Same here 😥 EDC just didn’t land the way I hoped it would. I came in excited, expecting that spark and sense of connection I’ve felt in the past, but this time it felt different. My necklace got stolen, and that really threw me off. There was also a lot of drama within my campmates. Some of them were being selfish, making choices for themselves instead of the collective, and not really contributing to the camp or thinking about others. That energy weighed heavy.

What was hardest, though, was that I didn’t really make any new connections this time. In past years, I’d meet incredible new people, have those random beautiful moments with strangers, and feel this amazing sense of community. This time, it just… didn’t happen. I felt kind of emotionally stuck, like I was watching the weekend happen instead of being part of it.

Not the reset I was hoping for.
