This Mental Health Awareness Week, we’re shining a light on something many experience, but not everyone talks about.

🧠 1 in 5 Australians aged 16–85 have lived with a mental health condition.¹ That’s millions of people, friends, family, colleagues, you or me.

If you're finding things tough right now, please remember:
You're not failing. You're feeling, and that’s human.

You don’t have to go through it alone.
✨ Speaking up can open doors to healing.
✨ Asking for help is brave, not weak.
✨ Support is out there and it can make a real difference.

If you or someone you know needs support, call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636.

🤰✨ Trying for a baby? Don’t believe everything you read online.

Think you can get pregnant any day of your cycle? Not quite, and you're not alone in thinking that!
Let’s clear it up 👇

The fertile window is the short time in your cycle when pregnancy can happen, and it’s only around six days long. That means you can only get pregnant during this window, though the exact days can vary cycle to cycle.

Understanding your fertile window can support:
✨ Pregnancy planning
✨ Natural contraception methods
✨ Cycle awareness

Knowledge is power when it comes to your body. 💗
