https://pages.leonajohnson.life/beyond-self-helpWhat does it look like to live in deep alignment, with nature, with purpose, and with your own inner compass? In this rich and nourishing conversation, Leona sits down with long-time friend, teacher, and collaborator Vicky Mateu, whose life’s work bridges spiritual ecology, parenting, nature connection, and embodied living.

Vicky brings a unique tapestry of training in emotional intelligence, oriental dietetics, grief tending, theatre, alternative education, and spiritual traditions. Her grounded yet luminous presence shines through in this conversation where she and Leona explore:

Living simply and sustainably while raising a family off-gridTrusting intuition and listening to life’s quiet invitationsFinding beauty in everyday moments as a spiritual practiceThe healing power of nature, stillness, and cyclical livingForest School, rites of passage, and soul-rooted facilitationFacing illness, challenge, and uncertainty with grace and trustReclaiming the forgotten wisdom of indigenous and ancestral ways

✨ Vicky is co-facilitator of both:

The Nature Quest, part of Leona’s year-long in-person Connection Matters Leadership ProgrammeThe Children, Nature and Spirituality weekend course, returning September 2025 in northern England.

This conversation is a gentle and powerful reminder that your body knows, the land speaks, and simplicity often holds the medicine we need most.
