About My Challenge
From February 5–27, I’m taking on 2,000 push-ups in 23 days to support the Canadian Mental Health Association.
This isn’t about proving anything or chasing a fitness badge. It’s about me choosing to show up for myself in a season where my health, mentally and physically, actually matters. I’ve had periods where I ignored warning signs, pushed through stress instead of dealing with it, and told myself I’d “get to it later.” Later always comes with interest.
This challenge is a reset. A way to build discipline when motivation is inconsistent. A reminder that progress doesn’t require perfection, just consistency. Some days the push-ups feel easy. Some days they feel heavier than they should. Both are part of it.
I’m sharing this because mental health isn’t abstract for me. It’s personal. And if doing something uncomfortable in public helps create a few more conversations or supports people who need it, then it’s worth it.
If you can support or share, thank you. If you’re quietly working on your own health right now, I see you too.
I’m pushing for better.
Please support me as I #pushforbetter.
