, but emotionally and mentally. I’ll notice patterns, identify small warning signs, and build simple habits that support my wellbeing. Most importantly, I’ll be reminded that it’s okay not to feel “back to normal”—and that support, awareness, and small steps can make a meaningful difference.

Let’s bring the unnoticed into the light, together.

Supporting Lifeline

Lifeline is a national charity providing Australians who are experiencing emotional distress access to 24-hour crisis support, suicide prevention, mental health, and domestic and family violence prevention services.

Lifeline exists to ensure that no person in Australia has to face their toughest moments alone.

Our experience has shown us that it is through connection that we can find hope. That’s why we are available 24 hours a day to listen without judgement to anyone in Australia who is feeling overwhelmed, distressed, or experiencing a crisis. Each year, Lifeline receives over 1.3 million contacts to our crisis support services.

By supporting Lifeline, you are ensuring the Lifeline network has the critical technology, resources and people necessary to deliver crisis support, self-led support, and counselling services around the clock.
