A huge thank you to Stef and the team at Jetsetter Travel for sponsoring StrongMind to travel to Townsville for the Healthy Minds NQ Men’s Mental Health Lunch.

Thanks to Stef’s generosity, we were able to join an incredible group of people committed to improving men’s mental health outcomes across North Queensland, contributing as a keynote speaker and panel member alongside other passionate advocates and professionals.

Jetsetter Travel is an award-winning boutique travel agency that specialises in creating unforgettable, bespoke travel experiences tailored to the unique preferences of every client. Their commitment to supporting initiatives that strengthen communities is something to be genuinely proud of.

Thank you, Stef, for backing conversations that matter and helping us continue the work of creating stronger men, healthier families, and better communities.

A huge thank you to ATSICHS Brisbane for inviting StrongMind to deliver our “Working with Men in Cycles of Addiction and Violence” staff development workshop over the past two days.

Together we explored addiction, trauma, accountability, behaviour change, healthy masculinity, and practical ways to better engage men who are often carrying significant shame, anger, and unresolved pain.

Change happens when people are prepared to step into the uncomfortable conversations. The ATSICHS team showed exactly that over the last two days. Their commitment to improving outcomes for men, families, and communities was evident in every discussion we had.

Thank you for having us.

Today we fly to Brisbane to deliver two days of StrongMind staff development workshops for frontline staff at ATSICHS, focusing on how to better engage and work with men experiencing addiction, violence and complex behavioural challenges.

On Wednesday, we head to Townsville where we’ve been invited to deliver the keynote address and join a panel discussion at the Healthy Minds NQ Men’s Mental Health Lunch, sharing insights from the frontline of men’s mental health, addiction and behaviour change.

From there, it’s straight back on a plane to Broken Hill and Wilcannia to continue delivering our StrongMind in-community AOD and Men’s Behaviour Rehabilitation Program in partnership with Maari Ma Health.

The next two weeks will involve plenty of airports, kilometres and long days, but we’re incredibly grateful for the opportunity to do this work alongside communities and services across the country.

Every workshop, every conversation and every partnership is another opportunity to support men, strengthen families and create safer homes and communities.

Grateful for the opportunities.

The work continues. 🙏🏽

Meaningful partnerships and
One mission that hasn’t shifted once.

And we’re only just getting started.

Thank you to every man who’s walked through the door, every partner who’s backed the vision, and every brother who’s chosen to do the hard work.

Massive thank you to Yoorana Gunya Family Healing Centre Aboriginal Corporation for hosting us on Friday to facilitate a men’s workshop in Forbes.

We genuinely love being invited into communities to hold space for men to have honest conversations, get vulnerable, unpack what’s really going on beneath the surface, and connect with other men who may be walking a similar path.

Too often men carry stress, anger, grief, addiction, pressure and responsibility in silence. Creating spaces where men can speak openly, be heard without judgement, and realise they’re not alone is some of the most important work we get to be part of.

Thanks again to the team for trusting us.

We look forward to continuing to support men, strengthen families, and build healthier communities together.

StrongMind 🧡
