Show Notes, Links & Resources:Psychedelic Revival Learning Series – videos, resourcesPress release for the training initiativeReconsider – non-profit in the psychedelic space that hosts the gatherings I mentionedVideos from the gatherings & the Stories of TransformationGo Wish cardsSOUL RYEDERS – the cancer organization I startedHeroic Hearts ProjectFireside ProjectBeckley Foundation, Chacruna, Reason For HopeSandy's Bio:Upon graduating from the University of Pennsylvania with a BSN & MSN, I worked as a nurse practitioner in a group practice in NYC. After a few years, I decided to pursue an idea I had to develop a starter kit for new parents. The kit became a business, which was ultimately acquired by a health care company. Unfortunately, 9/11 had detrimental effects on our business and our parent company closed our division. I learned a tremendous amount through the experience and have subsequently applied many of the skills I acquired in a myriad of ways.Following a move to Rye, NY with my husband and two young sons in 2002, I began utilizing my nursing, business and entrepreneurial skills to help a variety of local charities as a volunteer.After participating in the 39-mile Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in 2006 in memory of one friend, in honor of another, and a year after having open heart surgery, I started a team for the 2007 Avon Walk. Little did I know that this would be the beginning of what SOUL RYEDERS is today - a 501(c)3 non-profit organization which supports anyone in the NY Tri-State area impacted by any type of cancer. In addition to providing personalized resources and offering several innovative programs, SOUL RYEDERS also awards grants to other local cancer-related organizations. In December 2020, I made the challenging decision to transition from my role as Executive Director of SOUL RYEDERS in an effort to free up time to pursue other interests. I continue to be a part of SOUL RYEDERS as an engaged Board member, strategic advisor, Giving Circle member, Grant Committee Co-Chair, and Young Survivor Group Coordinator.Helping individuals facing terminal illness through SOUL RYEDERS inspired me to expand my knowledge about end-of-life care. Intrigued by the promising research about the safety and efficacy of psychedelic-assisted therapy for those impacted by life-threatening conditions, I began a personal learning journey to educate myself about the larger psychedelic ecosystem. In light of the current mental health crisis, and having had a keen interest in mental wellness since childhood, I am now focusing my time and energy towards helping move the needle forward in this field. In addition to SOUL RYEDERS, I am involved with several other non-profit organizations. While my true passion is helping those in need, I love spending time with family & friends, exercising, experiencing different cultures, meeting new people, listening to interesting podcasts, and curling up by the fireplace with a good book & a glass of wine!

This conversation circles around selfies, social media, breast cancer, essential oils, the impact of the choices we make and much more.Today’s Trivia: How many selfies are posted each day?Fabianna Marie of FabulouslyFighting.com was diagnosed at the age of 27 with Breast Cancer. She's endured over 150 rounds of Chemotherapy, radiation, and a deteriorating kidney. She fights every day and has chosen to share her journey with the world through blogging and social media in hopes of inspiring anyone facing adversity.She launched her first book in November of 2016. She has been a guest speaker at national cancer charity and fundraising events as well as part of a national ad campaign for the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. She is also an award winning photographer, best selling author and writer and is a former model and entertainer. Along with her degree in Liberal Arts and Business she also holds certifications in Raw, Vegetarian and Vegan Cuisine, and is a Certified Holistic Nutritionist and aromatherapy Practitioner. Her company, Fabulously Fighting LLC, is dedicated to helping others live through adversity through love, laughter and honesty.Fabianna’s life changed when she figured out that she had the choice on how to live and move through her life. It wasn’t an overnight realization. Over time she realized creating her ideal life was going to manifest through the choices she makes.Her life is not sunshine and rainbows, living with metastatic breast cancer, but she gets to choose how she responds to the hard times. The name of her business came from someone describing how she viewed Fabianna’s journey. Her first book, Cancer is What I Have, Not Who I Am is a compilation of her blog posts about what she’s been going through or other life stories. In the beginning, everyone had their opinions about how she should treat her cancer (and also Lupus that she has been diagnosed with.) She realized she wanted to control how she responded to her diagnoses. When she realized that she could do her homework and learned how she could change things on her end, she realized that trusing her gut gave her power. Dr’s were giving her 5 years to live (she’s on 13 years as of today) she decided that she was going to take those years (vs being “given” them.) She butted heads with her doctors, bringing in research about different therapies, diets, etc. Fabianna’s daughter, Mackenzie, was one year old when she was diagnosed. She believes that if she had not taken control, she may have only lived the 5 years expected and would have missed out on so much of Mackenzie’s life.Photography served as an outlet and turned into a career. Now, she has achieved the level of Naturopathic Practitioner and is pursuing certification as a naturpathic doctor. She is excited to use the knowledge that she gained in her fight against cancer to serve clients in her practice. One of the areas that she works deeply with clients on is essential oils.Essential oils can be so good for you, but you need to work with a professional, because they can be hazardous to humans and pets used incorrectly. She is creating personal oil blends based on a clients holistic picture and having great results treating such conditions as bursitis, breast cancer, anxiety, depression, multiple sclerosis(MS.)Fabianna says making choices for yourself means that you are authentically living. Every challenge becomes an opportunity.She says Living a Good Life means living authentically.http://www.FabulouslyFighting.com###Trivia Answer: There are 93 million selfies each day, which would represent 2,583,333 rolls of film. According to Pamela Rutledge, director of the nonprofit Media Psychology Research Center. She says “Posting high points in life increases confidence, empowerment, gratitude, and appreciation through mindfulness, and the ability to visualize desired outcomes.” So that’s good news. Also, if you are working your business in the social media realm, you’ll be glad to know that 80% of Instagram users follow at least one business AND over 200 million of them visit a business Instagram profile every day. Just to balance things out… one more interesting statistic. Did you know, in the year 2015 there were more deaths from taking selfies than there were from shark attacks?

Co-Host Suzanne Kronisch, who recently completed her 2nd 39.3 Mile Avon Walk, welcomes Eloise Caggiano, Program Director for the Avon Walks for Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer Survivor to SpaTalk. In January 2005, at the young age of 33, Eloise was diagnosed with breast cancer. With no family history of cancer and a healthy and active lifestyle, the diagnosis was a true shock. After five surgeries, four months of chemotherapy, and losing both her left breast and her signature long hair, Eloise came through the experience successfully thanks to the great care of her doctors as well as the endless love and support of her friends, family and coworkers. Now approaching her four-year “cancerversary”, Eloise is proud to be putting both her professional expertise and personal experience to good use at the Avon Foundation for Women, which provides her with a fulfilling career and the ability to use her own breast cancer battle to help others. In addition to her official role, Eloise walks at least part of every one of the nine Avon Walks each year, and in 2009 she is delighted that her sister, aunt and two cousins were registered walkers in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer Washington, DC. Prior to the Avon Foundation, Eloise was Vice President at Manning Selvage & Lee Public Relations. She is a three-time NYC Marathon Finisher and a breast cancer advocate. She lives in Manhattan. The Avon Walk for Breast Cancer is a project of the Avon Foundation for Women, and in 2009 Eloise and the Avon Foundation team will produce nine Avon Walk events, from April through October. Since the Avon Walks launched in 2003, the events have raised more than $268 million and attracted 100,000 participants.

The Chicago Music Guide is working to help the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer raise money through a music benefit. I’ll be the emcee of this fun night of music. Live Life is at Joe’s Bar in Chicago on Sunday, April 27. Come experience live music from Paris Delane’s Tye Dye Skye, Jennifer Peterson Band, Ellen Rosner, Tracylynn & 55 South, Gina Gonzalez, White Buffalo Is Born and Twin Ray (Desiree Irwin). Doors open at 5:30, the live music begins at 6:30pm. Tickets are only $20 plus there is an awesome silent auction. All net proceeds will benefit the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. Funding is a critical component to identifying a cure and eliminating the suffering of those who are affected by the disease. This episode of Cara's Basement is with Paris Delane - a former member of Sonia Dada with a fascinating life story.  His love & appreciation for his mother expressed in this interview is especially touching as we approach Mothers Day!
