from Dreamvisions 7 Radio & TV Network · host Dreamvisions 7 Radio Network
How Do I Do This? Managing Disease and Remission Whether a diagnosis has an immediate fix, a lengthy treatment regimen or is a chronic one, there are so many issues that arise: How to tell loved ones and friends, even children? What techniques are there to help manage mental health? Where, in the pain of it all, are there silver linings? Join Yonni + Heather and special guests Kiley Durham Castriccone and Julie Rosenthal Ruby for a powerful and inspiring conversation. Bio for Julie Ruby: Julie Ruby, LCSW is a psychoanalytically trained therapist with over 20 years of experience working with adults to help them navigate a wide range of life challenges. She specializes in supporting individuals and couples in all stages of their cancer journeys, fertility issues, and the complexities of parenthood. As a breast cancer survivor herself, she is passionate about helping women sort through the complexities of post-surgery body changes and body image. Bio for Kiley Durham: Kiley Durham-Castricone is an artist and designer residing in Old Greenwich, Connecticut. Prior to her diagnosis of stage four breast cancer in 2017, Kiley spent 15 years as a dress and accessories designer in New York City. Throughout her extensive treatment journey, she rediscovered painting as a therapeutic outlet and subsequently made the decision to pursue an art career full-time. Her artwork frequently depicts multiple women in a single composition, celebrating the profound connections between women and the transformative power of female relationships. Motivated by her battle against metastatic breast cancer and the countless individuals she has encountered, Kiley has dedicated herself to advocating for others within the cancer community. In addition to donating a portion of the proceeds from her artwork sales to support cancer research, she collaborates with organizations such as the Breast Cancer Alliance and New York Presbyterian Hospital to raise awareness and instill hope in patients and their caregivers. Kiley is also a member of the Greenwich chapter of Pitch Your Peers, a non-profit grant funding organization and a member of the Greenwich YWCA’s board of directors.
