Work with leila

Leila is on a mission to transform the hierarchical, wealth hoarding, philanthropic landscape that privileges the wealthy and disavows the working class. In a field largely overrun by white ruling class people, it is important instead to invest in colonized working class organizers who have the experience, insight, and foresight to guide the reallocation of wealth and other resources in strategic and impactful ways. This is how we disrupt capitalism and colonialism in real time.

Leila builds community with frontline organizers from across our liberation movement in the U.S and the Global South. When you work with Leila, you are also partnering with other community leaders: QTI Black, Indigenous, and Immigrant movement organizers, artists, healers, medicine people, farmers, land stewards, and innovative social entrepreneurs in Leila’s ecosystem.

You get connected to the pulse of the movement and you move resources towards collective visions of freedom.

FOR MONEY COACHING CLIENTS

Leila is not your ordinary Money Coach or Development Advisor. Leila’s practice is rooted in the principles of community organizing. Therefore, you are not a client. Instead, you are a community member with a shared goal of freedom. You become a comrade.

They are here to challenge you to think expansively about your role in the movement of extracted resources in the task of reparations; as a wealth holder, as a donor, and as an active accomplice for global liberation. With fierce love and compassion, they will ask you the necessary questions, hold space for your truth, and build actionable steps towards accountability.

  • Expect to transform your giving plan to a new level of radical solidarity

  • Expect to open your heart and mind & let go of fear and disillusionment

  • Expect to expand your giving range while building trust-based relationships with impacted communities

  • Expect to practice accountability as an accomplice to revolutionary community leaders and their values

  • Trace your family lineage to un-learn the roots of wealth hoarding
