Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from August 30th
Well, I did it, I finished my book, well, the 2nd draft of it, I still have to chapter it and send it for editing, but the bulk is written. Deciding not to do shows for 4 weeks was hard but necessary as I had to finish this book. The book wrote itself differently from what I had intended. It is as it wanted to be written, An observation of my life, a view of my journey to where I am today, and how I overcame the pain and sadness.
One thing I know, one has to write what comes out, we can not write for an audience, it has to be authentic to yourself and what we as an author want to say. I have written it in article form as I did not go linear. I reflect a lot on life and my part in it, and in reading it back, I can see how my divine view came to be, I had set my self free, and in that freedom I came to be Sara of today.
Now I am back doing shows, bringing you incredible people who have embraced their wonderful path in life and now wish to share the enrichment with others. This week alone I have redirectors in business, paranormal discussion, to rediscovery of ones soul, and did you get the manual on past lives, and a free app on wellness, to end suffering and NLP and Huna, and never in a billion years, and more paranormal hauntings, and this is just this week.
Coming in September there will be an invite out to all the Mentors out there to join us and share their skills and wisdom with those on their life’s journey. Plus, we start the fundraiser for the Forgotten Children series, a collaborative book on raising children and the changes needed.
I love what I do, bringing you each week those who have like me, stepped into their calling and living their purpose meaningfully. Their knowledge and wisdom, truly is illuminating and will pivot you, guide you and uplift you in so many wonderful ways.
So sit back, left your fingers do the clicking and enjoy all there is here to enjoy, for I know it will inspire you to want to take your own exciting journey in life knowing their is support and guidance along the way. .

I’m a father, husband, and passionate creator. I grew up in a small Massachusetts town and spent a lot of time outside and playing sports as a kid although I wasn’t very good. I’ve always been my weird self and known as a mellow kid who’s always joking. I went to the university of New Haven for a year after high school but dropped out after 2 semesters after dealing with deep depression, paranoia, and mood swings. I was later diagnosed with bipolar disorder and spent what I call a sick kids gap year trying to write several novels, drinking heavily, sometimes avoiding public situations for weeks on end and sometimes contemplating big life changing moves. I spent the next few years unmedicated and self medicated openly struggling with bipolar disorder. I started dating my wife who suffered from a severe eating disorder and stood by me while I struggled through my own mental illness. I have a 1 year old son named Nohl (Nohlie) a cat named ozzy, and a daughter on the way named Leala Bowie, I love to paint, write, listen to music, hike and cook.

Quantum Spirituality with Sara Troy and her guest Dr Nancy Wiley, on air from August 30th
Suffering is seemingly universal. Every day, as we are bombarded with reasons to be fearful- an ongoing global pandemic, environmental challenges, wars, civil unrest, mass shootings, poverty, homelessness, rising gas prices, etc.- we have an important choice to make. Will we let the fear consume us, or can we find peace by surrendering to Divine Trust? Scientist, Spiritual Researcher, and Author Dr. Nancy Wiley, D.D.S., provides a simple guide for dissolving stress and despair in Divine Trust: A Practical Guide to End Your Suffering and Find Your Way Home.
Dr. Nancy Wiley, D.D.S. is a highly trained scientist who is an expert in the physical body as she is in the subtle body and spiritual realms.
After having received her B.A. in Biology from the University of Maryland, Dr. Wiley went on to receive her M.S. in Nutrition and her D.D.S. and a Certificate of Orthodontics from Columbia University. She also received her Diplomat to the American Board of Orthodontics and Qualified Orofacial Myology Certification. She has done research at the Biology Department of UMBC and Columbia University as well as Johns Hopkins Medical School and is the publisher of multiple scientific research papers. She has practiced clinical orthodontics for more than 27 years.
Concurrently, Dr. Wiley has immersed herself in the study of meditation and the subtle energy body for her entire adult life. Since the age of 16, she has practiced various forms of meditation, including Transcendental Meditation, Holosync (brain wave entrainment), and guided meditations with many teachers, including Jeddah Mali, her most treasured teacher and to whom she attributes the attainment of Unity Consciousness. She is also a Reiki Master and expert in several energy healing modalities, including EFT, Spring forest Qigong, and Diamond Feng Shui.
As her experience and confidence in navigating through her inner realm continued, Dr. Wiley was able to reach a state whereby she no longer suffered, no matter what life presented. She became certain that there was a Divine Presence that wanted everyone to know and trust It, and her Divine Trust became unshakeable.
On February 14, 2018, the urgency to share this message accelerated in the aftermath of the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, Florida where Dr. Wiley lives and works. One of her patients and others close to her were killed in the shooting, and her community was suffering terribly. Dr. Wiley knew that Divine Trust could help ease their pain and suffering and committed herself to that cause. She now dedicates herself to igniting a massive shift in human consciousness, using Divine Trust as the cornerstone. In her first book, Divine Trust: A Practical Guide to End Your Suffering and Find Your Way Home, she lays out a blueprint that anyone can easily follow to achieve the incredible state of Divine Trust and, thereby, be free of suffering.

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guests Laura Pedersen and Jill Miller, on air from August 30th
“This is truly the way to worship him. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”Romans 12:2 (NLT)
Why Choose?is that flips your life and your future upside down.…being 22 years old, having a car accident
Imagine…learning after 10 years that you have a disease called Ankylosing Spondylitis, a disease that painfully fuses your joints together and makes your body immobile.
Imagine… being allergic to the medications that could help the pain and the progression of the disease, as you lose your gifts and talents one by one.
Imagine…your autoimmune system being so compromised that you can’t fight off infections, illnesses and eventually become allergic to the air outside, leaving you confined to your home.
Imagine…the disease accelerating so rapidly that you are no longer able to work, you can’t walk without a walker and you can’t talk without wincing in pain.
Imagine…having your faith radically and dramatically changed in the midst of this nightmare.
Imagine…instead of wallowing in self-pity you decide to write a blog about your journey and the powerful ways God is at work in the midst of it, and that blog gets 2.5M hits, touching the lives of others as you teach them that no matter what, you can truly Choose Joy!
Imagine…God taking you home saying well done, good and faithful servant, at the tender age of 38.
Imagine…leaving a legacy for years to come as you help people realize that the most important word in Choose Joy is not the word joy but the word CHOOSE!
Laura and Jill have taken the torch from Laura’s sister Sara and are determined to keep her God-inspired legacy alive and well. Sara proved that we can CHOOSE faith and trust in any and every situation, no matter how difficult.
We are passionate about helping women see the choices they have, even in difficult circumstances, choices like:
