Support me as I take on the Gidget 100,000 challenge…

Over the next four weeks, I’m getting active for Gidget House Foundation to raise vital funds for perinatal mental health support and early intervention programs. 


I’m running 100,000 metres (on a treadmill) not in perfect conditions or with childcare in place, but in the cracks of the day, while my little ones are asleep or while they’re with me, finding the moments where I can care for them and care for myself at the same time - a technique I learnt with Gidget House Foundation. 


I’ve always been well-acquainted with anxiety — a real connoisseur, you might say. I’ve sampled the whole buffet. But Perinatal Anxiety was a standout — bold, chaotic, with a lingering aftertaste - pairs well with vintage panic, aged in hormonal barrels 🤣🫠


In Australia, 100,000 parents will be affected by perinatal depression and anxiety (PNDA) every year – that’s 1 in 5 mums and 1 in 10 dads. 


Please donate to help change a life. Every dollar raised will give vulnerable new parents more access to critical services like Gidget House face-to-face counselling and Start Talking telehealth services. 

Together, we can ensure no new parent struggles alone 🫶🏽
