MH23-38. Nick Motycka from PTSD to Breakthrough.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Mental Health Awareness with Sara Troy and her guest Nick Motycka, on air September 19th

After a 15 plus year career in law enforcement I had unresolved trauma to process. After a breakthrough, formerly known as a breakdown, I knew that I needed to face these traumas and set off on a path to do just that. But, after a year and half of traditional therapies I was not getting back to myself. With my back up against the wall I found a Shaman / Psychologist and psychedelic assisted therapy. In one afternoon, I not only faced my collected traumas but I successfully processed them. 

After experiencing this profound healing, I am on a mission to share my story to show others that there is hope and alternatives to traditional western therapies. My story has the potential to help anyone suffering with unprocessed trauma. Healing is very possible and leads to growth, as my story will show.

Nick grew up in Alberta with a father who was a member of the RCMP. This along with his wounded inner child had a major influence on his law enforcement career choice. Nick went on to spend his entire adult life, 23 years, in various enforcement related positions; security, loss prevention, bylaw services, Canada Customs, Court and Prisoner Services, as a regular member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and finally as a member of the Calgary Police Service. Nick spent time on the street with both agencies, in a Crime Reduction Unit, Drug Unit, Drug Undercover Street Team, Gang Suppression Team and finally a short stint in the Public and Media Relations Unit before his breakthrough, formally known as a breakdown, on September 16th, 2020. 

Nick was diagnosed with PTSD and set off on a journey to finally process the traumas collected during his career in law enforcement. A year and half in, countless psychologist and occupational therapist appointments later, he was able to finally get the help that he needed; one psilocybin assisted therapy session. With clear intentions and a strong willingness to do the work, Nick went from severe PTSD to no longer meeting the criteria for any diagnosis. 

With a new sense of clarity and the amazing support of his family, Nick resigned from the only profession that he had ever known. Nick now spends his time sharing his story of healing and post traumatic growth while going all in on his dream to bring consciously made, natural fiber clothing to the world through his apparel brand; Flow State Designs!

 RG23-38. William Stevenson & Ricky’s Dream Trip.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Raising Our Gifted Children with Sara Troy, and her guest William Stevenson, on air from September 19th

 William Stevenson, who will talk about how a project created for his grandson turned into the imaginative and historical educational series, Ricky’s Dream Trip. I can send additional copies of the book for listener giveaway. 

In the series, “PopPop” travels with grandson Ricky around the world and throughout time, discovering Ancient China, Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome and Colonial America. They also blast off into outer space and dive under the sea. 

In our interview, William talks about how a simple book he created for his grandson evolved into a fully published and highly acclaimed children’s book series; the importance of grandparents reading with their grandkids; and why a sense of adventure and positivity should be a central theme in every child’s life. 

How a project created just for his grandson turned into publishing an entire children’s book series 

·         The “double message” for kids and readers

·         The importance of making the child the hero of their own story  

·         Why it’s important for grandparents to read to their grandchildren

·         Why educators love his books—perfect for the classroom and libraries

·         William has a doctorate in education which helped him craft the learning aspect of the stories 

·         The research he did in order to write about historical topics, including Julius Caesar escaping into the mountains as a teenager and King Tutankhamun and his lost cat

YH23-38. Kerry Tuschhoff & Hypnobabies Hypnobirthing.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Your Health is Your Choice with Sara Troy and her guest Kerry Tuschhoff, on air from September 19th

I was working at a stock brokerage firm as a sales assistant, but then, due to my own very painful birth experiences, I created a super successful childbirth program (Hypnobabies Hypnobirthing). To help other people, I became a hypnotherapist and put hypno-anesthesia in my childbirth program as well as binaural beats, affirmations and mindfulness (we call it The Mindful Connection) to help women enjoy a much easier and more comfortable pregnancy, birth and postpartum! It has made a huge difference for so many – avoiding that first traumatic birth, or having the healing birth they dreamed of!

I also speak about releasing weight with therapeutic hypnosis as well as eliminating emotional eating, and finding out about your “secondary gain”. I also love sharing with people who are struggling in business about using real, therapeutic hypnosis to develop a much healthier money mindset, better focus and concentration, a powerful work ethic and excellent self-confidence, and eliminate fears such as speaking in public, fear of success, and becoming a true leader. Using the power of the conscious and subconscious minds to grow as a person and a business leader helps us move forward much more quickly and easily!

23-37. Balancing all the Balls

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara Troy on Sara’s View of Life, on air from September 12th

“It’s a funny thing about life. We send our wishes, hopes, and dreams out into the vastness, almost like throwing a message in a bottle into the ocean, hoping that the universe will answer. We meticulously chart out our paths, believing we’ve accounted for every twist and turn. We anticipate a rhythm, expecting milestones to unveil themselves one at a time. But here’s the catch: the universe has its own rhythm, its own mysterious cadence that doesn’t always align with our carefully laid plans.

And now, here I am. I waited, I hoped, and sometimes even doubted. But just when I least expected it, the universe delivered. It didn’t hand me one answer; it showered me with all of them, all at once. It’s like waiting for a bus on a cold winter’s day for what feels like hours, and then three show up simultaneously. It’s overwhelming, thrilling, and a tad bit intimidating.

So, the challenge I face isn’t about the waiting anymore. It’s about juggling these blessings, these opportunities that have suddenly been thrust upon me. I find myself in the thick of it all, doing a delicate balancing act, ensuring that not a single ball drops. It’s a reminder that life’s gifts don’t always come in expected packages or on our timeline. Sometimes, it’s a flood when we were bracing for a drizzle. But amidst the chaos, there’s a lesson, a hidden blessing, teaching us agility, resilience, and the power of embracing the unexpected.”

“Oh, the whirlwind of life! Just as I’m finalizing my memories and moments for my memoir, a labor of love that has traveled with me through time, I’m also nurturing the seeds of ‘Our Forgotten Children.’ book series, which is so close to my heart, it not only demands creative energy but also the challenge of fundraising to produce the anthology. Our children’s need need to be protected and we must change in the way we raise and invest in our children. Yet, there’s more. With two TV platforms beckoning, the spotlight and the screens are waiting, each requiring its own set of preparations, energy, and vision. And amidst all this beautiful chaos, I’m packing my bags for a month-long escape to see family ( and finish editing books). The universe sure has a quirky sense of timing! But here’s the deal: I’m ready. One page, one child’s story, one screen, and one day at a time.”
