<div>Hi friends,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I'm raising money to attend the <a href="https://www.womenofearth.live/woee" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Women of Earth retreat</a> , a weeklong gathering in West Virginia for women-identifying folk centered on personal growth, community building, and leading our lives with more courage and clarity so we can create the world we want to live in.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Usually when I see retreats I want to attend I write them off before I even try: too expensive, too far, too scary…
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But this time I’m going for it, because something inside me says I must.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In a very short amount of time I have connected deeply with this profoundly transformational community. I am seeing myself more clearly, healing deep wounds, reclaiming my wild, taking greater responsibility for my life, and stepping into my power; all with a team beside me. This is my opportunity to meet my new friends in person and dive even deeper into what we’ve been cultivating: for myself, my village and this planet.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’ve been building a life in Tulsa rooted in art and community: I started an ongoing ecstatic dance in 2022, I share my medicine through music and art, I support the fight for food sovereignty at the farmer’s market, and I continually align myself with people working toward a better future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And still, I stall out.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m afraid to be big. I’m afraid to claim what I want.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Fear stops me from fully committing to what I know I’m here to offer– as an artist, advocate, cycle-breaker, change-maker, and healer. This retreat is the next step in facing that fear and stepping into my roles anyway, with support, accountability, and my community beside me.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At the Women of Earth retreat I will create and collaborate with other women who are passionate about changing the world, together. I will clarify my vision, grow my confidence and step more fully into who I am becoming, for myself, my community, and the planet.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How your donation will help</strong>
</div>
<div>I work full time at Garden Deva and the Tulsa Farmer’s Market, and I’m transitioning into holding space for clients as an Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) candidate starting late January. I love supporting this community through my jobs at these two small local businesses, but they only cover my basic expenses, and I can’t fund this trip in time on my own.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your support will go toward retreat costs, food, lodging, and plane tickets. The retreat fee is $1050, plus $200 for food, $600 for housing, and $300 for a round-trip ticket to Charlestown, West Virginia.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Thank you offerings</strong>
</div>
<div>As a thank-you for supporting my journey, I’m offering a few gratitude gifts. These are not transactions, they’re offerings from my heart, shared in appreciation for your support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My print offering is an homage to a personal spirit guide: the Wild Wolf Woman Grief Goddess, who reminds me that my wild feelings and wild grief are gifts; may she be a reminder to you too.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am working with the incredibly talented and gracious Jillian Rutherford to finalize a design. In the meantime, I have included our phase 1 sketch in the pictures for you to get an idea of the final vision. Each print will be a hand-pulled block print in black ink.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have made a list of 5 different offerings based on how much you are able to exchange. ALL your support means so much to me (non-green sparkly good intentions included ;-)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>$20+ — Wild Art Print (small)
</li>
</ul>
<div>Receive one 5”x7” hand-pulled block print of my original work. Printed in black.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>$50+ — Wild Art Print (big)
</li>
</ul>
<div>Receive one 11”x14” hand-pulled block print of my original work. Printed in black.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>$100+ – Wild Art Print + Tape
</li>
</ul>
<div>Receive one hand-pulled block print of my original work (your choice of size) + a 60-minute limited edition green cassette tape of my performance as Taylord at Sunset Club Records on June 12th, 2025 (currently the only released Taylord music).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>$200+ – Intuitive Ink Meditation + Tape
</li>
</ul>
<div>Receive an original intuitive ink meditation created uniquely from our shared energetic field. Inked on 11’x17’ (approximately) unbleached Mashi paper + a limited edition Taylord cassette tape.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>$2000+ – 8 ft. Wild Woman Sculpture
</li>
</ul>
<div>Based on the Wild Wolf Woman Grief Goddess print, I am creating an 8-foot metal Wild Wolf Woman sculpture. I will be sharing process updates on my social pages and website as I continue to search for her forever home. If you are interested in the Wild Wolf Woman sculpture, or know someone who might be, please send me a message.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you’d like a gratitude offering for your donation, send me a message including: the tier, which offerings you want and your mailing address so I can make sure it all gets to you. Pickup or meetup is also an option for those in Tulsa. Just message me here or on my personal number to coordinate.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What I’m making right now</strong>
</div>
<div>Keep up with my work on my <a href="https://www.instagram.com/taylord_ok/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">social pages</a> and my <a href="https://thetaylord.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">website</a> (coming soon) here. Eventually I will have an email newsletter detailing my endeavors. If you want to be on it, just leave your email on the website email box.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>From my heart</strong>
</div>
<div>I’m asking for your help as Tay, a local wild woman finding her voice and returning to her power.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m afraid because I’ve never raised money for myself like this before, yet I am so inspired by the way this community shows up for one another in living our truth.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is me showing up in vulnerability, asking for what I want.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With your support, you will be supporting my next step: less blocks, more connection, less self violence, more self-becoming. I want nothing more than to share my gifts with this world, as deeply, widely, unconditionally and unapologetically as I can.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for reading. If you can’t donate, sharing this page helps more than you know.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In big bold love,
</div>
<div>Tay
</div>
