Why I’m Sweating with Pride

I’m taking on Sweat with Pride this June to raise money for our rainbow communities! 💦🌈

Our schools, workplaces, and doctors’ offices are still not safe places for many rainbow folk and it’s putting lives at risk.

Almost 3 million Australians identify as LGBTQIA+. However, despite significant progress, our communities are far from equal. Our communities have the highest rates of suicidality compared with any other populations in Australia, and less than 50% of rainbow youth feel safe at school. Things need to change.

So, this June I’m fighting discrimination with perspiration, and I've committed to exercising for at least 21 minutes EVERY DAY to raise money to support Australia's LGBTQIA+ communities.

This cause means a lot to me. I’d be SO GRATEFUL if you could chip in to help me reach my goal. Every dollar I raise will fund life-changing support services for Australia's rainbow communities.

Thank you sooooo much ❤️

After a two hour walk through an off road track, through creeks, rocks, called trees, heavy inclines, and a bit of a rock climb at the end for a cliff view! All done to get my minutes in for sweat for pride ! 27-06-25

From my walk in Kuipto forest apart of my minutes towards sweat for pride, I found beautiful moss patches covered in the rain of the night before, the dew sitting unsettled and beautiful.

Things I’ll be doing

Hey guys! I really want to commit to not only the challenge but sharing my progress and fundraiser as much as I can to help this cause; I’ll be foraging and hiking in mountains and hiking trails, looking at beautiful scenes and really soaking it in. I’m ready 🥰
