Daria Lebedeva: Everyday Magic

Send us Fan MailIntimacy Coach for women and embodiment practitioner Daria Lebedeva walks with me along the River Thames to talk about spirituality, healing, embodiment, and finding meaning through nature, ritual, and self-trust.Born in Russia and raised partly in the UK from the age of ten, Daria grew up close to rivers, forests, and open ground. A childhood shaped by movement, mud, and curiosity. That early closeness to nature still informs how she lives, works, and walks today.This route along the Thames is one she walks every Sunday with her mum, and it becomes the setting for a wide-ranging conversation about magic, not as fantasy, but as attentiveness. We talk about Bali, shamanic drumming, spirit guides, and how different spiritual paths speak to different people. There is no single method here, only what resonates.Daria also shares her time working in a prison with people facing addiction, describing the strain of holding space in systems under pressure, and how constant emotional labour can quietly wear you down.We talk candidly about her health journey with hypothyroidism, resisting a medication-only approach, and rebuilding strength through nutrition, awareness, and listening to the body, drawing on ideas from The Body Keeps the Score and embodiment practice.This is a grounded, open conversation about healing, belief, and learning to hear parts of yourself that were once hidden.You can find Daria’s work at: 🔗 https://enlightenedsoultribe.com/ 🔗 https://www.linkedin.com/in/darialebedeva1996/Season Two of the story pilgrim walks with people — their histories, rituals, and inner landscapes.buen camino, and keep listening.
