A few memories that survived the dust storms. 🌪️✨

The music. The magic. The ridiculous amounts of dust. The laughter, the friendships, the unexpected moments, and all the beautiful humans who made this Burn unforgettable.

Burning Man 2026, you were something else. ❤️‍🔥

Until we meet again in the dust. ✨

4 years married (today!), almost 8 years together. Not always easy, but some things are worth growing for. Rick, aka Rico, aka Rizz, aka Oreos, aka Loving Lion: thank you for choosing me every day, no matter what. I love you and am so grateful we found each other and keep turning toward each other. It’s hard to remember life without you because the minute you saw me my world became our world. And our world keeps getting better and better the more we say yes to love. Thanks for being my playmate, lover, partner, and friend. You’re a sexy beast and I am lucky to be loved so fiercely by you! As we move through our next year of marriage let’s remember no matter where we are, together we are home. 💕

This anniversary is particularly special, on the heels of our third Burn. We’ve come SO far and to see you embrace every moment so fully and with so much trust was everything. Love wins!

Has anyone else noticed the elemental pattern of the last 4 years of Burning Man?

2023 was Water.
2024 was Earth.
2025 was Air.
And now 2026 is arriving as Fire.

Rick and I were talking about it on the drive in and realized our relationship has moved through a similar emotional cycle.

So we’re entering this Burn with intention.

How do we want Fire to live through us?

Not as irritation or short fuses, but as passion, devotion, and a commitment to be all in on enriching each other’s experience.

We talked through our triggers, came up with ways to lovingly interrupt them, and set an intention for what we want to feed instead.

Water asked us to surrender.
Earth asked us to be present.
Air asked us to adapt.
Fire is asking us to choose what we ignite.

And this year’s theme, Axis Mundi, makes the pattern feel even more interesting.

Across mystical traditions, the axis mundi is the sacred center, the point where earth, sky, and spirit meet. Not another element, but the place that connects them.

Maybe it’s coincidence. Maybe it’s synchronicity. Either way, I love the idea that the desert keeps offering us a mirror.

These photos are from 2024: Earth 💕

This is 50! And the best New Year’s Eve birthday party a girl could possibly ask for. I am at a loss for words to express the depth of gratitude I feel for my community of friends and family who showed up for a vision of an epic celebration to kick off 2026 — and my 50th spin around the sun. We nailed it! So many kind words, laughs, smiles, dance moves, and memories were made and shared as we rung in the new year in style (and silliness)! I’m grateful for each and every one of you. Thank you for being a unique expression of love, curiosity, creativity, and humanness. ✨🖤✨ I’m also feeling grateful for my health. 50 is not what it used to be. I’m fortunate to live in a time where I feel empowered to fuel my body, mind, and spirit with the things that lift me up, give me strength, energize my vitality, and keep me feeling like the best time of my life is now (and I think it will keep getting better.) There’s a whole lotta juice left in this squeeze. 🥰🤘 I’m also grateful for my partner in life, @lovinglionrick for seeing me, lifting me up, loving me so fiercely, and being such a ridiculously fun teammate. Let’s go 2026!

Feeling grateful to be a part of such a special celebration and honoring of Jerry Garcia for three full days! Every day was amazing and every show better than the last. The mastery of these musicians and their instruments is so amazingly off the charts it blows my mind every time I see them! 🤯 Seeing Trey Anastasio jam with the band was next level. I can still feel it in my soul.

And so grateful for the friends we have connected with in this wonderful community of beautiful weirdos. My favorite kind of people. ✨🤩 Epic after parties too! Especially seeing Garrett from Jerry’s Middle Finger & his buddies at Balboa. Thanks @meikotakayama for the tip…and the tickets! Thanks @rainbow_chaser77 for being so friendly and sweet.

❤️❤️❤️

Thank you to my wonderful husband @lovinglionrick for sharing your love of the Dead with me and enriching my life in this way. I love you and I’m grateful to have this unforgettable time together.

❤️❤️❤️

Pretty late post from my weekend in Seattle with my dad

It’s been an emotional few weeks for me as I help my parents navigate their next steps, and I needed a sign that everything is going to be ok. Then Rick and I stepped outside to get some fresh air and a magnificent rainbow appeared before us. My phone couldn’t capture its true grandeur (not even close), but I saw it with my eyes and felt it in my body. The emotion…the tears… the rain… the rawness…they reveal a gift that couldn’t be revealed otherwise. A new layer of beauty, a special fleeting moment shared with a loved one, a reminder to keep looking up.

This isn’t the first time I’ve stepped outside and looked at the sky when needing a sign. Thank you, sky, for dropping my jaw with one. I really needed it. ❤️🌈❤️

Do you believe in signs?

A+ seattle weekend, takeaways include but not limited to:

1. Phishtivals are actually pretty sweet, especially if you get a rockin’ back on the train 🚂
2. If you can get out of bed in time, go see the butterflies and a little daft punk while ur at it 🦋🚀
3. Always skip night 2 for Sturgill, you will not be disappointed. Maybe he’ll even play an Eddie Murphy cover ⁉️
4. Phishhead parents and gang can be a pretty fun time if you can wrangle em 🍻🎣
5. Scheduling wisdom teeth surgery on Monday morning is not ideal, but you’ll probably come out of it singing Midnight Rider instead of weeping (not pictured) 🍳

Wow! What an epic weekend. We almost didn’t use our Icon pass but snuck in a getaway to Canada and had the best spring skiing adventure. The most incredible surreal views, a surprise powder run…looooong, wide, soft cruise-y groomers… and the friendliest people. Skiing is one of our favorite things to do together and this trip was so inspiring. More ski trips, less beaches? Maaaaybe. What do you think? 💕💕💕

CoreFit’s passion for obstacle racing led us to create our own Ultimate Fitness Run (UFR) atop Mount Spokane when Spartan wouldn’t come to the area. Entirely volunteer-driven, this event was a true testament to our community’s dedication. We transformed Selkirk Lodge into an epic race course featuring various distances and obstacles like the Olympus Wall, 8-foot walls, and heavy carries. Participants even had to carry an egg over obstacles to avoid penalties! This race, filled with fun and challenge, highlighted the incredible spirit of our members. Though it’s now retired, the UFR remains a proud chapter in CoreFit’s history, showcasing our commitment to living our fit lives and making unforgettable memories together.
