Why I’m Sweating with Pride

It's me again! I’m taking on Sweat with Pride this June to raise money for our queer community 💦🌈

Our schools, workplaces, and doctors’ offices are still not safe places for so many rainbow folk, resulting in higher rates of poor mental health, bullying, and discriminatory practices in healthcare and other parts of their lives. I know! I've been there!

So, this June I’m fighting discrimination with perspiration, and I've committed to exercising for at least 42 minutes EVERY DAY to raise money to support my community.

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 mental, physical and sexual health services for rainbow people in Aotearoa.

My Impact

So far in this year’s challenge I have…

Unlocked three counselling sessions for someone struggling with their identity or sexual health.

Light Cycles

Friday 7th Jun

Took a walk around the botanical gardens tonight for Light Cycles (if you're in Wellington I recommend checking it out!!!) and finished off with a decent walk back uphill, so got decently sweaty 🥵

First day!

Saturday 1st Jun

Righty righty, first day of Sweat With Pride! Unfortunately I'm kind of recovering from a minor injury that means I can't lift heavy like normal (good form doesn't mean anything if you're not breathing right...) so most of the first week is gonna be walking and my physiotherapy follow ups. But InsideOUT has a big awesome team this year!!! Let's get into it 💦
