Everyday in Australia, around 9 lives are lost due to suicide. Mental health isn’t something we can switch on and off. It’s something we need to work on, nurture, and prioritise, every single day. That’s why this May, I’m doing 9000 steps a day with LIVIN to honour those lives, raise awareness, and help bring mental health into everyday conversation.

The LIVIN Better Challenge is about showing up daily, moving my body, checking in with myself, and being more intentional about my wellbeing. Walking 9,000 steps a day is achievable, but still meaningful, especially when paired with one simple daily commitment, whether that’s connecting with someone, learning something new, creating, or allowing myself proper rest.

By fundraising through the LIVIN Better Challenge, we can help support LIVIN’s mental health education programs for young people across Australia. Programs that start conversations early, break stigma, and give young people the tools and confidence to ask for help when they need it most. 

If you’d like to support my journey, or take on the challenge yourself, I’d love for you to join me. Let’s walk, reflect, fundraise, and LIVIN Better, together
