The Face Your Fears Foundation is dedicated to empowering young Australians to face their fears and prioritise their mental health. Founded by former UFC fighter Soa Palelei, our non-profit organisation emerged from a deep understanding of the challenges many youth face today. We provide innovative mental health programs and workshops designed to equip young individuals with the skills and confidence to navigate life’s obstacles.
Our foundation is built on the core values of empowerment, compassion, inclusivity, integrity, and collaboration. We believe that every young person deserves the opportunity to thrive, and we strive to create a supportive community where individuals can share their experiences, learn from one another, and grow together. One of our primary goals is to reach all schools across Australia, recognising that educational institutions are vital in shaping young minds. By engaging with students, teachers, and parents, we aim to raise awareness about mental health, reduce stigma, and provide essential resources for coping with challenges. This grassroots approach allows us to foster resilience and empower youth from an early age, helping them turn their fears into stepping stones for personal growth.
