A quiet space for something so loud.
On 6 September I’ll be sitting in silence as part of the 20 Hours for 20Talk fundraising event at Claremont Showgrounds in Perth.
No phone, no distractions, just me, a chair, a cosy blanket, a book, a pen, and time to reflect.
This isn’t just a challenge. It’s something that's deeply personal to me.
Over the years, I’ve lost my auntie, three friends, and heartbreakingly, came close to losing my sister.
These losses changed everything. Not a day goes by that I don’t wonder what more could’ve been done, if they’d felt safe enough to speak up, if the silence hadn’t felt so heavy.
I’m taking on this challenge to honour the memory of those I’ve lost and to acknowledge the weight of the silence they carried. It’s a step outside my comfort zone and a way of standing in solidarity with anyone who feels like they are battling alone. No one should ever have to carry that kind of pain in isolation.
I hope to help break the silence, open up space for honest conversations, and remind people that support is always within reach. I simply cannot face losing any more family or friends to this.
With Love
