#NotAloneChallenge | Not Alone Summit & Awards

New here? Welcome to the #NotAloneChallenge ✨ Co-created by @jewel , @inspiringchildren , and @iheartradio , the Not Alone Challenge is a global movement reminding people they are not alone and connecting them to free mental health tools. This year, joining is simple: post a carousel, photo, video, or story sharing what supports your mental health or a mental health tool that works for you. It could be someone who makes you feel less alone, your dog, your kids, the ocean, a morning walk, journaling, music, community, or a free tool from NotAloneChallenge.org. You don’t need a script or perfect lighting. You just need to remind someone they’re not alone. Use #NotAloneChallenge, tag @notalonechallenge , and tag 2+ friends to keep the reminder going 🤍

Life is a gift 💙 Kevin Hines has turned his pain into purpose — and his message is one we all need to hear. So grateful to have honored him at last year's Not Alone Awards. Watch. Share. Remind someone they matter.

You are not alone in what you’re feeling. Not in the doubts. Not in the hard days. Not in the healing. Check in on your people, reach out when you need support, and remember that connection can change everything. 988 is available 24/7 for anyone who needs it.

“What’s a tool that helps you live on the Brightside?” ☀️ For Trent Alenik, CEO of Inspiring Children Foundation, the answer is meditation. A practice that helps him slow down, stay present, and reconnect with what matters most. This Mental Health Awareness Month, remember that protecting your peace can look different for everyone. Sometimes it starts with simply taking a moment to breathe. Thank you Ziggy for sparking meaningful conversation and spreading light ✨

It’s okay to not be okay. 🤍 The moments we’re most tempted to hide are often the moments that remind someone else they’re not alone. When we’re honest about what we’re carrying, we create space for connection — for someone to feel seen, understood, and a little more hopeful. You don’t have to have the right words. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You don’t have to heal in silence. Your honesty can be a bridge. You are not alone.

Ground yourself: Name 5 things you can see, 4 you can touch, 3 you can hear, 2 you can smell, 1 you can taste. Move your body: Stretch, shake out your arms, or walk for 2 minutes. Submerge your face in a bowl of ice water or take a cold shower. Breathe in for 4, hold for 4, breathe out for 4, hold for 4. Repeat. Step outside, take a walk in fresh air. Nature has a powerful ability to calm your nervous system. Save this as your quick reset tool for when anxiety spikes. You’re doing better than you think.💙 ✨Want more tools for moments like this?

INSPIRING CHILDREN ORGANIZATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS…. For nearly three decades, the Inspiring Children Foundation has been a pioneer in whole-human youth development, helping young people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, financial hardship, and life challenges heal, grow, and thrive. What began as a grassroots effort in Las Vegas has evolved into an Integrated Healing Environment, combining mental health, mentorship, education, leadership, entrepreneurship, nutrition, physical wellness, tennis, project-based learning, and service. Built around the Foundation’s 10 Pillars of healing, growth, and high-performance living, ICF helps children discover their passions, strengthen their minds and bodies, develop emotional resilience, and become leaders in their own lives. From the Team Bryan tennis program to the Not Alone mental health movement, the Foundation has spent 27+ years proving that when a child is surrounded by love, structure, opportunity, and belief, they can transform their pain into purpose and become not only successful, but whole. Thank you @jewel @bryanbros @mikecbryan @iheartradio @notalonechallenge
