Transforming Lives, Wellbeing, Mental Health and Resilience

REBOOT: Mindset Academy was founded by former National Rugby League players Mitchell Pearce and Todd Carney, both of whom experienced significant challenges on and off the field, including the intense pressures of professional sport. Some of their off-field struggles were well publicised in the media, leading to serious personal consequences and affecting their loved ones and teammates. Open and honest about their past experiences, Mitchell and Todd each reached a pivotal turning point—a moment of clarity that inspired them to take ownership of their choices, embrace meaningful lifestyle changes, and commit to a healthier, more positive future. These changes have not only transformed their own lives, but have also had a lasting impact on those around them. Motivated by a shared desire to help others navigate life’s challenges, Mitchell and Todd established the REBOOT: Mindset Academy, a registered charity dedicated to empowering individuals to realise their full potential. The Academy delivers engaging, holistic programs that equip participants with practical tools to make positive, healthy decisions for personal and professional success. Our programs cater to all age groups, with a strong focus on youth development, recognising the importance of early intervention in building resilience, confidence, and mental wellbeing. Offerings include mental health education, resilience training, leadership development, and life skills workshops—designed to inspire and support participants from school-aged children through to adults seeking personal growth. At REBOOT: Mindset Academy, our mission is clear: to create lasting change by helping people of all ages unlock their strengths, build resilience, and lead purposeful, healthy lives.
