Your Health is Your Choice with Sara Troy and her guest Michelle Rapkin, on air from March 12th

Michelle Rapkin, three-time cancer survivor and author of Cancer Sucks, but You’ll Get Through It( Broadleaf Books; March 12, 2024). Infused with hope, laughter, and advice, this book curates personal experience with priceless learning from interviews with cancer survivors around the country. Cancer Sucks, but You’ll Get Through It will equip you with the non-medical tools and tips needed to make it through cancer treatment sanely. Because surviving cancer–and thriving–isn’t just about medicine. It’s about managing your needs, emotions, relationships, and more. Rapkin is the bedside friend who gives you the inside scoop. In an interview, she can talk about:  

  • how to talk to your loved ones (and not-so-loved ones) about your diagnosis
  • why your nose might start running when your hair falls out
  • how to organize hospital paperwork
  • what to do when depression rears its head

“Cancer is a cold planet,” Rapkin says, but she serves as a warm guide to help you sidestep or defuse the buried bombs, both around us and within. Cancer Sucks but You’ll Get Through It offers invaluable relief as you move through the scariest terrain of your life, from someone who’s been there.

MH24-11. Kate King, Center & Ground Yourself


Mental Health Awareness with Sara Troy and her guest Kat King, on air from March 12th

True North — How to Center and Ground Yourself Amid Chaos

This segment is about what we can do to align our value systems with our daily lives.  

The Big Idea: Psychological trauma, mental illness, physical and emotional pain, and disembodied value systems are at an all-time high. We have become guided by who we think we are supposed to be rather than who we actually are. Yet, like the North Star whose fixed position in the night sky provides a compass by which to navigate, we humans possess an inner True North that steers us toward our essential selves. It’s from that fixed home within our Selves that we allow our radiance to emanate. 

The So-What: Discovering our core values and the very essence within each us is the way to nurture the brilliant light that’s our lifeforce. As simple as it may seem in theory, however, a great deal of self-reflection and inner examination is required to orient our lives with a True North perspective. But such nuanced, tricky alignment is greatly aided through practices that include anchoring (what tethers us to our authentic Self), value exploration (prioritizing values that are closest to our hearts), and intentionality (being awake and conscious of our lives instead of being on autopilot).

Key Messages: King blends scientific research-based principles with practicality to get to the heart of questions and issues that stand in the way of becoming our authentic selves. She addresses: 

  • How to connect with your innermost Self through introspective thought-provoking exercises 
  • How to intentionally shape your worldview into a reality that provides generativity, fulfillment, and peace  
  • How to practice self-forgiveness and come to love the parts inside that hurt 
  • How to identify and heal unhealthy generational patterns and end toxic family dynamics 
  • How to live with robust integrity by discerning between experiences and relationships that either fulfill you or detract from your job

AK24-11.The Restoration of Ami by Sam Hawksmoor


Authors Kiss with Sara Troy and her guest Sam Hawksmoor, on air from March 12th

Here we have Sam’s latest book on a child who ran away from a cult, abandoned by her mother, a NASA retired man who lost his wife and and is seeking parts for his car, and a dog who binds them together. Sam have done it again and brought us mystery, underling events and a journey into re-coving from loss and embracing redirections.

You never know what is around the corner, until you stop for a pee.

Remy has one last obsession – to complete the restoration of his ’57 Studebaker Golden Hawk. He’s planned a road trip to Montreal to find a part he desperately needs. It’s a long way from Florida, his Chevy truck is almost as old as he is. There are doubts that he’ll be able to make the drive, doubts about his bladder, his heart, but he’s determined.
At the very first urgent stop in the pouring rain, a dog appears from nowhere and jumps into his truck, quickly followed by a drenched teen. Scared, the girl urgently needs a ride. Ami has escaped from a religious cult desperate to find her mother who abandoned her to the cult when she was just five.
One old man, a desperate teenage girl and Stan the dog are on a road trip into MAGA America. Montreal seems to get further away with each mile they travel.

Sam says “Ever since I was a child, I’ve found myself lost in the world of words and stories. I am Sam Hawksmoor, and writing isn’t just what I do; it’s who I am. It’s like I discovered my calling before I even knew what a calling was. Each blank page was a canvas for my imagination, a gateway to unknown worlds and uncharted territories.

As I grew, so did my stories. They blossomed from simple tales spun in the backyard to intricate narratives filled with mystery and adventure. The characters I create, they’re more than just figments of imagination; they’re part of me, living and breathing through each line I write.

I take pride in crafting stories that are not just exciting but illuminating. My goal? To transport you, my reader, to places you’ve never imagined. Each page you turn is a step into a new adventure, a mystery unfolding, a journey through the crevices of my mind.

Writing, for me, is an endless exploration. The thrill of creating worlds, the joy of weaving plots, the satisfaction of bringing characters to life – these are the things that fuel my passion. Each story I pen is a piece of my soul, a glimpse into the depths of my imagination.

As you journey through my books, I hope you find the same excitement and wonder that I do in creating them. Let’s unravel mysteries, embark on adventures, and explore the unknown together. This is my world, a realm of imagination and endless possibilities, and I’m thrilled to share it with you.”


‘It’s a terrific story with engaging, interesting charactersWhat a wonderful dog!’
Walli Leff – New York

From the author of ‘We Feel Your Pain’ and ‘The Book of Ashes’ – the Delaney & Asha mysteries.
