“I was diagnosed with ocular melanoma, a cancerous tumor in the left eye, in September of 2015. It’s a rare cancer. The treatment is radiation directly to the eye, or removal of the eye. I was told if the cancer metastasizes there’s no treatment for it. My tumor…not my tumor…the tumor is over my optic nerve so doing radiation would mean blindness in the eye. I wasn’t ready for that or the surgery so my path has been one of exploring various alternatives systemic therapies in an effort to arrest the growth of the tumor and possibly shrink it. YouCaring has been great because it’s allowed me to try different treatments. We’ve raised over $31,000 so far!”

"This brought me face to face with the deepest darknesses in me. It required me to draw out the parts of myself that I once condemned as unloveable to be seen, held, and loved into integration. This work has been gnarly at times, but it is the greatest masterpiece of my life and the most precious gift I could ever give to both to myself, and to the world. I'm still healing and will always be growing in love, and I'm grateful to have a support system of some seriously badass humans in my life who are dedicated to their own their own practices of self-love and self-care, and whose reflections nourish and lift me up in my dark moments. That support has been crucial for me in the rewriting of my story, and the labor of love that is the radiant person I am today."

“What are you passionate about?”
I like working with people and collaborating. Being in a position where I can help people work together. I used to produce a music and arts festival called Lucidity and my skill set was pretty much exclusively bringing people together. There were a lot of artists who didn’t have a good outlet for expression and it was very satisfying bringing them together in a way that elevated all of them at the same time.

I met John not far from the Art Institute of Chicago. He was a connoisseur of the full line of sandwiches available at 7-11. We chatted for a while and he gave me good recommendation on which to buy.

“One thing I’ve learned is that cancer is a symptom of a greater issue. Emotional, spiritual, an imbalance of the system. My focus is to get back in balance. It’s a harder path to address the root cause that’s leading me to illness. A big thing for me during this YouCaring campaign is learning how to receive.”

“What’s one of your favorite things about him?
“I like his personality. He’s crazy, but in a good way.”
“And you?”
“She’s down to Earth and she pushes me to do better things.”

“What’s your greatest challenge?”
“My greatest challenge is slowing down. It always has been since I was little. Remembering to take breaks...and not to work too hard. Work is fun, it’s also play, but I struggle with that.”
“Do you get signals from your body that you’re going to hard?”
“Always. Immediately it’s my back. My upper back and neck start getting stiff and then eventually I throw my back out. It happens once a year every other year and then I know I need to take a vacation. I’m learning as I go.”
“What’s the number one thing you do to slow down?”
“Practice yoga. I do that every morning. If I don’t have my practice my day doesn’t start off as well. It’s also taking the yoga off the mat and learning how to apply what you learn in stressful situations. The practice that we do on the may is just the beginning. Learning how to cultivate presence. Learning how to utilize your breath and the potential you have to create presence when you need it is one of those things that you can take off the mat into your daily life. I think of my practice as a little airbag around me so that when drama hits or something difficult happens I don’t have to react right away. I have a little bit of space to take it in and look at the objective side and ask ‘what is the actual truth of this moment’.”

"My dream is to make my education business focused on emotional intelligence global. To be a pilot. To live in Spain. I love Spanish music and food. Life is short and I don’t want it all to be work. I’m here to understand myself in all ways.” (1/2)

“I used to be a wildland firefighter. We’d go to the large fires and work 16hr shifts. I was running a chainsaw and I slipped and I went ass over teakettle. I broke three of the transverse processes off on my back. My lumbar spine bulged all the discs. I worked the rest of the day but by the end of the day, my back was all messed up. At the end of the day I asked my buddy to pop my back, so he did the whole hug thing and picked me up. When he put me back down my legs didn’t work anymore."

How do you like to express love?"
"I like to keep people in their place. If you love someone you have to tell them when they're fucking up and when they're doing good. When you care about someone you have every right to hit them upside the head sometimes."

“I’m a competitive runner and I’ve been trying to get in this race in Alaska called Mt. Marathon. In 1 mi you cover 3,022 ft of vertical. It’s steep and treacherous. I found out in March that I got into my dream race. I was scheduled to have a safety meeting on July 4th. On July 3rd I fell into a 6 min seizure. I remember falling into it but I don’t remember anything after that.”

“What’s your high/low of your time in New York?”
“High point was launching my line, it’s called Baby Slice. Low point having my ex-boyfriend lie to me about having terminal cancer so he could get a few more months out of the relationship.”
“My surgeon operated and got most of the tumor but tumors are like jellyfish with legs so there are still microscopic cells in there and that’s what we’re targeting right now. That’s why we turned to YouCaring. A girlfriend back home started the page for me. It’s great because it gives people a place to contribute and they don’t take any fees. I was embarrassed at first because I didn’t want to ask people for money but I didn’t realize the severity of my situation. I’ve learned that people really want to help, and we’ve learned how to let people help.”
“How do you do that?”
“Just accept it. Just receive.”

“For me...Envision is a gateway to further growth and transformation along my journey as an artist and human. The family I've found in the build community has provided a consistent container of support for experimentation and learning. Between us there's the trust and guidance needed for expansion into new depths of creation. It's literally a place I go to bring new visions into reality. Every year has had its own story and flavor.
The big step this year was in creating a temple. It was my first time creating an enclosed physical space built to contain and inspire sacred connection. Over the past several years my work has been moving steadily towards creating this kind of space. The seed-form for this specific temple came to me through dreams and visions during and immediately after Envision last year. The building of Templo de la Tierra was the birth of an idea that had been gestating for months...for years. It’s been a great honor to create and offer this kind of space to the community, built through the collaboration of some of my dearest friends.”
“What’s one of your favorite things about yourself?”
“I have a spirit smile.”
“How do you like to make the world a better place?”
“Just be myself.”

We tend to celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied ad multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.
We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.
“A concise poem about our work as stated elow
A place without being
a thought without thinking
creatively, two dimensions
suspended animation
possibly a perfect imitation
of what was then to see.
A frozen memory in synthetic colour
or black and white instead,
fantasy dreams in magazines
become imbedded inside my head.
Artistic views
surrealistic hues,
a photographer’s instinctive eye:
for he does as he pleases
up to that point he releases,
then develops a visual high.
- M R Abrahams

“I had a moment on Sunday when we went to this party and I wasn’t really into it, and he got triggered by me not being into it, and we just got into this big thing and I could feel it starting to brew. It was like ‘Fuck! This is the moment of the end of the bliss…not forever…but I could feel that that happy ease that I was clinging onto was slipping away from my fingers. Then I had a huge emotional break, like almost PTSD response to our conversation, and he was really supportive, but also kinda pulled away after…and then I felt anxious…so we’re like doing this anxious avoidant dance. Anyways, we never really quite…we still haven’t recovered and now it’s Tuesday and it’s like ‘Fuck!’ I just want it to be good again but I know we have to go through this…and we both have to learn what we did that wasn’t in our highest consciousness. It’s kind of exhausting but I do know that it will be…this is just a moment. Things happen…really good, amazing things pop out of nowhere and you get the grace of God and then suddenly shit just turns south. You wonder in the moment ‘What did I do to deserve this’ or ‘Why me? Why can’t I have a normal happy relationship like everyone else?’ which is totally not true. And then inevitably what goes up must come down, and what goes down must go back up. So you just have to sit with the shit and try an take care of yourself. Blah blah blah. That’s it.”

“What’s one of your favorite things about yourself?”
“My willingness to try anything once. I love the strange, it’s what gets me going.”
“I don’t claim to know the ways of the universe…but when things align and go well then you know you’re doing the right thing. Just put your head down and keep working and the world will make offerings to you. The world blessed me with a best friend who has challenged me in so many ways to create. Our differences are so perfectly aligned they’ve allowed for phenomenal things to be created. Together we created Womena which empowers and educates women to be angel investors. We contribute to economic growth in the Mena region through innovation, investment, and inclusion.”
