My Pushup Challenge - Double or Nothing
💪 I’m Taking The Push For Better Challenge To The Next Level!
Those who know me will tell you I enjoy a good challenge, so when I heard about the Push For Better Challenge—3,307 push-ups in 24 days, I decided to raise the bar and double it.
That means over the next 24 days, I’ll be completing 6,614 push-ups in support of mental health awareness and fundraising across Australia.
I've also set myself an ambitious goal of raising $5,000 for this incredibly important cause.
Mental health is something that touches all of us in one way or another. For me, this challenge is deeply personal. I lost one of my closest friends to mental health struggles, and it’s a loss that has stayed with me ever since. If taking on this challenge can help start conversations, raise awareness, and support services that make a difference, then every push-up will be worth it.
I’ll be sharing the highs, lows, sore muscles, and progress throughout the challenge on my Instagram stories, so feel free to follow along:

Thank you for your support, encouragement, and generosity.
