Dawid Okoński has spent seven years working as a personal development trainer, and years of studying psychosomatics and practicing retreats led him to recognize how much a person's natural environment shapes their mental health and potential. That realization pushed him to go deeper into natural building, permaculture, deep ecology, and gentle, attachment-based parenting.

That work led him to found Powrót do Natury, now partnered with the international platform Ethy Maps, with a goal of supporting the development of several hundred ecological homesteads across Poland each year. Dawid runs his own self-sufficient homestead in the mountains and is currently preparing, together with friends, to build a complementary eco-village centered on shared care for children's upbringing.
