24.01.2022 Ok so it’s an action shot so not the most flattering picture, but I am SUPER proud to have been asked to participate and honoured as always to share the R U OK? message, not just today but every day Check out the full video here! https://www.instagram.com/tv/CE7r9nUHPSV/
23.01.2022 A big thanks to Wollondilly shire council for having me out to speak at their R U OK? BBQ breakfast this morning. Next stop parramatta... How are you spending your R U OK? day???... Unsure how to ask the question, what to say or how to keep the conversation going? Visit www.ruok.org.au and learn that there’s more to say after R U OK? #ruok #theresmoretosay #whowillyouask?
23.01.2022 You are ALWAYS enough
22.01.2022 Was back in the saddle today with my first official book event of 2021! Thank you to @exploringtree at Cobbitty for inviting me to visit as part of their vacation care program. After reading Emily and the VERY big Feeling to them we then spent some time talking about the message of the book, how they manage their own VERY big feelings and who they could talk to if they needed support. The kids also loved getting to see some of Lindy’s original prints from the book up close and spotting all the stars that weave their way through every image Was a great way to kick off what I hope will be a BIG year!
22.01.2022 You can’t walk the journey for other people, but you can walk it with them
22.01.2022 Ooohh...another awesome addition to the Kids who shine online shop! Lots of amazing resources available through their page and also a growing collection of books aimed at increasing the emotional wellbeing of young people. Be sure to check them out and show them some love!
22.01.2022 And then she turned to her little sister when they were finished reading and said..’you can always talk to me’.. - Mel, Central Coast #emilyandtheverybigfeeling #projectemily #childrensbooks #childrenbookillustration #childrenmentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #suicideprevention
22.01.2022 Feedback from a teacher: Every Thursday afternoon the kids pick a book for ‘Book of the week’ and since we did a lesson today for R U OK? Day they immediately thought of your book from earlier in the year and chose it Love this!! Can’t wait till every school EVERYWHERE has a copy!!
21.01.2022 One foot in front of the other
21.01.2022 I received this amazing feedback via email from the mum of a beautiful 7 year old girl. (be sure to flick through the slides to read the whole email! ) I have read it three times now and each time I am moved to tears. ... If I didn’t sell another single copy of this book I would still be ridiculously content. This here, this beautiful young girl is the reason why I wrote this book. Honouring Emily’s beauty, heart and soul was the catalyst, but this here was the reason. Because all children deserve to be reminded of their worth and because all children deserve to know how empty the world would be without them.

20.01.2022 Soooo......I was going to wait until I had the deliveries ready to go and could get a good photo opportunity to accompany the post....BUT...I think now is actually a really good moment... Not only have we been blessed to have Emma Mcbride’s AMAZING support in putting a copy of our book into ALL Central Coast libraries...BUT we have also had an anonymous benefactor fund the donation of our book to EVERY primary school on the Central Coast!! That’s right...by the end of Se...ptember EVERY Public,Catholic, Private and Independent primary school on the Central Coast wil have a copy of our book in their school library Thank you to our humble and generous benefactor (you know who you are) and thank you to VERY wonderful Emma McBride, for both believing in the power and potential of this book to heal, educate and save Thank you for standing with us to help ensure that Suicide is no longer the LEADING cause of death for Australian children

16.01.2022 I was very honoured to have the opportunity to meet with the Iris Foundation last week in order to talk all things Suicide Prevention on the Central Coast and beyond. It is always a privilege and a joy to get to share ideas and stories with people on the front line of Suicide prevention and Mental Health Advocacy and to be in the presence of people who put their heart and soul into providing hope and support to others. I am proud to have the opportunity to stand alongside t...he Iris Foundation and I am truly in awe of how long and how fiercely they have been in the trenches for already. I look forward to building a strong and collaborative relationship with them moving forward, for when you wage war against Suicide, depression,hopelessness and social isolation, you don’t ever do it alone. Instead, you call to arms all the strongest hearts and loudest voices and that my friends, is how we will win the war
16.01.2022 Super proud of Emily’s mum Christina (@stina_shines ) and the team at @f45_training_tuggerah for helping to raise over $600 on Thursday for R U OK? Fundraising on the day cracked the $300 mark and @f45_training_tuggerah matched the donation in order to DOUBLE the total amount raised! So proud of this lady who always turns up and always chooses to shine. She is the moon, sun and stars all rolled into one
16.01.2022 Repost from Emily’s mum Christina. My best friend for 40 years (and counting) and hands down the strongest person I know Repost from @stina_shines Today EMILY would be 24 ... Hard to comprehend, but life continues to move on so fast without her and lives go on seamlessly. To lose a child is devastating, but to wake on the morning of your child’s birthday without being able to see them, no matter the age or the time that has passed, it’s a pain like no other. The thoughts of what could have and would have been consumes my head from days before, and whilst every day is rough without her, her birthday would have to be up there with the toughest day each year. Birthdays were her fave. So until I see you again Em, I will continue to live for you. Happy Birthday in Heaven and cheers to 24 my bear I hope you’re hung over eating cheese burgers for breakfast. Thank You to all that have taken a moment to check in and remember my Em today
14.01.2022 Believe in yourself and allow yourself to be a work in progress. It doesn’t matter how long it takes, all that matters is that you never give up
14.01.2022 Happy Birthday Emily Here is a red balloon for every year you should be celebrating with us today. You should be here..... and my heart will forever be heavier for the fact that you’re not. While I can never bring you back, I can be sure to speak your name and pay forward all the love, beauty and compassion that lived in your heart. Shine down on what we lovingly create in your honour Emily, shine down onto all the other precious diamonds of the world and help them to find their voices.
13.01.2022 Sharing the full video since my other link didn’t work! (look out for a brief cameo at the 5 minute mark!) Such a great video full of so many great reminders for us all
13.01.2022 Loving can hurt Loving can hurt sometimes.. But it’s the only thing that I know When it gets hard...... (you know it can get hard sometimes) It is the only thing that makes us feel alive. We keep this love in a photograph We made these memories for ourselves Where our eyes are never closing Hearts are never broken And time’s forever frozen still.. (Photograph by Ed Sheeran)(@teddysphotos ) Another R U OK? day is done and dusted and as always, my thoughts turn to Emily. You should be here with us today beautiful girl and I’m so sorry that your not. I know though, that you see still see us; our grief, our love our mission. Keep watching over us Emily as we speak your name and keep your memory alive and most of all, keep shining down over all the other precious diamonds of the world and help them to find their voices Till we meet again, Celeste x
12.01.2022 I’m pleased to announce that on Friday all donated copies of Emily and the VERY big Feeling were delivered to MP Emma McBride and will VERY soon be making their way to ALL the public libraries and primary schools on the Central Coast! Thanks again to our AMAZING (and humble) anonymous benefactor and to the huge generosity of MP Emma McBride that made this wonderful contribution possible #emmamcbridemp #emmamcbride #childrensbooks #childrensbookillustration #childrenbookauthor #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #suicideprevention
11.01.2022 Next presentation ready to kick off..I’ve lost my site contact but I’m guessing I’m in the right place
10.01.2022 Give yourself permission to be human your perfection is not (and was not) ever required
10.01.2022 These guys rock! (not just because they love the book) but because they truly share our mission and our vision and have also chosen to dedicate themselves to helping teach our children just how much they really matter and just how much they are truly loved and valued just as they are. They create and sell resources specifically designed to increase the emotionally wellbeing, self-esteem and resiliency of young people and are well worth a follow (if you don’t already!) Be sure to check them out on Insta too!
09.01.2022 If you are looking for an extra special way to mark this year’s R U OK? day and/or are looking for the right way to spark a conversation with a little person in your life about all things mental health, emotion wellbeing and what to do with all our VERY big feelings, then don’t forget that 10% of EVERY copy of Emily and the VERY big feeling sold is donated to R U OK? Purchase your signed copy via www.projectemily.com.au Because stories are made to be shared
06.01.2022 Repost from @kidswhoshine Sometimes Emily found it hard to breathe too. It was like there was a giant elephant sitting on her chest. Emily and the VERY BIG feeling is such a beautiful book to read and have those quiet moment chats with your kids - reassuring them of all the support around them and brainstorming all the things they can do if they feel, the very BIG feelings. ... We’re so excited to be sharing this book with you all - hop online to check it out! #socialemotionallearning #kidswellbeing #kidsmentalhealthmatters #kidsemotionalwellbeing #teachersfollowteachers #teachersofinstagram #parents #parenting #raisinghealthykids #raisingkids #kidsbookswelove #kidsbooks #positiveparenting #parenthood #emotionaleducation #selftalkmatters #familyconversations #familyiseverything #familymatters
05.01.2022 Emily’s mum Christina shining bright and kicking but AS ALWAYS!! A big shout out to the staff and clients at F45 Training Tuggerah for their support of this important day and for always turning up for one another #ruok #theresmoretosay #whowillyouask
04.01.2022 A big shoutout to @loveableliterature and @mrsbrownsbookbox for including us in this very prestigious line up of books! Feeling very humbled as always Repost from @loveableliterature What a start to the year it has been... so much change and again so much uncertainty for many, particularly for the next generation growing up in a world none could have really ever imagined.... Now it is more important than ever for our children to voice their thoughts and worries. @mrsbrownsbookbox and I have chosen #8brilliantbooks this week that are perfect for sharing with children about their worries, the importance of mindfulness and of course having hope. #rubysworry #whatdoyoudowithaproblem #theworrysaurus #theheartandthebottle #happy #thebookofhopes #theboythemolethefoxandthehorse #emilyandtheverybigfeeling #childrensbooks #kidslit #picturebooksofinstagram
04.01.2022 Your story matters...YOU matter. Own your story, for better or for worse. Talk about the good chapters in order to uplift and provide hope and talk about the bad chapters in order to help heal.... A wise person once said to me that your message often lies within your mess.. So don’t hide the messiness, the pain, the hurt, the fear or the grief that lies within your story. Don’t hide from the painful chapters but instead, open them wide up and leave them lying out in the sunshine, let the gentle breeze blow through their pages. Read them aloud to others with love and compassion and forgiveness; because when you do, you role model to others what it looks like to be a survivor and if you have the opportunity to role model what survival looks like, then you also have the opportunity to help save the lives of others that might be struggling with their life own story. So own your story...the whole of your story and know that your story..that ALL stories, matter! Most of all, remember that when you own and love all of the different chapters of your story without fear, shame, guilt or regret, then you also give someone else permission to do the same and this my love is a very powerful gift indeed #projectemily #emilyandtheverybigfeeling #childrensbooks #childrenbookillustration #childrensbookillustration #childrensmentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #suicideprevention
04.01.2022 Remember, not only is EVERY day a good day to ask R U OK? but EVERY day is also a good day to ask for help if you need it.. put your hand up, reach out, start a conversation.. You are not broken ... You are not worthless You are not a burden You ARE worthy of love and support and there is ALWAYS hope. It can get better... Never give up
02.01.2022 Oh...my....heart.... What a wonderful, joyful, amazing, humbling day... When your book’s character makes it all the way to a school book week! ... #emilyandtheverybigfeeling #childrensbooks #childrensbookillustration #mentalhealthawareness #childrensmentalhealth
