About Nick
Keynote
Speaker Nick Bracks’s early career in the fashion and entertainment industries ultimately led him to his ongoing work in mental health awareness. He earned international modeling contracts and made regular appearances on Australian television as a presenter and a personality. During his time on Dancing with the Stars, Nick publicly spoke about his experience with depression and anxiety for the first time.
Nick had advocated alongside some of Australia’s and the world’s largest mental health-focused organizations by candidly recounting the mental health issues he had struggled with since age 11, including a challenging period when injury forced an early end to his initial career as a competitive athlete. He has spoken to audiences of 1,000+, personally delivering over 1,000 seminars at schools and corporate events worldwide and presenting two TED talks, one covering how creative and entrepreneurial drive can help combat depression and a second on the growing suicide epidemic.
One of Nick’s creative outlets is acting. He has completed a full-time acting course at Film and Television Studio International, with several film credits already to his name, including a two-year role on the beloved Australian soap Neighbours, and other Australian productions, along with creating his own content.
Acting, along with exercise and meditation, is Nick’s foundation for mental health. In addition to advocacy and acting, Nick has pursued various entrepreneurial projects since earning a Bachelor of Business at RMIT, successfully launching five companies. His business achievements include the launch of his eponymous men’s underwear label, underBRACKS; a successful restaurant venture; co-founding a nutritional supplements company; co-founding Happy Waves, and founding a digital mental health educational organization, designed to get these important messages to people all over the world. In addition, Nick’s new podcast, Move Your Mind with Nick Bracks, is now available on Spotify, Acast, Apple Podcasts, and other platforms.
Nick’s professional life and personal development are perfectly intertwined. The result is a prolific and accessible output that others can apply to their own experiences.
