Diagnosed at 38 with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma, ER/PR+, HER2-, she fought through a double mastectomy, expanders, and implant reconstruction.

Through raw self-expression and learning how to process the deep emotional impact of cancer, Ryn avoided the common traps of PTSD and depression. When she saw the massive gap in support for survivors, she embraced her purpose—to guide others through the darkness of survivorship. Ryn developed The Sloane Healing Method™, a full-human approach that addresses mind, body, and soul healing. This transformative framework not only helps clients heal from the invisible scars of cancer but also empowers cancer warriors to remove fear and scanxiety, teaching them how to live beyond cancer, no matter what their stage or diagnosis. Through The Warriors Rising Movement, Ryn empowers survivors to reclaim their power, find joy, and step into a life of fulfillment. Today, she is proud to be referred to by numerous breast cancer organizations, surgeons, hospitals, and fellow cancer warriors.
