My Why....
My why is the three young adults who fill our home with laughter, hope and, at times, heartache.
As a mum, there is nothing more important to me than seeing them happy, healthy and believing in their own worth. Like so many families, we've faced mental health challenges, and I've witnessed just how difficult those struggles can be. I've also seen the incredible difference that love, understanding and honest conversations can make.
Taking part in the 20Talk Challenge is deeply personal. It's for the moments when someone feels overwhelmed but doesn't know how to ask for help. It's for the parents lying awake at night wishing they could take away their child's pain. And it's for every young person who needs to hear that they are not alone and that their life matters.
I hope that my participation in this challenge encourages just one person to start a conversation, check in on someone they care about, or reach out for support if they need it.
