As a mental health advocate, Presley consistently spoke about his mental health journey in a bid to help others. 

At the event he gave tips to navigating difficult days, when he said: "Move your body, regardless of how you're feeling. Get outside. Get some sun. If you don't feel like moving, lay on the grass."

Presley previously said: "Having struggled with mental health, depression and some other things that come along with that, I think that whether I help one person or a hundred people get out of that place that I was in at one point in my life, that’s all I need to do."
