I have to try otherwise I will regret it.......for the rest of my life......๐๐ญโฃ
โฃ
This is a massive vulnerable moment for me... Because I have never done this before, and it's uncomfortable ๐โฃ
โฃ
I know I cannot do this alone..So I am here putting myself out there to ask for community support. ๐๐ฝโฃ
โฃ
I am not sure if you know, but earlier this month I auditioned for The International Legacy Pageant in Sydney, July 10th-11th, 2025.โฃ
โฃ
It only felt right that I give it a go, and the reason why was that it would be a great opportunity to continue my advocacy work and spread my message out there to the world to champion the following: โฃ
โฃ
โ
Raise Awareness for better care and support for those who've experienced a TBI, Traumaticโฃ
โ
Provide World-Class Leadership Programs focused on empowering the Youth, because they are our future leadersโฃ
โ
Brain Injury and Head Injuries, due to Family and Domestic Violence.โฃ
โ
Be a voice for those who are yet to discover who they are authentically, to be Audacious, raw, and courageousโฃ
โ
Create Intergenerational Wealth through Business Leadership โฃ
โฃ
So here goes! ๐ฅโฃ
โฃ
I am so honoured to announce ๐ข I was successful! I was invited to compete! โฃ
And now I am going to Nationals, but there's 1๏ธโฃ problem. โฃ
โฃ
I won't be able to unless I raise the funds because I took 10 months off working, I lost my confidence, stopped caring for myself, and fell into a depressive cycle. I just needed time off to reset and recalibrate for what's to come this year and 2026. I have many big plans to impact the communities I am in. โฃ
โฃ
My WHY behind entering this Pageant has never been clearer.โฃ
- I dedicate this to the Women who've lost their lives due to Domestic and Family violenceโฃ
- I dedicate this to my mob and my community - If I can do this, so can you! โฃ
- I dedicate this to the people who've experienced a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) like myself, who, been influenced to feel inadequate or disabled from the medical diagnosis limitations and stigma we have experienced. โฃ
โฃ
My message - "The trauma that you've experienced does not define you." โฃ
โฃ
My purpose here on planet earth is to be the beacon of HOPE that people seek, and this goes out to those who are yet to discover who they are authentically and unleash their inner power! โฃ
โฃ
Furthermore,โฃ
I discovered that I am the very 1st Aboriginal Woman๐ค๐โค๏ธ to enter the International Legacy Pageant, which is a milestone achievement in itself.๐โฃ
โฃ
So I will you stand beside me in this journey? โฃ
โฃ
Let's create history together!โฃ
