A massive thank you to The Rock Christian Church, Capalaba for the incredibly generous donation of food, drinks and snacks to help fuel our amazing volunteers!

We have so many wonderful people giving up their time, getting their hands dirty and helping us bring our new Honoured Social Enterprise Gym to life and keeping everyone fed and fuelled while they work makes such a difference. 🍎🥤

It really does take a community, and we are so grateful to have organisations like The Rock supporting us and the people who are supporting us.

Thank you for helping us look after our volunteers while they help us build something special for our community. The Rock Christian Church

Last chance to get voting!! 💪🏻❤️

❤️ I NEED YOUR SUPPORT! ❤️

Today, I’m asking our incredible community to get behind me and VOTE for me in the Westfield Local Heroes!

We’re at Westfield Carindale today, and I’ve brought along some of my very cute little helpers who are busy getting the word out!

Being named a Westfield Local Hero would mean so much more than an award ,it’s an opportunity to bring real support back into our community and help us continue creating spaces where young people, people with disability and families can feel like they belong, are valued and have people in their corner.

We only have ONE WEEK until voting closes!

Every single vote matters. If you believe in what we’re building, please take a minute to vote — and then share this post and ask your friends and family to vote too.

Thank you for backing me, Honoured, and our vision for a stronger, more inclusive community.

Let’s bring this one home, Redlands!

60 LITRES OF PAINT. ONE BIG COMMUNITY.

A massive thank you to Shieldcoat for jumping on board and donating an incredible 60 litres of black paint to help bring our new Honoured space to life!

This new venue is becoming so much more than a gym. It’s being built by our community, for our community, with local businesses, families, young people, tradies, volunteers and supporters all contributing a piece of the puzzle.

Every wall painted, every hour volunteered and every product donated helps us put more resources back into creating a space where young people, people with disability, carers and families can train, connect and belong.

Shieldcoat, you’re officially part of the Honoured village. 🖤💛

We genuinely couldn’t create something of this scale without businesses choosing to stand beside us and invest in their local community.

60 litres of black paint = a LOT of Honoured walls!

Thank you Shieldcoat, we can’t wait to show you what we create with it.

Community supporting community. That’s how you build something that matters. 🖤💛

🏆 WE DID IT — PERSONAL TRAINER OF THE YEAR 2026! 🏆

I’m still trying to take this in. From being named a finalist to now being announced as the 2026 AUSactive Personal Trainer of the Year, nationally. 🖤💛

But this award is about so much more than personal training.

When I created Honoured Social Enterprise Gym, I wanted to build a place where the people who so often feel like they don’t fit in traditional spaces could walk through the door and know immediately: you belong here.

A place for young people who need someone to believe in them. For people with disability to be recognised for their strengths and potential. For carers who spend so much of their lives caring for everyone else. For families who need connection. And for people whose mental health means simply walking through a gym door can be an enormous achievement.

We’ve always believed that fitness can be a vehicle for something much bigger, confidence, connection, mental wellbeing, employment, leadership, independence and belonging.

And now that work has been recognised on a national stage.

This award may have my name on it, but it belongs to the incredible Honoured team, our young mentors, our families, our participants, our supporters and every person who has trusted us enough to become part of our community.

And the timing couldn’t be more incredible. As we prepare to move Honoured into our new Capalaba home, this feels like confirmation that we’re only getting started.

From one little social enterprise gym in the Redlands to AUSactive Personal Trainer of the Year 2026.

Dream bigger. Challenge what inclusion can look like. And never underestimate what can happen when people are given somewhere they genuinely belong. 🖤💛

Fitness changes bodies. Inclusion changes lives.
