Alycia Davies

Alycia is passionate about helping people reconnect with themselves, their purpose and their potential. Originally from the small coastal town of Iluka, she moved away from home at just 16 to pursue greater opportunities, learning resilience, independence and determination from an early age.

Today, Alycia works as a Marketing Specialist at Verve Partners, helping businesses and leaders create meaningful impact through purpose-driven marketing. She is also the founder of Morning Mindfulness, a wellness initiative she launched in 2021 to foster connection, wellbeing and community. Through breathwork, meditation and wellness events, she has helped more than 30,000 people across the Hunter region develop practical tools for resilience and mental wellbeing.

When Alycia was invited to take part in Stars of Newcastle, she saw an opportunity to support a cause that is deeply personal. Six years ago, her mum was diagnosed with oral cancer, beginning a journey that continues to shape her family's life today. While her mum has beaten cancer, she lives with significant long-term effects from treatment, and Alycia has witnessed firsthand the far-reaching impact cancer has on entire families. Watching her younger sister leave school to help care for their mum reinforced just how much cancer affects not only the person diagnosed, but everyone around them.

Driven by a passion for connection, community and helping others, Alycia is embracing the Stars challenge to honour her family's journey, raise vital funds for Cancer Council, and help ensure no family faces the challenges of cancer alone. For her, every dance step is an opportunity to create awareness, inspire hope, and make a meaningful difference.
