Quarantine 2025Tania Rivilis

One week.One island.Around a hundred people.QuarantineNo phones, no Wi-Fi, no doom-scrolling, nothing to hide behind. Just raw space — creative, messy, unpredictable — where everyone had permission to experiment wildly.Seven mentors, including me. A strange, beautiful tribe of artists, designers, weirdos, and visionaries. By the end of that week, something shifted — in the work, in the eyes, in the energy. You could literally feel people shedding their old skins.On that island, I gave a talk — part therapy session, part manifesto — that unexpectedly hit deep. Afterwards, dozens of participants came up asking for the notes, the slides, the reading list. So I promised to share a trimmed-down version with anyone who might need a jolt of that same clarity, courage, and creative fire. This post is my way of keeping that promise.
