“You are bigger than your biggest worry.” It’s an encouraging message for all, especially those with the weight of the world on their shoulders.

The message, created by herbal remedy brand, BraveFace, lives on its Worry Wall. The powerful mental wellness initiative, originally launched in New Zealand, has come to Australia.

BraveFace has installed two large-scale Worry Walls on Bondi Road, Bondi (NSW), and Chapel Street, Melbourne (VIC). The artist-commissioned murals will be live for five weeks from early August 2025, offering a creative and impactful moment of pause and reflection for the public.

The Worry Wall invites passersby to stop, reflect, and literally leave their hit behind. Each installation features a hand-painted mural created by a local artist, (Bondi – Urban Art and Chapel Street – Walllords), and a lockable BraveFace letterbox where individuals can anonymously deposit their written worries – encouraging an empowering act of release and letting go.

BraveFace is partnering with youth mental health organisation, batyr, for the campaign. For every person who takes a photo of themselves leaving their worry behind and posts to Instagram tagging @braveface and @batyraus, BraveFace will donate $5 to batyr. In addition, $1 from every BraveFace product purchased via the BraveFace website throughout August 2025 will also be donated to batyr, amplifying the brand’s commitment to empower young people to talk openly about mental health and take charge of their wellbeing.

“At BraveFace, we believe that everyone has the power to face their worries with courage, and the Worry Wall is our way of bringing that message to life in a bold and public way,” stated Katherine Douglas, founder of BraveFace. “We want people to pause, reflect, and realise that whatever they’re carrying – they’re not alone, and they are bigger than their biggest worry. Partnering with batyr on this campaign has allowed us to channel that message into real impact, and we’re incredibly proud to support the important work they do for youth mental health in Australia.”

“We’re thrilled to be partnering with BraveFace on the Worry Wall campaign. Speaking about mental ill health can often feel invisible, and this initiative brings it out into the open in a way that’s not only creative but empowering,” added batyr CEO, Pat Darcy. “Every shared post and every product purchase helps us continue delivering mental health programs to young people across Australia. It’s a meaningful step toward breaking down stigma and encouraging conversations that matter.”
