Better late than never. How lucky am I to have gotten to experience such a beautiful space with some of the best humans I've ever known. Didn't know there was a place good enough to be in the ER at 11am and be back to the grounds at 2pm until @ssbdfest

So many memories and new friends made. So many side quests, laughter, inside jokes, siestas, shared meals, random conversations, and moments of loving complete strangers. I never thought a single music festival could feel this healing.

One of my favorite things about festivals is how naturally these environments let people connect. In a world that can feel increasingly disconnected, you get a few days where everyone’s walls come down. You talk to people you never would have met otherwise. You share things freely. You look out for each other. You find that little spark of humanity again.

And then, hopefully, you integrate the experience and take some of that spark home with you to share with others.

There’s also something special about having permission to let all your fun weirdness out and having it celebrated instead of judged. To be playful. To dress however you want. To dance however your body wants to move. To be curious, expressive, ridiculous, vulnerable, authentic, and completely yourself.

You make friends you probably never would have crossed paths with in normal life, and somehow, a few days later, it feels like you’ve known each other much longer.

The greatest part of this whole experience was this crew of genuinely good souls. For a lot of us, the only common thread at the beginning was that we live / lived in Arizona. By the end - we felt like a tribe that established real roots together.

My cup of gratitude for SSBD + these humans is overwhelming and overflowing.

I can’t wait until we find our way back and create the magic all over again. 🌱🤘🏽
