We're on a mission to create a mentally healthier and conscious world!
Mental illness affects 1 in 5 Australians every year, with the most common being depression and anxiety.
Mental illness doesn’t discriminate and right now, during COVID, many more beautiful humans are being deeply effected.
We're standing up to partner with Team Black Dog to turn ground breaking research into life saving action.
It affects people from all walks of life — individuals, families, workplaces and communities.
Shan has overcome anxiety in her earlier 20's and Post Natal Depression with both her children.
We have family who are suffering from depression and close friends who lost their battle to mental illness through suicide.
Please jump on board with us!
Whether it is as simple as sharing this page, shouting us out on IG @realworldcouple or donating to support the cause we are so grateful and so are the recipients of these funds.
Let's make a difference, together!
If you are keen to jump ALL IN with us, we'd love to have you on our Team on the outside of Quarantine!
Can you commit to 1-2-3km per day running, walking, biking or swimming?
If so, let us know and we will add you to our Real World Couple TEAM.
The more the merrier and more the impact and lives we will change.
As a Team, we have set the goal of raising $10,000 by the end of March 2021.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch with us and you can reach us faster through a DM on IG.
Thank you so much!
Shan, Drax and those who will benefit from these funds and awareness raised.
My Updates
THE POLARITY OF LIFE.
Monday 29th Mar
Literally, the day our ride was due to begin.
Managing our emotions was of top priority and the ride helped to keep us moving and keep the energy in our hotel apartment elevated, despite the sadness, anger, unknowns and longing to be on the outside with family.
Mental Health is everywhere.
It does not discriminate, it effects many people in our lives and most of the time, we do not even know.
I want to normalize what humans go through.
I want to normalize that because of the pressure from society and social media these days, mental health needs more awareness brought to it.
Please support our RIDE FOR MENTAL HEALTH, even if all you can do today is share our page on your FB.
