My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health

Each year I see adverts on TV about MOVEMBER, but I've honestly not taken any notice of it - except that the cause requires men to get clean shaven and then grow a moustache during November.

This world is in so much need, and often having so many fund raising publicity events can desensitises us. We also find it hard which charity or cause to support.

I was roped into this by my beautiful team in Mackay, and finally I started asking about it. In short this event gives us men the opportunity to address and be brave to have those awkward conversations about our health; body, mind and spirit.

Recently, my lovely wife, sons, family & friends, blessed me with a surprise 50th birthday party, and at that party a video was played to me while I was surrounded by some of my closest supporters in life; I saw the many faces of the individuals who have been part of my journey. You all will be hearing more from me - and this reconnection I believe will help bring even more purpose to what I've been called to do in this world - to help be part of finding your purpose, harnessing the gifts and talents you have been blessed with, to bring the best out of each of you, and find that happy place in life.

But I've been told by many great mentors; You can not begin to serve or support others if you yourself are not in a good space.

I've discovered this year that several of my immediate family have AF.

Atrial Fibrillation is a heart related condition which if unmanaged can potentially lead to blood clots, stroke, heart failure and other complications.

I am committing myself today, to finding out more, and even seeing if this "ticking time bomb" might be something that I'm carrying as well. Many of you have been watching over my habits, and it's time for me to pause in life, to look after my health.

I'd love your support; whether it be spiritually, a phone / video chat, or a monetary donation to Movember which motivated me ask the question and self reflect. Without this whacky event I would have just continued my grind day-in-day out.

Thanking you all in advance!!
