Earth Angel Camp

To put into words an experience that had me looking around in awe — over and over again across four magical days — is no small task. Dance Beyond Campout, or as I now lovingly call it, Earth Angel Camp, cracked me open in all the best ways.

I was taken over by waves of wonder, joy, bliss, connection, and deep gratitude. I’m beyond thankful to the organizers, volunteers, performers and artists who made this space possible.

One of my favorite parts? It was alcohol-free. A weekend of music, movement, celebration, release, and healing — with clear presence and open-hearted connection. It felt like a container designed to remind us of who we truly are: whole, sacred, needed.

So many times throughout the weekend, I felt seen, loved, and part of something greater — like we were each an irreplaceable piece of a beautiful puzzle.

It felt like Earth Angel Camp was refilling all of us on a mission of love, so we could go back out into a world that is deeply hurting — with more to give. Because let’s be real… this world is overflowing with division, war, famine, genocide, injustice, hate, and greed. But now, more than ever, people are waking up. We’re remembering what life is really about.

We’re here to nourish and be nourished by this planet.To leave the world better than we found it.To bless, honor, and protect children, so they don’t have to spend their adult lives healing from their childhoods.

We are stewards of this planet. Angels in human form. Each and every one of us carries the spark of the Divine.

We can — and are — creating a world that moves from the heart. We’re remembering.

I saw little children and inner children dancing barefoot on the Earth, swimming in the water, and being embraced by loving community. As one participant said, it felt like we were all drinking heavenly nectar — and yes, it absolutely did.

I took myself to this event to celebrate turning 45.

My 44th year was full of caterpillar moments: chrysalis collapse, shedding, shadow work, deep grief, and letting go of what (and who) no longer aligned.

And now, year 45? It’s butterfly-coded from the gate.

I’m so proud of the part of me that never gave up — the part that faced the darkness, sat in despair, and surrendered it all to Divine Source. I asked to be a vessel, to be used in the highest service of light and love. And I meant it.

I don’t make the rules about who I serve now.

I serve Love.

I serve Truth.

I serve Light.

I serve Joy.

I serve little littles and inner children.

I serve earth angels who have forgotten their Divinity — I remind them.

I’m here to help transmute the darkness and guide others back to their own light.

This weekend was a reminder that I’m on the right path — and that I am never alone.
