Never apologise for becoming a better version of yourself.

Be proud of the discipline, the sacrifices, the early mornings and the battles nobody sees.

You're not showing off. You're showing what consistency, determination and hard work can achieve.

It can be a tough and treacherous road, but fuxk it's worth it.

You've earned the right to be proud of your progress. 💪

Parenthood is peak...

But it also has valleys...

Both are required...

Its a part of the journey.

Struggling in silence doesn’t make you stronger. Reaching out does.

You don’t have to have the right words. Just start with, “I’m not okay.”

Someone will listen. Someone will care. Reach out.

There is a beautiful life waiting for you on the other side of your fears.

First off: F**K ALCOHOL!! 🖕🍺

Today was the final day of the Push-Up Challenge, and to be honest... I left myself a mountain to climb because the last couple of weeks have been challenging for me to say the least.

People tell me, "3,307 push-ups sounds hard."

They're right—it is.

But you know what's a lot fu***ng harder?

Getting a phone call that someone you love has taken their own life.

I'll take the push-ups every single fu***ng time.

I still had 939 push-ups to complete before midnight tonight.

Instead of making excuses, I got to work.

Ffrom 7:30pm to 10:30pm, I'd knocked out 1,010 push-ups amd around 50 of those were while wearing a 16kg weight vest. Once I reached 1,000, I kept going until I physically couldn't do another rep.

This challenge has never been about proving anything to anyone else. It's about proving something to myself while helping start conversations that too many people still avoid.

On the 18th of June I also celebrated 4 years of sobriety. Looking back, it's hard to believe how much can change when you commit to showing up, one day at a time.

To everyone who took part in this year's challenge, donated, supported, checked in on a mate, or simply kept fighting their own battles—thank you. Every rep mattered. Every conversation mattered.

Mental health doesn't discriminate. Check in on your mates. Ask the hard questions. Listen without judgment. You never know what someone is carrying.

Keep showing up.
Keep doing the work.
Because the push-ups were never the hardest part.

Today’s push-up target is 120, reflecting research that found a 12% increase in cognitive ability among older adults who learned new skills.  

Research shows that taking up new skills later in life can improve memory and thinking, helping to keep the brain engaged and functioning well as we age.  

Learning helps the brain grow and adapt by making new connections. This flexibility supports brain health and has been linked to improved mental wellbeing, confidence and happiness, as well as greater social connection and a sense of purpose.  

Easy ways to keep learning 

🧠 Try something unfamiliar – learning a language, instrument or creative skill can challenge your brain. 
🌱 Start small – short, regular practice is enough to support brain health. 
📚 Make it enjoyable – choosing skills you enjoy helps learning stick.

Today’s push-up target is 191, reflecting that adolescents with parents who show warmth, encouragement and positive emotions are 1.91 times more likely to maintain good mental health.

Adolescence is a time of major emotional, social and brain development. How emotions are expressed at home plays an important role in shaping a young person’s sense of safety, belonging and emotional wellbeing during this period of change.

A supportive home environment - where positive emotions are expressed through words, actions and body language - can help adolescents build resilience, regulate emotions and develop healthy coping strategies. Parents don’t need to be perfect; small, consistent moments of warmth and encouragement can have a lasting impact.

Tips for parents

💬 Show warmth – kind words, encouragement and interest help young people feel valued.
🤝 Practise active listening – give full attention and validate feelings.
🌱 Model healthy coping – showing how you manage emotions teaches lifelong skills.
❤️ Remember, progress over perfection – consistency matters more than getting it right every time.
