“It’s just insane how the answers are so often out there, but so often we shut our lives down because of what one person says.” (Kia)
“The key to everything in life is love.” (Kia)
“I really feel like I came into this world, this little ball of sunshine, full of enthusiasm, hope and excitement and then I had the human experience… of being moulded, told what to do, given advice, well meaning but advice that then took away my permission to do things.” (Kia)
“When you learn to love yourself – it began with acceptance and then moving into a deep appreciation of myself and my journey and then it turns into love.” (Kia)
“When you learn to love yourself, you treat yourself very differently and will give yourself permission to do so many things that you wouldn’t have done when you didn’t love yourself.” (Kia)
‘With the desire to give comes the need to be able to not give at times otherwise you find yourself quite depleted.” (David)
“I empower my mind, body and soul when I take time to rest.” (Kia)
“I move through my life and business so much more powerfully when I slow down and especially when I come to it from a state of being… which is always a slow, restful place.” (Kia)
“Slow doesn’t mean lacking in energy… quite the opposite.” (David)
“Am I slowing down to the pace of nature? I realised… walking without shoes makes you slow down… because you’re looking at where you’re putting your feet.” (Kia)
“I now challenge myself when I’m bare feet walking to find evidence of what the pace of nature is.” (Kia)
