About Us
We’re Brad and Laura Kirsten — partners in life, purpose, and a shared mission to help others live The Higher Living Way.
Married for 19 years and proud parents to a 12-year-old son, we are passionate about living life to the fullest — with energy, purpose, and intentionality. We believe that to live a life of true impact, you must first address the underlying things holding you back — in your health, habits, and discipline.
The Higher Living Way was born out of our desire to help men and women do exactly that — to build the foundations for a healthier, more focused, and more fulfilled life.
Meet Laura & Brad
Laura Kirsten
Wellness Entrepreneur & Mentor
Laura holds a B.Comm degree from Stellenbosch University and spent the first 15 years of her career climbing the corporate ladder in brand and marketing management.
But in 2021, after years of feeling that there was more to life than deadlines and deliverables, she had her wake-up call. The ladder she was climbing was leaning against the wrong building.
So, she made a bold pivot — leaving the corporate world to pursue a life of purpose, flexibility, and meaningful impact.
Today, Laura runs a thriving online wellness business, helping women restore balance, boost vitality, and build healthier lives — from the inside out. She also mentors women who want to create freedom and fulfillment through purpose-driven entrepreneurship.
Brad Kirsten
Radio Presenter | Voice Artist | Media & Motivational Trainer
Brad’s journey began with a B.A. in Human Movement Sciences from the University of the Free State. After running his own exercise rehabilitation clinic, his sense of adventure took him to Taiwan, where he met Laura.
Back in South Africa, Brad pursued another passion that had been with him since his university days — radio. Over the years, he has built a successful career as a radio presenter, MC, voice-over artist, and media trainer.
But it was his own personal health journey that reignited his commitment to helping others. Today, Brad works with men who want to create discipline, structure, and healthy habits that lead to vibrant health and a better quality of life. His message is clear: you can’t lead others effectively until you’ve learned to lead yourself well.
Together, We Believe...
That true wellness goes beyond diet and exercise.
That discipline and mindset are the cornerstones of growth.
And that everyone deserves the chance to live a life of higher purpose, health, and happiness.
Welcome to The Higher Living Way — where health meets purpose, and purpose meets impact.
