Sara’s View of Life, with Sara Troy. On air from September 1st
We don’t have to ignore life’s difficulties to embrace joy. Sometimes joy is exactly what gives us the strength to keep going.
We don’t have to ignore life’s difficulties to embrace joy. Joy is not pretending that everything is perfect; it is choosing to see that goodness still exists alongside the challenges. It can be found in laughter, music, nature, animals, friendship, gratitude, and the small moments that make our hearts smile.
Life will always bring responsibilities, uncertainties, and difficult days, but we do not have to carry their weight every moment. We are allowed to pause, breathe, play, laugh, and enjoy being alive. Sometimes joy is not the reward we receive after the struggle—it is the very strength that helps us move through it.
When we make room for joy, our energy shifts, our hearts open, and life feels a little lighter. Joy reminds us that even during challenging times, there is still beauty to notice, love to share, and something worth celebrating.

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Edward J. Zinkiewicz (Ed), on air from September 1st
Ed sees his job as helping retirees meet the surprises, face the challenges, and learn the skills needed to thrive. Retirement is not just about how many cruises retirees can take or golf games they can play; it is about defining a new vision of purpose, creating a new supportive network, and learning to become as physically able as possible. Lately, Ed has been helping older retirees deal with the realities of downsizing and giving up driving.
Ed Zinkiewicz’s retirement didn’t start out well. His initial plan was to join his wife in the kind of retirement success she had; they had to invent a new path when her plan fell apart. Ed brings a practical, story-driven approach to retirement. After years of working with people to solve problems as a software engineer, Ed now helps retirees and pre-retirees understand and meet the real-life challenges that can appear after work ends: loss of purpose, loneliness, uncertainty, fears of aging, and concerns about independence. Ed focuses on your finding a new purpose, building a network of friends to combat lonelinC26-Edward J. Zinkiewicz (Ed)ess, and tackling the fears of aging so you can have a retirement that is vibrant, active, and meaningful.

Sisterhood of Common Sense Lovewith Sara Troy and her guest Elle Nagy. On air from August 25th
For most of my life, I believed that success came from working harder, achieving more, and proving my worth through what I accomplished. It wasn’t until I realised that true leadership begins within that everything changed. My work is about helping women reclaim authorship of their own lives through self-leadership; not the kind that’s taught in boardrooms, but the kind that allows you to lead yourself with clarity, courage, integrity, and deep self-trust. I believe the quality of our lives is determined by the quality of our relationship with ourselves. When we consciously lead from within, our careers, relationships, health, and purpose naturally begin to reflect that inner alignment. My hope is that every woman leaves our conversation remembering that she already holds the wisdom she’s been searching for. Her work integrates psychology, identity, and nervous system regulation to help women create authentic, fulfilling lives.
Elle Nagy is a Rich Life Advisor, author of Mastering Self-LeadershipandThe Artist State, and creator of Woman Reimagined. For the past two decades she has guided ambitious women through profound identity shifts by helping them move beyond external achievement and into authentic self-leadership. Her work blends psychology, identity architecture, nervous system recalibration, and embodied feminine creation to help women create lives that feel as rich on the inside as they appear on the outside. Known for her thoughtful, challenging conversations, Elle invites women to stop waiting for life to change and instead become the conscious leader of their own lives.
Free Gift: As a thank you to Sara’s audience, I’d love to gift listeners a complimentary digital copy of my book, The Artist’s State, to continue exploring what it means to create a richer, more self-led life.

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Katie Eberman. On air from August 18th
After rebuilding her life following an unexpected separation, she discovered there is no single “right” path for women. Through entrepreneurship, storytelling, and resilience, she inspires women to create a life they love and a legacy that shows their children anything is possible.
After becoming a mom, I decided to become a stay-at-home mom. I kept having this pull to do more, and I started my then Virtual Assistant business with my 1 and 3 year old boys at home. In my own journey, I have had to navigate finding myself while navigating an unexpected separation from my partner of 15 years and rebuild a life that I am proud of. Through telling the stories of women entrepreneurs who inspire me, I have found courage to build a life that I love, so that I can show my kids that they can do anything that they put their mind to. My message for women is that there isn’t just one “right” path for them, and that they can choose the legacy that they leave behind.
Katie Eberman is the creative force behind Simply by Katie, a design studio that helps women entrepreneurs craft websites that feel like home and convert with ease. Having navigated the path from corporate professional to stay-at-home mom to single-mom business owner, Katie turned her pivot into purpose. Now she brings her story, her strategy, and her heart to help women step out of the exhausting social media cycle and step into a powerful digital presence that says: I’m here, I’m worthy, and I’m built to grow.

Sara’s View of Life, with Sara Troy. On air from August 25th
Did you hear that? I mean, did you truly hear it? Were you listening and absorbing what was being said? Did it illuminate, astonish or enlighten you? Did it reveal something within you?
That is what podcasting is all about, and why I have continued doing this work for more than fourteen years. I want you to hear the message—not merely the words, but who is speaking, why they are sharing and what their story can teach us.
I recently recorded an extraordinary two-hour conversation with Giselle Roeder, a survivor of the Second World War. As a young girl living in Eastern Germany, she experienced the destruction of war firsthand. Her family had lived a humble but loving rural life until the arrival of the Russian army turned their world upside down.
Giselle witnessed violence, displacement, hunger and unspeakable atrocities. Her father was taken away and sent to Siberia, along with other able-bodied men and women between sixteen and sixty. Her mother was left to protect and care for her children under horrific circumstances. Giselle was only eleven years old, yet the things she witnessed forced her to grow up far too quickly.
Her story is important because history continues to repeat itself—under different names, uniforms and circumstances. We see suffering in Ukraine, Gaza, and many other places around the world. We continue to say, “Never again,” but somehow we allow fear, hatred, division and the hunger for power to lead humanity back into violence.
Who wins a war? No one. The emotional, spiritual, economic and environmental wounds can take generations to heal. Yet, despite everything history has taught us, humanity continues to reach for weapons instead of conversation, understanding and peaceful solutions.
Many of the people I interview share stories of struggle, pain and loss—but also courage, resilience and healing. They faced the darkness in their lives and found a way through it. Those who embrace healing often emerge with a profound commitment to peace, because they know that peace is what settles the heart, spirit and soul.
Those who do not heal can become trapped in bitterness, blame and vengeance. Hurt people often hurt others. This is why listening matters. If we listened to people before their pain became rage, helped them discover their value and give them meaningful ways to participate, perhaps fewer people would be manipulated by those who use anger and division to gain power.
Our significance begins within us. It comes through our participation, contribution and willingness to take responsibility for our own journey. We cannot become significant in the world until we recognize our significance in our own lives. This is the journey of self-discovery, self-love and meaningful purpose.
Today, we have access to more stories, knowledge and guidance than ever before. People share their experiences through books, podcasts, talks and social platforms. They show us how they moved from darkness into light and found courage, compassion and hope. The wisdom is available—but what are we choosing to read, watch and hear?
We cannot claim ignorance when suffering is happening before our eyes. Awareness invites us to care, and caring calls us to respond. We cannot fight every battle, because carrying the pain of the entire world can overwhelm us. But we can choose something meaningful to stand for, something harmful to stand against and someone vulnerable to stand beside.
Standing with another person can make an enormous difference, even if all we can offer is the knowledge that they are not alone.
We do not all have to look, think or live alike. There are many colours in the rainbow of life, and every one of them contributes to its beauty. I do not care about someone’s colour, nationality, economic standing, gender or orientation. What matters to me is their frequency, their consciousness and whether they genuinely care about humanity and planet.
Are you listening? Are you truly hearing and seeing what is happening—or are you choosing to look away?
Please listen to my conversation with Giselle. It is long and, at times, difficult to hear, but her story needs to be remembered. If we believe such atrocities cannot happen again, we only need to look around. They are already happening under different labels and in different forms.
I believe we are kinder and more intelligent than this. I believe we possess the conscious hearts needed to choose another way. We must listen more deeply, pay attention and find something we are willing to stand for. We must push back against those who use fear and division for power while standing beside the innocent, the wounded and even those beginning to realize they have been deceived.
Let us stand together as one human race, regardless of colour, creed or origin. Let us place humanity, our planet and all life upon it first. Let us practise kindness toward ourselves and one another, because until we do, we will continue travelling down a path of destruction.
Until next time, I truly wish you love and peace. May you discover them within yourself and share them with everyone around you.
