So yes I’m in Tahiti on holiday, and No that doesn’t mean I’m taking a sweat break. It’s weird that it’s even more motivating in another country to get my hours in. Fresh view, different language and culture, but the same cause. Our 🌈 community where ever in the world we might reside will always need support. My why is more than just a fundraising challenge in NZ with work, but a conscious decision to making a difference wherever I am in the world however I can, with whatever I have, and it starts with the man in the mirror….. make that change.
This is my third year sweating
I’m sweating to take a stand against discrimination and create real change
Why I’m Sweating with Pride
I'm taking on Sweat with Pride this June! 💦🌈
Right now, schools, workplaces, and even doctors’ offices aren’t safe for many in our community—and it’s putting lives at risk. LGBTQIA+ Kiwis face higher rates of mental illness, suicide, and STIs like syphilis, mpox, and HIV.
So, I'm fighting discrimination with perspiration—exercising 21 minutes every day in June to raise money for life-changing Rainbow support services.
This cause means the world to me, and I’d 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! ❤️

It’s only week one and geez there are a lot of mins being pumped out by a lot of Betty’s out there it’s nutz! So I’m doing my best to keep up with most days having to do 3 sessions! I’m going to be ripped after this month! On a serious note how amazing are all the schools, workplaces and social groups doing! This amazing mahi is motivating me for sure and hopefully I can motivate at least one person to join the cause. Until the next blog. ;)
So the official season is soon upon us when the sweat goal resets and everyone will be up and at em, getting their sweat and fundraising on. One way to stay motivated personally, is finding your fam. Work fam, club fam, gym fam, or your actual fam lol. Last night I joined the AA Insurance run club and enjoyed the chat & group vibe all while taking in the harbour views and getting some Kms in. It was enjoyable and felt like it was all over before it had begun. Yall do you and find your Fam this June!
Hey everyone, So I've recommitted myself this year to have a good go at Fundraising for a great cause & getting people motivated to participate including myself. I've started back swimming in the pool as well as gym each day and the body HURTS like HELL. BUT I know its all going to be worth it and will keep you all in formed along the way. In 2 days I've motivated 8 people to join so far and cant wait to see how big the team grows as the team does so will the VIBE!!! stay tuned!!!!!
