The Speakers

At Sounds Beautiful, we gather voices that inspire freedom, courage and authentic connection. Our speakers come together to explore what it truly means to live as sovereign individuals, making choices from a place of clarity rather than coercion, building supportive communities, and stepping into our own power.

Through conversations, workshops and shared experiences, we invite our guests to question old systems, challenge limiting narratives and rediscover the strength that comes from thinking and acting independently. We also celebrate wellbeing in its many forms, offering space for alternative approaches to health, spiritual growth and a deeper relationship with the natural world. Our speakers guide guests toward healing, grounding and reconnecting with the land, while encouraging open dialogue and curiosity. Together, we create a space where people can come alive, explore new possibilities, and build the kind of community where freedom, honesty and compassion can truly thrive.

    In 2015  Mateus was invited to go and live at an off grid community in the Portuguese mountains. It was here that his perspective on our reality experienced a complete shift. Everything changed when he was able to live deep in nature for a prolonged period. he broke free of our programmed existence and miracles happened in real time. He was able to stop wearing contact lenses through the practice of sun gazing and through this practice he also realised that our cosmology was also far from what we are being taught. Mateus says we are so much more than we are being led to believe and we look forward to him sharing his story with you.
