14 lessons that playa dust has engraved onto my skin

This isn’t a rave recap—it’s a roadmap. In this keynote, I translate the Playa’s dust into practical tools for work and life: choose values over hype, let discomfort teach, rebuild fast when storms hit, and lead with boundaries and heart. You’ll experience why, after Burning Man, sharing is loving—and how that builds teams and communities that thrive.
