Our final trauma recovery course for the year.

If you or someone you know is struggling with the impacts of trauma, this is your opportunity to take a step towards recovery.

You don’t have to have it all figured out to begin, and you don’t have to face it alone.

I’ve felt the judgement. I’ve heard “selfish” when I’ve spoken honestly about my experience as a military spouse and now a veteran’s wife.

It’s an emotional roller coaster: grief, shame, anger, resentment, pride, purpose and love, sometimes all in one day.

How dare I feel resentment when I share my husband with my country? How could I feel anything but pride in a man who served with conviction and integrity?

But I felt both. Pride and love don’t erase the loneliness, hurt or cost.

Speaking at Pucka about the tears and dark, lonely journey through deployments and transition, I knew some would hear an “unsupportive wife”. Yet others recognised their own experience, the strain on their marriage, its breakdown, or the impact on their family.

We cannot overlook the impact on our children. For some families, it continues long after service ends.

This isn’t everyone’s story. Many spouses have been happy with military life, and their experiences deserve to be heard too. But I know others have stayed silent through shame or fear of judgement.

Countless people have said, “Thank you for sharing what I’ve never been able or too afraid to say.”

It’s for them that I’ll continue to speak.

Finding purpose doesn’t mean the pain has disappeared. We can be grateful for today and still feel the effects of what we’ve lived through.

I’m not asking to be labelled a victim. I’m asking for the impact of service on families to be recognised and supported through action.

Royal Commission acknowledgement must be followed by practical support: funding for partner and family programs led by peers who understand the journey, programs that help people heal, rebuild connection, and find hope and purpose.

We can honour someone’s service while acknowledging what it has cost those who love them. We cannot isolate the veteran experience from the family. We lived it too.

I’m looking forward to attending the DVA Veteran Family Forum, bringing my lived experience and advocating for support that reflects the whole family.

Our families deserve to be heard and supported to heal.

We’re very happy to support and promote the upcoming Brisbane screening of the Invisible Injuries documentary on 28 October.

This important film shares a powerful story of military service, trauma, recovery, family, connection and finding purpose again.

If you’re in Brisbane, get along and support this very worthy event. It’s an important conversation for veterans, first responders, families and the wider community.

🎟️ Screening details and tickets:
https://www.invisibleinjuriesdocumentary.com/

THE NEXT CHAPTER OF THE NATIONAL TOUR IS HERE. 🎬🇦🇺

After an incredible first leg of Invisible Injuries with 4 cities, 5 screenings and more than 400 people in 9 days, we're getting back on the road.

This time:

📍 MELBOURNE — October 26 | Lido Cinemas
📍 BRISBANE — October 28 | Dendy Cinemas
📍 ADELAIDE — November 1 | Wallis Glenelg

Every screening will be followed by a live Q&A, because we've learned that some of the most important moments happen after the credits.

People stay. They ask questions. Veterans and families share their experiences. Strangers talk to each other. And people with no military connection at all tell us they leave thinking differently about someone in their own life.

Because while Invisible Injuries begins with one veteran's story, the conversation is much bigger.

How much of a person do we judge without knowing what happened to them?

Three more cities. Three more rooms. Three more opportunities to keep that conversation moving.

If you're in Melbourne, Brisbane or Adelaide, come and experience this one with us.

🎟️ TICKETS ARE ON SALE NOW (Adelaide coming soon):
https://www.invisibleinjuriesdocumentary.com/

Bring someone with you.

The more we talk about what we can't see, the less invisible it becomes.

Charity co-founder Zoe had the opportunity last week to sit down with In The Heart Of The Vault Podcast and shares her experience, the often-unseen journey of an Army wife—supporting her husband Andy through his transition from the Australian Army, the realities of PTSD, and the profound impact trauma had on their marriage and family. It’s an honest conversation about love, grief, resilience, identity, and finding hope on the other side. Take a look.
