For those I haven’t met, I’m Tyler. And this is for the birthday of the woman I love very, very much.

Her name is Leela. And this fundraiser is for her.

Since December, we’ve been displaced. A water leak destroyed our home and nearly everything in it: clothes, beds, furniture… almost everything. And if you know Leela and her legendary collection of costumes from years of theater and festival life, you know that was no small loss.

For the past few months, we’ve been moving throughout California: hotels, Airbnbs, house sits... doing our best to stay steady while our health, stability, and savings have been pushed to their limits.

There were days Leela couldn’t walk. The mold exposure didn’t just take our home... it deeply impacted her body and spirit. And even now, she’s still in the process of healing.

And through all of it... the loss, the uncertainty, the constant moving: she KEPT SHOWING UP.

She even created and led a women’s retreat rooted in her own healing process. I’ve watched her continue to give, even when she was navigating so much herself. I’m incredibly proud of her.

We now know what we need most is simple: a place to land. Somewhere stable, clean, and supportive of her healing.

We’ve found that place.

But after losing nearly everything, we need help getting there.

Your support will go toward:

• Healing and recovery

• Medical care, supplements, and ongoing support

• Relocation costs

• Catching up on essential bills

• Replacing basic home needs (clothing, bedding, furniture)

More than anything, this support helps Leela truly land: to rest, to heal, and to step into the work she’s been building toward for over 20 years.

From Leela:

This season is teaching me how to receive… which, honestly, might be my final boss level.

I’m rising from feeding the Ecstatic Dance floor into leading bold, playful, transformational retreats ...with astrology and embodied Flow State work. This is the work. This is the thing!

The last two years? Full phoenix arc. Burned it down, rose from the ashes, still a little smoky, but undeniably back. Priestess training, deep healing, total initiation.

Thank you for helping me land so I can rise all the way.

She deserves a home to heal in. She deserves the chance to build this next chapter.

If you ever been touched by anything Leela does.... In a workshop, a conversation, from her amazing food or magical presence... You already understand why I'm asking.

For those who can, your donation goes directly towards helping her healing, our stability and helping her build what's next.

And for those that can't donate directly, sharing this means just as much.

I am grateful for you. Thank you for making this world a more playful and trustworthy place to be.

Happy birthday to my love. And thank you for your support.

We're in this together.

-Tyler and Leela
