This is my 1st
year sweating

I’m sweating to challenge myself, boost my wellbeing, and support a great cause!

Why I’m Sweating with Pride

Our public Healthcare system is in crisis mode. Everyone except the ultra-wealthy are suffering from longer waiting times for basic services, appointments and procedures being canceled or postponed due to a critical lack of staffing and Healthcare staff are burnt out, frustrated and devestated that they don't have the resources to provide the care that our country needs.
But who are among the most likely to be discriminated against in a Healthcare setting? LGBTQIA+ folk
What community has high rates of mental illness, suicide and sexual health issues but has more barriers to life saving, culturally safe, affirming care? 
The Queer community. 
So what are we gonna do about it? 
Sweat. 

As a nurse, a Mum, an ally, a bisexy girly and just a straight up decent human I want to see a better future for every single kiwi - no matter who they fricking love!!!! 
Also love a bloody workout so why would ya not. 

Anyway, please donate. Pay your mortgage/rent/other bills, buy groceries, fill up ya tanks (good luck), get yourself a coffee but then maybe skip the extra slice at Coffee Culture just the once and donate to this very important cause instead? 
Ngā mihi nui, 
Rosie ✨

I signed up at like 8pm last night and by 5.30am this morning so many lovely people had donated I was already more than half way to my $500 goal so I've decided to go balls to the wall and up the fundraising goal to $1000 and since I'm asking for double I'm doing double, I've upped my activity goal to 42 min a day which I suspect is gonna mean a lot of early morning living room workouts and late night yoga seshs 😉
