ABOUT KIA

Kingdom Living
Mentor &
Coach.

Discovering yourself through a walk with Jesus Christ is Kingdom Living. For over a decade, where Kia once helped people strengthen their physical health to function better, she now helps people strengthen spiritual foundations â€” so they can live fully in what God has called them to.

"Getting to know you matters. Your story matters."

Her Mission

True Transformation Happens When We
Pursue Wholeness, Not Just Change.

Kia Bourne is a Kingdom Living Mentor and Coach — someone deeply passionate about helping people discover who they truly are so they can live fully in what God has called them to.

Her mission is simple: to help people activate a deeper focus within themselves, wholly — spirit, soul, identity, purpose, and relationship with God — because true transformation happens when we pursue wholeness, not just change.

Professional Journey

Over a Decade of Helping People Optimize Their Health and Well-Being.

For over 10 years, Kia worked in fitness and nutrition helping individuals better connect with their bodies through movement, nourishment, and intentional lifestyle change.

As a competitive dancer with a background in dance choreography, movement has always been part of who she is. That love for strength and understanding how the body works led to becoming a Certified Fitness Trainer in 2005.

"I learned early on that transformation requires consistency, patience, intentionality, and understanding that no two people are the same."

Over time, that passion expanded into nutrition — becoming a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist in 2013 — because fitness and nutrition were never meant to work separately. Through years of coaching and clinical experience, she discovered that true wellness happens when we bridge the gap between how we move, fuel, think, and care for ourselves.

Faith Journey

The Surrender That Changed Everything.

Though Kia accepted Christ years ago, she realized she was still trying to hold control while asking God for Kingdom outcomes — wanting Kingdom results, but pursuing them her own way.

"You cannot have God's way and your way at the same time."

Surrender changed everything. The plans, the timeline, the understanding — choosing His way over hers. That surrender birthed Word Up! and Kingdom Living & Lifestyle — a space inspired by God's wisdom and His way of doing life.

Because Kingdom Living isn't about striving harder. It's about learning to walk with Jesus. To trust Him. To allow His Word to shape who you become.

As part of her continued spiritual development, Kia completed the Spiritual Director Certification Program through the Uncommon Calling Academy – Elite, presented by Dr. Dharius Daniels — strengthening what God had already been cultivating in her.
