“As a mum, I am an observer.
I chime in when I feel there is
a lesson to be learnt that
my children cannot learn
themselves in that moment.
I believe every soul who comes
into this world is unique. I treat
my children [Zion and new
baby Gia] as individuals and
base everything subjectively
on their personal wants and
needs. I don’t claim to own
them; they are their own spirit
and we have to honour that.”

“I want my children to treat
everyone equally, regardless of
the person’s job, sexual
orientation, religion or skin
colour. I want them to be kind to
themselves and to be OK when
they make mistakes or make
choices that not everyone
agrees with. I want them to be
honest because living a truthful
life is the easiest thing you can
do to be happy and fulfilled.
The world is full of smart people
and people with money, people
who can entertain, sell or work
hard. While those are all
wonderful traits, I think that
raising good children is what the
world needs a little more of.”
