Live Like Her Challenge

Mic check, car park edition 🎤

'The Front Seat' is our live news cross of the night, sponsors, attendees, first-timers, all caught mid-moment before the official presentation.

At Brisbane Live Like Her Challenge, Anna McGraw from Sunrise took the lead, and the energy was everything ✨

Every car in that park has a story. This is where we let them tell it 🚗

Waveney Yasso opened the Brisbane Live Like Her Challenge with an Acknowledgement to Country, and you could've heard a pin drop.

Everyone in that carpark stopped. Fully present, fully moved. That's the kind of moment that reminds you why we do this.

Thank you, Waveney, for grounding our night in something so powerful 🧡

Kim Knox has a voice and standing in her community, and she chose to use it for older women who don't have either right now 💔

At Live Like Her Challenge Brisbane, she didn't just show up for the night. She moved through the crowd, sat with attendees, listened to their stories, and shared her own. No performance, no distance, just one person making sure others didn't feel alone in it.

If you've got a voice in your community, this is what it looks like to use it 🚗

When Channel 9's Luke Bradnam turned up on the night, it said something we already know: this community shows up.

That's what the Live Like Her Challenge is built on. Not one big saviour, but a whole community of people (media, mates, mums, local businesses) turning up and giving what they can, when they can.

Luke gave his voice and his platform. Others give a night in their car, a donation, a shared post, a decorated car boot. It all adds up to the same thing: older women getting a safe place to sleep.

Who's turning up with us next year? 🚗

Both nights of the Live Like Her Challenge sounded and looked the way they did because of Microhire.

They supplied all the AV equipment, and if you were there, you'd know exactly what that meant, every speech, every moment, carried through properly because of their support.

A huge thank you to the Microhire team for backing this movement and showing up for older women doing it tough 🚗

Meet Sophie and her mum Elisha 🩷

They took part in the Gold Coast Live Like Her Challenge together, and Sophie found the most heartwarming way to fundraise: she sold her book week costume to raise money for older women experiencing homelessness.

Sophie and Elisha showed up for older women they'll probably never meet. That's the whole point.

If a book week costume can make a difference, imagine what your idea could do ✨

Every Live Like Her Challenge, there's a group of people who show up before the sun goes down, help participants settle into their cars for the night, and stay close until morning.

That's our volunteers 🩷

They set up, they check in on people through the night, they hold space for hard conversations, and they remind everyone why we're doing this in the first place, so older women don't have to face nights like this alone. None of it happens without them.

So today, we just want to say it plainly: thank you. To every volunteer who's given their time, their energy, and their heart to this movement, older women experiencing homelessness have safer, more stable futures because you showed up.

If you've ever thought about volunteering with us, this is your sign. Reach out and find out how you can get involved.

The decorations always give it away first 🩷

Before Live Like Her Challenge even begins, you can spot the boots getting done up. Streamers, signs, photos, whatever tells their story for the day.

It's a small thing, but it says something big. People aren't just showing up, they're making it personal.

Every decorated boot belongs to someone who decided older women experiencing homelessness deserved to be seen.

Want your car in this lineup next time? We are doing this all over again next year 🚗
