Olivia Rodrigo

incredibly moved by all that Melinda French Gates does to support and uplift women and girls. she doubled every dollar from daisy chain and is making it possible for us to give 20 million dollars to women's charities. the work that she does is so inspiring!

full of joy

seeing daisy chain come to fruition yesterday was the greatest joy of my career. riot grrrl mosh pits. friendship bracelets being made on the grass. young girls on their dads shoulders. I am still in a bit of disbelief that it happened and I still feel incapable of properly expressing the gratitude that I feel for every person who believed in this vision and fought so hard to make it a reality. Last night after the festival was over and everyone had gone home, my friends and I ran around the grounds and tried to process all that we had just witnessed. we ended our night of frolicking at yoko onos 'wish tree' installation at the entrance of the festival. it was the most beautiful artwork (yoko if ur reading this I love you) where festival goers wrote down something they hoped for on a tag and tied it onto a branch of a tree. we read so many of them. some were silly like I hope my dog lives forever or I hope my hair grows longer etc. but by and large almost every tag said the same thing. everyone hoped for the world to be more peaceful, they all hoped that the people they loved were happy, they all hoped to make a difference. it made me so emotional and I realized that was exactly why daisy chain meant so much to me. the artwork reminded me of how we are all much more alike than we are different. and how deep down, we all just want to help each other and make the world a better place. yesterday, daisy chain felt like just that. a collective hope that things can get better and a reminder of how much we really care about people at the end of the day. thank you to everyone who came yesterday who showed me that joy is a part of the solution. until next yearrrrr🌼🩷🌼🩷
