This is my first year sweating
Iโm sweating to challenge myself, boost my wellbeing, and support a great cause!
I'm taking on Sweat with Pride this June! ๐ฆ๐
The world is a scary place right now. LGBTQIA+ Kiwis face higher rates of mental illness and suicide. In the last few years I've been welcomed into our workplace Rainbow whฤnau network and it has meant so much to me to be able to talk and be supported in my journey. Being reassured that my experiences are valid.
So, I'm challenging myself to speak up, step out and get my sweat on โexercising 21 minutes every day in June to raise money for life-changing Rainbow support services.
I really feel this cause can create change, and Iโd be SO grateful if you could chip in to help me reach my goal. Every dollar makes a difference.
Thank you so much for your support! โค๏ธ

Your support means the world โ every donation, every kind word, every bit of encouragement has helped make all the sweat (and sore muscles!) worth it.
Thanks to you, all this effort is going straight into life-changing support for Aotearoaโs Rainbow communities. Youโve helped turn my challenge into something powerful.
Ngฤ mihi nui โ you're a legend!
Crawling out of bed to spend some time in the home gym before starting the day is still going. It's not much but I do feel noticeably better afterwards. Thank you again you lovely people! Keep on sharing to help that donation number overall keep ticking up!
First time going from level 0 to 11 at work using the stairs. My usual is hopping off at level 5. Celebrating becoming a VIB!
I am beyond grateful right now. Iโm so thankful to the sponsors for helping with dollar matching. Weโre so close!! Super motivated to get some powerful sweat going this weekend to boost my hours!
We are just beginning June and I am overwhelmed by the support already received. I understand that it is a hard time for fundraising, with cost of living and other challenges. So I am so thankful for all donations. You are awesome humans!!
Elliptical at home. Glad we are finally making good use of our home gym this year.
June is coming up fast. Iโve been using my Garmin Vivoactive to enter exercise sessions and it seems to work great! Climbing stairs at work doesnโt seem to get any easier but makes me feel good about sitting/standing in one spot at work the rest of the day.
