Huge shout out to Martha! 🎉

Martha joined our Allied Health Empowered Program in August and rated it 10/10. Now she’s a couple of weeks into her first ever warehouse job.

“I’ve never worked in a warehouse before, so it can be a bit confusing, but I’m slowly getting the hang of things! I do feel a lot more confident!”

New place, new skills, and she’s backing herself every day. That’s exactly what we love to see 💪

So proud of you, Martha!

Three women. 24 hours. Here in NSW. 💔
Our hearts are with their families and everyone who loved them.
If you're a woman who has lived through violence, we want you to hear this: what happened to you was never your fault. And your story isn't over.
Rebuilding your confidence, your independence and your sense of who you are takes time. You don't have to do it alone. 💜
If you need support right now, call 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732. In an emergency, call 000.
Please share this. Someone in your circle may need to see it today.

R U OK? Day was last week. Mental Health Month starts 1 October.
The weeks in between are the ones that count. 💙
Checking in on someone is not a once a year thing, and neither is mental health. We see it every cohort. The moment someone works out they are not the only person in the room who has been struggling.
One participant told us she had forgotten how to be happy. Two half days later she was laughing with strangers who had become something else.
Ask someone how they are really going this week. Then ask again next week.

$4.7 billion in new funding for gender-based violence services was announced last week. Real money, and a real commitment.
Here is what we think about at KICKS Empowered. 1.6 million Australian women have experienced economic abuse from a partner. Safety and financial independence are not two separate conversations. They are the same one.
Our Women's Confidence and Empowerment Mentoring Program is for women who are rebuilding. Not talking about rebuilding. Doing it, over two half days, with qualified allied health practitioners in the room.
One participant told us she had not smiled in months. She left laughing.
If you support women who are ready for that, call us on 1800-4-KICKS.

A lot of the people we meet have already told their story more times than they can count. 💬
Sometimes what helps next isn't another conversation. It's an experience.
Across two half-days, our program gets people up, moving, laughing and trying things alongside others who understand. No pressure to retell anything. Just a chance to find out what you're capable of, by doing it. 💪
We call it tools, not answers. Because when you discover your strength for yourself, nobody can take it away.
And people stay for it. 93% of participants complete the program, and they rate it 9.37 out of 10. 💙

It's rarely one big knock that wears you down. 💙
It's the small ones that stack up. The plan that fell through. The door that closed. The reply that never came.
One is easy to shake off. A run of them starts to chip away at something deeper, until "not this time" starts to sound like "not me."
If that's where you are right now, please hear this: a run of knock-backs says nothing about your worth. Getting back up, again and again, takes real strength. 💪
Confidence can be rebuilt. We see it happen in our rooms.

10/09/2026

The thing participants tell us most often isn't about work.
It's that they hadn't smiled in months. That somewhere along the way they'd forgotten how to be happy, and they didn't notice until it came back.
Two half days. A room full of people. Some movement, some laughter, some honesty.
That's usually all it takes to remind someone what they're capable of. Not a lecture. Not another conversation about their barriers. An experience.
Confidence isn't something you can hand to someone. But you can put them somewhere it grows. 💙
Supporting mental health, through purpose.

National cabinet met this week to set priorities for the next five year plan on violence against women and children. Men's behaviour change standards made the list. So did respectful relationships education.
There's also growing concern about how much sexual violence now involves people under 18, on both sides, and about what young boys are being fed online.
Here's the part we sit with. A young man who has no purpose, no structure and no clear sense of who he is will find an identity somewhere. If nothing good is on offer, something else fills the gap.
Giving young men something real to be part of isn't soft work. It's some of the most important prevention work there is.
If you or someone you know needs support: 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732, Men's Referral Service on 1300 766 491, or Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Last week's group walked in quiet. Arms folded. Sitting as far apart as the room would let them.
By the end of Day 2 they were laughing so loudly we could hear it from the office.
One person told us they hadn't smiled in months. Hadn't realised they'd stopped.
That's the bit we'll never get tired of. Not the numbers, not the reports. Just watching someone remember what they're capable of over two half days.
To everyone who showed up last week: you did that. We only held the room. 💙
