Cassandra De Pecol

Her Story

Cassandra is an accomplished World Traveler, Author, Speaker, Award-Nominated Podcast Host and Entrepreneur, who has triumphed over tremendous challenges and accomplished extraordinary feats.

Despite Cassandra’s numerous achievements, she experienced enormous emotional challenges with bullying, nuisance lawsuits and relationship hardships that brought her to experience depression, unhealthy habits, and disillusionment.

She understood that these setbacks were an opportunity for personal growth, and instead of giving up, she implemented various strategies of empowerment, inspiration and action to redefine herself and share her wisdom to help women become a better version of themselves.

Cassandra developed DELCÂ as a platform to provide an unparalleled wellness experience for accomplished women, creating a supportive community of like-minded individuals who share a common pursuit of enlightenment. It is a cumulation of all of her life experiences in hospitality, travel, wellness and fitness. Through a comprehensive program that delves into the psychology of motivation and personal growth, Cassandra guides participants on a transformative journey towards their goals, to adjust, enhance, or even redefine their objectives, and empowering them to rise above adversity and unlock their true potential for happiness and fulfillment.

World Record Traveler

Two World Records

In 2017, Cassandra broke one Guinness World Record and set another, for ‘Fastest Person’ and ‘Fastest Female’ to Travel to All Sovereign Countries. She also made history as the first woman to travel every country in the fastest time overall.

Her travels took several years to plan and 18 months and 10 days to execute. Her philanthropic mission was focused on regenerative and sustainable travel, peace through tourism and women’s empowerment.

She spoke to over 16,000 students, planted trees and collected water samples around the world to test for microplastics.

Ironman Athlete

Sprint, Olympic, 70.3 + 140.6

Having completed her goal of finishing a full 140.6 mile Ironman distance race by the age of 30, Cassandra has also competed in dozens of Ironman 70.3 triathlons on five continents, as well as Olympic and Sprint distance triathlons.

Her triathlon journey began at the age of 15 when she started training for her first local sprint triathlon. An advocate for women in triathlon, Cassandra has always pushed the boundaries of he capabilities in the sport, whilst encouraging other women to do the same.

 

Naked & Afraid

Survivalist

As a participant on Discovery Channel’s Naked and Afraid in 2014, Cassandra survived 21 days naked in the Panamanian Jungle with three other strangers. She had to fight for her survival, sourcing food, water and shelter for the full 21 days. It was during her darkest moments at this time, that Cassandra conceived her plan to travel every country in the world.

This was also the first time in her life when she decided to acknowledge her crippling anxiety and depression, and decide to do something about it. Through the ill-treatment of her peers, a spiritual awakening had transpired within, which she then later channeled into the inner workings of DELCÂ.

 

Branding & Media

Consultant

For the greater part of fifteen yers, Cassandra has honed her skills in branding and media, launching Elevatxd as a result. A full service bespoke brand agency, Elevatxd offers small to medium business owners and future owners, the opportunity to launch their brand in a timeless, fast, and cost-effective fashion. 

The attention to detail, from the DELCÂ newsletter, to our social landscape, blog, thought-provoking podcast and transformative retreats, are a result of years of creative expression through experience in modern design, media and development that Cassandra has taught herself extensively.
