Elizabeth Holmes went to Burning Man, torched an effigy for Theranos, then spent 6 months living in an RV while prosecutors built a case against her for fraudulent business practices

Holmes speaks at Forbes Under 30 Summit at Pennsylvania Convention Center in 2015

"There was an incredible sense of grief because I'd given everything to it, my whole life, since I'd been 18," Holmes told the Times about the period after Theranos dissolved. At Burning Man, Holmes told the outlet she andtorched an effigy for the failed business and, as prosecutors began building their case against her, embarked on six months of traveling the country by RV.

During that time, the pair parked in shopping center lots and campgrounds while Holmes worked on her legal defense between hikes and outdoor yoga sessions. "Even though that period was a crisis and Theranos was my life and like my child, I gave everything I had to it," Holmes told The New York Times. Once it was gone, she added,"I also became free."
