Intention + attention = manifestation. We shift our reality and create change by applying this basic principle. This is an element of our magick.
Wisdom In The Wind goes from January 30th to February 2nd, 2025, and will honor Imbolc, the halfway point between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox. Imbolc is honoring the time when nature re-emerges after the long Winter darkness. Infused with the essence of the Celtic Goddess of Fire, Brigid, together we will ignite our flame under the desert sky.
Through the lens of play, we connect more deeply with ourselves and others. Empowerment through sharing, gathering, and ceremony creates bonding experiences that can last a lifetime.
Hi, I’m Leah and I love to create the space for these experiences! Flowing in harmony with beauty, nature, and great food. Let’s celebrate the joy that comes with feeling lighter and brighter…Let’s play!
A Cum Laude graduate with a BA in Theater Arts + Minors in Child Development and Family Development, Leah is comfortable exploring the depths of human connection and creativity. After 20 years in the Los Angeles market as a business owner and creative, she moved her family to Bali for a new chapter in 2022. Exploring local culture, the Balinese relationship with nature, and the power of ceremony, she enjoyed a deep reset that widened her path. Now living in the Mojave Desert near Joshua Tree National Park, she celebrates the peace and wisdom of the desert wind.
With over a decade of experience in the festival and Burning Man community, Leah supported the production of many transformative events including: Lightning In A Bottle, Lucidity, Bhakti Fest, Electric Daisy Carnival, and Coachella. She lives a life deeply full of natural arts, witchcraft, mysticism, meditation, cooking, and small batch crafts. She currently produces Wisdom In The Wind wellness retreat in Southern California as well as public, private, & corporate experiences nationwide.
