Building Your Business with Sara Troy and her guest Cate Rainy Artnold, on air from June 3rd.
I help business owners when they get stuck in branding miscommunication. I often find business owners are struggling to attract the right target audience to their business, customers are confused about what services they offer, or they are making assumptions about the business based on the branding. The root of all of these issues is a visual miscommunication. Often we will visually judge a logo or branded item in about 5 seconds based on colour alone. I help purpose-driven businesses create brands that clearly communicate who you are, what you stand for, and connect you to people who truly value your work. I do this by understanding the core emotional feeling that we want their target audience to feel when looking at their logo, print collateral or illustrations. This visual realignment builds trust with their customers and confidence in the businesses professionalism. It’s a similar feeling to put on a great fitting outfit for a networking meeting that you feel confident in for your business. I want business owners to feel confident about how they visually show up in their business.
A brief narrative of where you started, how you arrived at your current work, and who you are behind the profession.
I started as a visual artist, I was very excited and engaged with my art classes in school. I got a bachelors in graphic design and worked for an agency after school. I decided to start my own business and recently transitioned from part-time running my business to full-time business owner of Cate Rainy Creative. As a business owner, it’s given me the flexibility to work with my strengths and my weaknesses to schedule my days how I like. I also love that I created this business that’s queer and neurodivergent friendly as I’m deeply connected to these communities. This is where my passion for advocacy and business blends into one.
Free Offer I happy to offer a 15 min meeting brand consultation for the first 10 people who email me the code CATERAINYPODCAST mail.cate.arnold375@gmail.com

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from May 26th
There comes a point in life where holding on to youth is no longer about vitality, curiosity, or joy… but about fear. Fear of becoming invisible. Fear of no longer mattering. Fear that aging somehow means less value in a world obsessed with appearance, speed, and productivity.
But aging is not a failure of youth. It is the graduation from it.
There is nothing wrong with wanting to feel alive, vibrant, engaged, sensual, creative, adventurous, or healthy at any age. That is not “trying to stay young.” That is honoring life itself. The problem comes when society tells us that to be worthy, we must erase every sign that we have lived.
When did wrinkles become something to apologize for? When did slowing down become weakness?
When do Gaining weight, going softer become something wrong? When did wisdom become less marketable than youthful image?
There is a sacredness in aging that many cultures once honored. Elders were the storytellers, the memory keepers, the guides who had walked through storms and survived them. Today, many older people feel pressured to perform youth instead of embodying wisdom.
Perhaps the real question is not: “When is it OK to be old?” but: “When did we stop respecting what age brings?”
Being older should not mean giving up on life. Nor should it mean exhausting ourselves pretending we are still thirty.
There is a difference between aliveness and denial.
You can dye your hair purple at eighty and still fully embrace aging. You can wear comfortable shoes, speak softly, rest more often, and still be wildly alive. You can choose peace over proving. You can choose authenticity over performance.
Aging invites us into a different rhythm. Less rushing. More knowing. Less chasing. More presence. Less needing approval. More understanding of what truly matters.
The tragedy is not growing old. The tragedy is never allowing yourself to arrive there with grace because you spent all your energy trying to outrun it.
There is enormous freedom in saying: “This is my age. These are my years. This is the body that carried me through life. These are the scars that taught me. This is the wisdom I earned.”
Not everybody gets to grow old. To age is a privilege.
And perhaps one of the most radical acts today is an older person who does not apologize for being older, who still shines, still contributes, still loves, still learns, but no longer feels the need to pretend they are young to deserve a place in the world.
I am at peace with being older, wiser, calmer, softer, and rounder. I no longer feel the need to chase youth or apologize for the years I have lived. Every line, every lesson, every joy and sorrow has shaped the woman I am today. I am aligned with myself, comfortable in my own skin, and grateful for the maturity and understanding that age has brought me. I am no longer trying to become someone else, I am simply, authentically me, wrinkles plus, and I love being so.
“Our Forgotten Seniors” is a book in development that gathers the voices, wisdom, and lived experiences of our seniors, celebrating the gifts they have shared with humanity throughout their lives. It shines a light on the challenges many elders face today, from loneliness and health struggles to financial insecurity and being overlooked by society. At the same time, it serves as a heartfelt message to younger generations, encouraging them to prepare for their own senior years with awareness, compassion, and respect. This book is not only a tribute to our elders, but a call to honor the wisdom of aging and ensure that no senior is forgotten.

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on airJune 2nd
Graduation is not just about caps, gowns, diplomas, or walking across a stage. Graduation is life’s way of saying, “You have grown beyond where you once were.”
Right now, thousands of young people are stepping out of schools and into a world that feels uncertain, demanding, exciting, and sometimes overwhelming. They are told they must know who they are, what they want, and where they are going. But truthfully, life is not a straight staircase, it is a series of graduations.
We graduate from innocence into awareness. From fear into courage. From limitation into possibility. From surviving into living
From doubt to clarity
And the beautiful thing is, we never stop graduating.
For our young people, this moment can feel both thrilling and terrifying. Some are celebrating with certainty, while others are silently asking themselves, “What now?” Some are stepping into university, trades, travel, work, or entrepreneurship. Others are simply trying to figure out who they are in a world constantly telling them who they should be.
But perhaps the greatest graduation is not academic at all.
It is the graduation into self.
The moment we stop living only by expectation and begin listening to our own knowingness. The moment we understand that success is not merely measured by money, titles, followers, or status, but by whether we are becoming whole within ourselves.
Life itself is an ongoing upscaling.
Each challenge asks us to grow larger than the fear. Each heartbreak asks us to deepen in compassion and understanding. Each failure asks us to become wiser and listen in. Each success asks us to become more responsible with our gifts and use them wisely.
Upscaling is not about becoming “better than” others. It is about becoming more fully aligned with who we truly are.
For many graduates today, the pressure is immense. Social media has created a world of comparison where people feel behind before they have even begun. Yet every soul has its own timing, its own curriculum, its own classroom of growth.
Some people graduate early in wisdom. Some graduate through adversity, lack of health, wealth, connection . Some through loss and fear, facing the inner devil. Some through service, understanding their unique role in life. Some through love, self love , love of life, love of whom you serve in life.
And many adults listening today may realize they too are graduating right now, from old beliefs, old careers, old identities, old wounds, or old limitations
Life keeps calling us forward.
Perhaps we need to stop asking children, “What are you going to do?” and instead ask, “Who are you becoming?”
Because when people know who they are, what they do begins to align naturally.
This show is a celebration not only of school graduates, but of every person willing to rise into the next version of themselves. Every person choosing growth over stagnation. Every person brave enough to begin again.
Graduation is not an ending. It is an invitation.
An invitation to explore. To discover. To stumble and rise again. To trust your own voice. To bring your gifts to the world. To understand that life itself is a continual education of the soul.
And no matter your age, you are never too old to upscale your life, your thinking, your compassion, your purpose, or your dreams.
So to all graduates of every age and stage of life:
May you walk forward not in fear of the unknown, but in curiosity of what is possible. May you understand that your worth is not dependent on perfection. May you remember that every experience is shaping your wisdom. And may you always allow life to keep graduating you into greater awareness, service, and truth.
Because the real diploma in life is not paper. It is the wisdom we embody.

“Why People Are Craving Meaning Right Now” Equality, Peace and Good Vibrations
Many people look at the world today and feel as though everything is falling apart. Systems are breaking, trust is eroding, fear is rising, division is everywhere, and humanity seems exhausted by conflict, greed, control, and disconnection. For many, it feels like the end of the world. In many ways, it is — but not necessarily in the way people fear.
Perhaps it is the ending of an old way of living. An old consciousness built upon power over people instead of empowerment of people. A world driven by greed instead of service, division instead of unity, consumption instead of care, and fear instead of understanding. The structures we built no longer sustain the soul of humanity, and what no longer serves life must eventually give way to something new.
Throughout history, humanity has gone through periods of collapse and rebirth. We are now standing in one of those profound transitional moments. The old systems are cracking because people are awakening. They are questioning what they have been taught, questioning leadership, questioning priorities, questioning what success truly means, and questioning why so many feel disconnected from themselves, from one another, and from life itself.
This is where conscious rebellion begins.
Not rebellion through hatred, violence, destruction, or revenge, but rebellion through awareness, compassion, empathy, accountability, and courageous humanity. It is the rebellion of people refusing to surrender their hearts to fear. Refusing to dehumanize one another. Refusing to allow anger and division to strip away kindness, common sense, and dignity.
Conscious rebellion is choosing compassion in a world profiting from outrage. It is choosing understanding when division is easier. It is standing for truth without losing humanity. It is recognizing that we cannot create a better future using the same consciousness that created the suffering we are now experiencing.
The rise of higher consciousness is not about perfection or superiority. It is about awakening to the understanding that every action affects the collective. That empathy matters. That how we treat one another matters. That humanity cannot survive if we continue operating without care for one another, for the planet, or for future generations.
What is being born now is not weakness, but a different kind of strength — a strength rooted in emotional intelligence, collaboration, compassion, responsibility, and conscious action. People are beginning to realize that domination is not leadership, cruelty is not power, and manipulation is not wisdom.
The old world may indeed be ending, but endings are often the birthplace of transformation. Just as forests burn so new growth may emerge, humanity too may be moving through a painful but necessary shedding. The question is not whether change is coming. The question is what consciousness we choose to carry into what comes next.
Will we continue feeding fear, anger, greed, and separation? Or will we fuel the rise of empathy, compassion, understanding, and conscious humanity?

THE FUTURE IS UNPREDICTABLE…
But it does NOT mean you leave your family’s future up to chance!
You are here because you take charge over your family’s future, and consider these factors independently:
My personal mission in life is to help families achieve their freedom. Of course, it varies by family. However, the critical overlap is in financial freedom. Imagine family function if every family can make decisions without financial scarcity , and the children growing up in a household where their upbringing isn’t bound by finances. I am fortunate enough to know at least one way to achieve this, and that’s the method I want to share with the audience. The fact that I’m at an oil and gas company providing direct oil and gas well ownership to investors is just a slice of that mission.
It’s one thing for me to share the concept and roadmap with folks and say good luck. But much more impactful if I can share the roadmap AND give concrete steps to take this year for people. That’s how I can actually achieve impact for families.
I started in the software industry and while the salary was great, life was just passing, with very little freedom to show for it. After close to a decade, it was enough for me. I went off to build my financial freedom first, and then show that path so people have at least one proven way to do it.
