If I didn't have that experience of looking over Lachys BODY when he was DEAD; would I have gotten through that? I don’t know!
Kyle Burke is my best friend, my business partner and EVOCATIV’s co-founder. He's intelligent, confident and loves to run - like a really long way for a really long time. Kyle didn’t have life easy, he didn't get given the silver spoon rather he was dished up a much harder meal of life. Leaving school at age 15 on a quest to earn something he never had, being money, led to being an 18year old tradesman with disposable cash in a heavy party scene which continued for years as he was also a local DJ.
After the sudden passing of his best mate Lachy, Kyle began a downward spiral with mental health issues and furthered his unhealthy habits until he found running. “Running for long periods of time without music became my therapy” and so he knew the power of running and physical movement. Inspiring him to found a fundraiser called Run For Your Life 100. A 100km run from Gold Coast to Byron Bay to prove there's an end to even your darkest days - Kyle learnt that “your dark days are experiences you can turn to to get you through your even darker days. My goal is to help others achieve things they never thought were possible, things they have always doubted themselves in”.
Men's mental health means more to him than just those 3 words, it's his heart and soul, his passion and his major mission to make an impact. It's why we do what we do, it's why we changed our brand's focus to exactly that. It's why Evocativ is a Men's Mental Health brand. It's because we want men to get through their dark days..
