Kerrie Atherton, a woman who has turned her own struggles into a mission to inspire hope and resilience in others, is the founder of Stories of HOPE Australia/Worldwide and EMPOWER Life Solutions. As a Keynote Speaker, Author, Mental Health First Aid Training Presenter, Event Host, Trauma and Addictions Recovery Counsellor, Kerrie has dedicated her life to helping people overcome life's challenges and find hope.
Having faced her own battle with addiction and suicide at the age of 18, Kerrie sought help from Alcoholics Anonymous and has maintained her sobriety for over 40 years. Her personal experiences led her to work in the business and community sector for the past 30 years, assisting those struggling with various issues in life.
After relocating to the Sunshine Coast 17 years ago, Kerrie continued her work as a trauma and addictions coach/counsellor, mentor, and volunteer in the community. She has also provided support to numerous young people in crisis across different schools in the region.
Together with her husband, Kerrie founded the charity "Streetlight," which supported homeless and disadvantaged individuals for six years. Four years ago, she established "Stories of HOPE Australia," a platform that organizes monthly events to bring hope to the community. Kerrie is now a published author, with her latest book, "Stories of HOPE Australia: Resilient People, Remarkable Stories," capturing inspiring tales of strength and determination.
As the world faced the challenges of a global lockdown, Kerrie expanded her reach by launching "Stories of HOPE Worldwide," an online platform that shares stories of hope from around the globe. Additionally, she has become a "Mental Health First Aid" trainer, teaching people how to recognize and assist those experiencing a mental health crisis.
Driven by her passion for preventing suicide and hopelessness, Kerrie Atherton is committed to fostering connection and bringing hope to people in times of uncertainty in our rapidly changing world.
