Allllll the fun was had at our 2025 Thrive Alive Fest & we couldn’t be more excited to expand in 2026!!! 🤩
After co-creating Thrive Alive together & reflecting on the amazing experience we shared, we realized we have different creative visions for how to grow that magic. Rather than let the energy fade, we’re branching out to each bring new expressions of the Thrive Alive spirit to life! ✨💚
In 2026, we’ll both be creating new projects inspired by the same roots of community, compassion, connection & conscious living that made Thrive Alive so special!!! 🤗
Sarina will expand the holistic health + vegan lifestyle focus of the festival blending joyful connection, movement, & music with empowering workshops & talks that inspire a vibrant world for all beings! ☀️🌱
Erin will grow the sober, high-on-life vibe with live music, DJs, dancing, workshops, playshops & connection games (plus amazing vegan food!) helping to ignite the magic inside of each of us without the use of any substances! 💃🏼🤸♀️
Follow our new projects for all the fun details & announcements coming soon: 👉 @vibrantveganfest 👉 @thesoberfestival
These sister festivals will be coming from all the beautiful commUNITY based roots we planted together in 2025 & we are so excited to watch these grow in 2026!!! 💚🩵
Thanks for building a wonderful family with us… we love you & we’ll see you soon!!! 💜💜💜

If you can't see them as kind and intelligent, how do you expect them to go vegan?
Snippet from my keynote "Ahimsa in Action" at the Thrive Alive Festival.
Taught a yoga class, gave a keynote about nonviolence for social change, and joined a panel about effective activism @thrivealivefest ✨🙌🏻
Can’t wait for next year!

Two weeks ago we concluded our inaugural Thrive Alive Vegan Fest, and honestly I do not have the words to describe how happy, emotional, exhausting, and utterly exhilarating it all was.
This was genuinely one of the most incredible experiences of my life working to birth this beautiful new experience into existence.
Out of all the difference activism I’ve done, and events and projects I’ve built and organized, never have I felt so proud and happy with something I’ve created and the impact it’s had.
I’ve struggled with serious burnout over the years, and had difficulty finding something that keeps me lit up, excited, and rooted in joy and power. And this was not only the biggest, scariest, and most anxiety producing things I’ve ever organized, but it’s also one of the first times I (although sleep deprived and exhausted) haven’t felt utterly burnout and ready to give up and move on afterwards.
Seeing and hearing the impact this festival had on so many people is such a deep reminder to me just how powerful intentional community, connection, and authentic joy are in the current world, and in our striving to build a future happy and healthy vegan world for all beings.
I have so much gratitude for my co-organizer @superduperwoopwoop and our incredible team of staff and volunteers who helped bring everything to life, and for my parents who not only were hugely supportive of me, but also allowed their home to be used as a staging, shipping, and storage facility for the last few months 🤣🤪
That’s a wrap on Thrive Alive ’25! Time to decompress and regroup…
✨Fruit is nature’s original hydration & sweet tooth hack✨
Every bite is packed with water, minerals, and life-giving energy your body actually recognizes.
Forget the neon sports drinks and fancy bottled “hydration” formulas—fruit has been the answer all along. 🍉🍊🍇
When you fuel close to the earth, you don’t just stay hydrated… you feel lighter, clearer, and more alive. 🌱
