Petrea King and Quest for Life Foundation Providing skills & strategies to empower people, organisations, communities in crises to heal

Founded by Petrea King in 1989, the Quest for Life Foundation provides intensive educational programs and workshops that encourage and empower people with the tools to create emotional resilience, healing and peace of mind. Assisting people from all walks of life we provide a proven, effective and holistic approach to physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Set in 9 acres of landscaped gardens, the Quest for Life Centre provides an oasis for time out and an ideal environment for reflection, healing and the learning of new and valuable life skills. Thousands of people journey to the Centre to find a safe haven in which to begin or continue their healing journey. The Centre also provides an opportunity to intensively train facilitators, therapists, counsellors, nurses, doctors and other professionals from around Australia. As a charity, Quest is committed to making programs accessible to everyone in need of them and has DG1 status. It is often those who can least afford our programs who need them the most. Please consider helping Quest reach more people by making a donation or a gift in your will.

In this heartfelt testimonial, Sam shares how her experience in our Healing Your Life program opened the door to deep self-discovery and personal insight. 🌸

Through the support of our compassionate facilitators and a nurturing community, Sam was able to gently explore what had been holding her back—and begin moving forward with greater clarity, strength, and resilience.

If you’ve ever felt lost, overwhelmed, or impacted by trauma… you’re not alone. And healing is possible. 🌱

Sam’s message is simple, yet powerful: this program can help you reconnect with who you truly are.

There’s something truly special about gathering around a campfire. 🔥

Last week during our Moving Beyond Trauma – Just for Women program, our participants shared a beautiful evening together by the fire. These photos, captured by our facilitator Chantal, reflect the warmth, connection and sense of community that grows throughout the program.

We love how moments like this bring women together — creating space to share, support one another, and gently heal. In these simple yet powerful experiences, bonds are formed that help participants move forward with greater strength, understanding and hope.
