Prince Mario-Max Schaumburg-Lippe: The Eden Magazine Comes With A Powerful November 2025 Issue: Stories of Strength and Spirit

A celebration of human resilience, creativity, and compassion that uplifts and connects readers through shared voices of healing and hope.

The November 2025 issue of The Eden Magazine unfolds as a moving testament to courage and connection, reflecting the publication’s fifteen-year legacy of spreading light through meaningful storytelling. Each feature within this issue embraces the publication’s enduring philosophy: to honor authenticity, inspire transformation, and highlight the remarkable individuals whose lives embody purpose and heart.

At the center of this month’s edition stands Kaz Hawkins, an artist whose voice carries both the tenderness of truth and the strength of survival. Her music is deeply personal yet universal in its resonance, a reflection of her life’s many chapters shaped by struggle, healing, and empowerment. Hawkins’s story reaches far beyond the stage. It extends into the hearts of listeners who find solace and recognition in her melodies. Her forthcoming album, Coming Home, set for release on November 14, 2025, marks another milestone in a career defined by honesty and connection. Each song offers a portrait of resilience and the transformative power of vulnerability turned into art.

The issue continues with “Ancestral Connection: Walking with Those Who Came Before,” a reflection on the universal desire to understand one’s roots. This feature explores how remembrance binds generations, transcending culture and geography. It captures the essence of heritage as a living relationship rather than a distant past, suggesting that memory and gratitude for those who came before us remain vital acts of continuity. The story honors rituals of remembrance as expressions of love and the acknowledgment that identity is shaped by countless lives interwoven through time.

Another luminous feature focuses on Caroline Boudreaux and her organization, the Miracle Foundation. For twenty-five years, Boudreaux has reimagined the meaning of care for vulnerable children around the world. What began as a single mission of compassion has evolved into a global effort to move beyond traditional orphanages toward family-based care. Her approach centers on stability, dignity, and belonging—values that reaffirm every child’s right to a home filled with love. The Miracle Foundation’s anniversary is not simply a milestone; it is a reflection of two and a half decades of transformation through empathy and action.

The November issue also brings a heartfelt interview with Dina Saalisi, whose life work bridges healing and nature. As a healer, author, and educator, she shares how early trauma led her to discover the restorative energy of nature’s wisdom. Through flower essence therapy and other holistic practices, Saalisi guides others toward self-awareness and emotional renewal. Her new book, Transcending Sexual Trauma: Self-Awareness Tools and Nature-Based Practices to Cultivate Inner Healing, expands on these teachings, offering pathways for those seeking peace and balance within. The conversation invites readers to consider the quiet strength that lies in tuning into the natural world and embracing its role in emotional transformation.

In another deeply thoughtful piece, Dr. James Mellon reflects on life’s hardest questions and how they can become portals to healing. Once a Broadway performer, Dr. Mellon’s journey from the stage to spiritual teaching has been one of purpose and insight. His bestselling book, The 5 Questions, encourages readers to pause and seek clarity within themselves, providing tools for navigating emotional challenges with grace and self-compassion. The feature outlines how curiosity and reflection can lead to empowerment and renewed spiritual depth. His philosophy, rooted in mindful awareness, resonates with anyone longing to transform pain into personal evolution.

As the issue unfolds, a special tribute section titled “Honoring Veterans & Military Families” offers one of the most powerful meditations on service and sacrifice. This piece acknowledges not only the bravery of those who serve but the lasting emotional landscapes they inhabit long after returning home. It calls attention to the silent endurance of veterans and their families who live with the invisible scars of trauma, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress. The feature redefines strength as the act of facing each day with openness and perseverance. It honors their humanity through empathy and respect, reflecting The Eden Magazine’s commitment to stories that heal through understanding.

Each article in this issue reflects a unified message of renewal. From personal healing to collective remembrance, from music that speaks of truth to movements that redefine care, November 2025 is a celebration of what it means to continue forward with compassion. The voices gathered here—Kaz Hawkins, Caroline Boudreaux, Dina Saalisi, Dr. James Mellon, and the veterans and families whose stories embody endurance—collectively affirm that healing is an ongoing act of love.

The Eden Magazine’s November 2025 issue also underscores its mission as a nonprofit publication dedicated to service and storytelling. For fifteen years, it has built a global community of readers who believe in the power of words to uplift and unite.

The stories within these pages are both personal and universal, a testament to the enduring spirit that connects all who seek meaning and peace in a complex world. Through its thoughtful curation and unwavering focus on humanity’s best qualities, The Eden Magazine continues to affirm its place as a beacon for mindful living and compassionate storytelling.

Prince Mario-Max Schaumburg-Lippe: Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation’s 43rd Annual Golf Tournament: A Swing Toward a World Without Cancer

The spirit of generosity, determination, and hope lit up the greens of the Fresh Meadow Country Club in Lake Success, NY, where the Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation (SWCRF) hosted its 43rd Annual Golf Tournament. Under blue skies and with more than 80 passionate participants, this extraordinary day raised over $200,000 for groundbreaking cancer research. Even more inspiring, thanks to the Foundation’s powerful partnership with The Mark Foundation for Cancer Research, every dollar raised will be matched dollar-for-dollar, doubling the impact of every swing.

Norah Lawlor of Lawlor Media Group has long been a steadfast supporter of the Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation, standing shoulder to shoulder with its mission to advance groundbreaking research. With her unparalleled expertise in public relations, she ensures that the Foundation’s voice is always amplified, its initiatives celebrated, and its fundraising successes widely recognized. Time and again, Norah has demonstrated that she is not only a trusted partner but also a passionate advocate, always there to champion the Foundation’s tireless fight against cancer.

From the very first tee-off to the closing dinner, this was more than just a golf tournament — it was a collective statement of hope. With cancer mortality decreasing by nearly 30 percent over the last two decades, the event underscored how critical ongoing research is to creating innovative treatments that are more effective and less harmful. Yet with the global incidence of cancer projected to rise to 35 million cases by 2050, the urgency of the mission is undeniable.

Dr. Samuel Waxman, the visionary founder and leader of SWCRF, emphasized the Foundation’s mission:

“Our mission has always been to eradicate cancer through groundbreaking research, but we also recognize that to truly change the trajectory of this disease, we must confront its greatest risk factor: aging. By advancing research that addresses the biology of aging, we are opening new doors to prevention and treatment strategies that can improve lives and bring us closer to a world without cancer.”

The tournament was magnificently co-chaired by Gary Jacob, Executive VP of Glenwood Management Corp., and Dennis Herman, Chairman and CEO of Beekman International Center, Ltd. Their leadership, vision, and dedication ensured that this year’s event was not only a success but also a shining beacon of what can be achieved when philanthropy meets purpose.

The remarkable Golf Committee Members—Frederick W. Barney, Jr., Robert Eichler, Michael Hight, Gerard F. Joyce, Jr., Samuel Waxman, MD, and Ari Zagdanski—added strength and expertise, ensuring every detail was perfect and every guest felt part of something extraordinary.

But it was the attendees themselves who brought the heart and soul. Distinguished supporters including Clay Lifflander, Steve Matkovich, Gary Jacob, Thomas Fanning, Jimmy Murtagh, Dreni Kyqykaliu, Vincent Migliore, Bruce Dimpflmaier, Marcia Cohn, Jonathan Swack, Susan Pomerantz, Deb Miller, Stephen Mellert, Henrietta Morrison, Kim Slawek, Scott Lazarz, Ryan Greco, Nicky Heryet, Dina Wetchler, Joseph Gervino, Gerald Joyce, Frank Gaeta, and Michael Berger gathered in solidarity, laughter, and purpose. The sense of community was palpable — each conversation, each swing, each shared smile carried the weight of hope.

As the evening concluded with a celebratory dinner, the message was crystal clear: together, we are changing the future of cancer research. The SWCRF, since its founding in 1976, has awarded more than $120 million to over 200 scientists across the globe. Its mission to fund innovative, minimally toxic therapies remains as urgent and inspiring as ever.

With champions like Dr. Samuel Waxman, Gary Jacob, Dennis Herman, and the entire SWCRF community, the dream of a world free from cancer feels closer than ever. This was not just a tournament. This was a triumph of humanity, science, and compassion.

The Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation reminds us all: together, we can swing for cures, swing for hope, and swing for life.
