One of my main goals for 2023 is to speak as far and as wide as possible 🌎
So last week it was a pleasure to be part of a roadshow with #GuildSuper helping promote a virtual care initiative called ‘360 Health’.
I spoke in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, and it was really cool to be sharing my story across the country.
Excited for WA and Adelaide later this week to finish off the tour 🙌

Today I am thinking of my family and all those that loved, and continue to miss Ty 💙❤️ #10years
10 years ago we had lunch celebrating Tig’s 18th birthday.
Today we caught up and reminisced.
So grateful for these boys, and the men they have become 💙
A very happy little girl, a very relieved and exhausted Santa 😂🏠
Merry Christmas everyone 🙌
Happy birthday @saharmcp_
We are grateful for you, and we love you 🥰
Afternoon spent in the car because it’s late November and still pi$$ing with rain every day 🙃

For many years AFL great Wayne Schwass has been a mental health advocate that I have admired.
He shares his personal struggles on the daily across the country, all in a bid to encourage us to be comfortable sharing and showing our own emotions.
It was an honour to have him attend and speak at our Ball on the weekend.
Thank you @wayneschwass for your time, energy and passion.
And thank you for inspiring me to do what I do 💙

Stay ChatTY Gala Ball #8 💙
Feeling so proud that 9 years on we are still growing, and still so well supported.
Our team work so hard, I’m so grateful for them 🙌

I thoroughly enjoyed being MC for the Old Scholars Football League best and fairest on Friday night.
I’ll let you swipe and see if I’m the angriest to ever do it ☺️

@strong_hobart TOUGH LOVE MONTH challenge kicks off very soon! After meeting the friendly crew and checking out the amazing new studio, I have decided to sign up and give it a crack!
I’m a passionate mental health advocate, and I prioritise my self care every day to stay focused and on top of life’s challenges.
But with kids, travel, and a heavy workload, there’s no doubt that my intensive exercise has gone out the window.
I know the benefits it will bring to my mental health and general well-being to get a bit fitter, so I’m holding myself accountable on social media to help drag my ass through it.
So if your keen to join me and be apart of the STRONG community, the link is in my bio!
Let’s see what we can do in 30 days 🤔💪
#NoMoreDadBod #StrongHobart
Always a pleasure to be part of the @archies100 events 🐻
Happy 10th heavenly birthday Archie, your Mum and Dad are doing you proud! 💚
And just like that my 3 week trip across the USA has come to an end 😢
Words can’t describe how grateful I am to have had this opportunity with an amazing bunch of people from around the globe.
My friends from Bangladesh, Ghana, Angola, Denmark, Tanzania, Suriname, Peru, Philippines, Liberia, African Union and Nicaragua all possess passion, skills, and a genuine drive to make change in their countries when it comes to mental health.
I head home with so many contacts, so much more knowledge, and most importantly I return home reinvigorated and passionate to continue the work I do.
I will miss our group so much, but feel richer for their friendship, and the time we all spent together.
Can’t wait to get home 🇦🇺 ✈️💙

I feel like at times life has certainly thrown me some curve balls, it has also thrown me some amazing opportunities.
Not sure there have been too many as hard as the decision to go on this trip, and potentially miss the birth of our second child.
When @saharmcp_ was all in for me to go, and was adamant this trip was an amazing opportunity I remember not really realising the enormity of what I was choosing to do.
Isaac, our son, was born a week ago, and I sat in my San Diego hotel and watched the birth on zoom. Something I absolutely never ever thought I would do in life.
He will be 12 days old (Monday) when I finally meet him, and at the moment I don’t know whether to laugh or cry when I think about it all…
But what I do know is how grateful I am to my wife. Honestly, what a trooper!!!
I’m grateful to you, as well as to all of those that are helping and continuing to support our family - always!
*** swipe to see when I learnt “it’s a boy!” 😂😭😂😭
See y’all soon 💙
#WashingtonDC ✔️
Lots of exploring, and meetings with incredible organisations in the field of mental health.
And I get to do it with an amazing bunch of people 👊
Off to San Diego ✈️ 🇺🇸
Program officially launched! 👊
12 of us from around the world embarking on 3 weeks of learning, connecting and growing all across the USA 👊
@stateivlp
I know I’m only going for 3 and a bit weeks but the timing of it all has been so hard to comprehend.
I’m so grateful to you @saharmcp_ for all of your love and support. You didn’t flinch when this opportunity came my way, supporting me all the way and assuring me everything will be okay.
I’m going to miss you both (and baby number 2) more than you’ll ever know.
Thanks everyone for the lovely messages of late 💙
✈️ 🇺🇸 ❤️
I am excited to announce that this Friday I head off to the U.S. to take part in an International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP).
Staff in U.S. Embassies around the world select people to take part in IVLP, which is the U.S. Department of State’s premier professional exchange program.
The focus of this program is ‘Innovations in Mental Health, Emotional Care and Wellbeing’. And for 3 weeks I will travel various states and meet with professional counterparts, visit U.S. public and private sector organisations related to mental health, and participate in cultural and social activities.
I am beyond thrilled to have been selected, and will grab this life changing opportunity with both hands to continue my growth and knowledge in the mental health space.
See you all in a month 😊
