Leilani’s Corner
Hello, and welcome to my little digital corner where I’ll share thoughts, musings, projects, recipes— whatever I’m currently keen to share.
This will be my online sanctuary away from social media where I can share longer form content.
I’d much prefer to have my own place and space to express my thoughts and experiences —be they physical, mental, or spiritual, away from social media.
My offerings are for peers, customers, or anyone with a desire to learn by witnessing my approach to life, health, home, and craft through story, land-to-hand herbalism, spirituality, and creation.
I will be posting lots of free content here, while certain shares will be paywalled.
If you’d like to join me, please do!
Hopefully my shares will be something special for others who wish to learn from my lived experiences. One of my latest adventures has been learning how to navigate what I would classify as “metabolic dysfunction” and the very normal hormonal changes that occur with aging naturally. I observed myself heading down a particular road and decided to radically RECLAIM my story and my body.
I think that menopause is an incredibly transformative and sacred process. As is the case with other transformative rites of passage (birth, puberty, motherhood, marriage, aging, and death to name a few), the ways in which we’ve given permission for outsiders to inhabit, thwart, or participate in our rites of passage has bastardized many our lived experiences. I feel that this bastardization has been intentional and it is this dynamic that lies at the crux of the very nature of good and evil, and the is a prime example of spiritual warfare. It is my belief and opinion that the loss of our physical and spiritual autonomy, sense of purpose, and recognition of our blessed nature is not accidental.
This past summer of 2025, I very intentionally allowed my garden to rest following my herb harvest. I also took a “silent and soft” break from sharing much on social media and poured into focusing on my body composition and working on building and maintaining muscle. I had made up my mind that my husband and I were likely moving from our peaceful off grid meadow home in the wilderness, and then had some pretty profound spiritual revelations— which led me to choosing to take an entirely different approach (more on that later).
For now, I’ll leave this here. This space is mine, but it’s for US! Feel free to join me if you’d like to witness me and my journey. I truly feel that this is the most effective way that I can be of service to others. To share myself more adequately— to have a place to hold my words, my thoughts, my experiences, my creations, and ultimately a piece of my life’s story. Thank you so much.
Oh, and one more thing: I’ll never use AI to write here. Never. I think it’s a step backward for creatives and ultimately all of humanity to outsource our minds and modes of expression to some digital entity that can supposedly improve upon what we have accomplished. I am not perfect nor do I WISH to be perfect. I am not a master of the English language. There may be typos or grammatical errors on occasion or even often. I am HUMAN. I think that it’s gross that I even need to declare this, but if you are reading MY entries here, just know that I expressed them from my sometimes irrational, sometimes silly, many times imperfect human flesh.
Love to you.
