C26-24. Troy Frostad is Choosing Life in the Face of Cancer.


Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Troy Frostad. On air from June 16th

My story is about emotional resilience when life changes without warning and pressure becomes deeply personal.  As a former Executive Vice President, I understood responsibility, leadership and high stakes decisions.  Being diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer forced me to learn resilience at a much deeper level.  I had to fight for my life while still choosing how I would live, love, lead and respond to the people depending on me.  That experience became the foundation of my life’s work:  helping leaders and people in difficult seasons stay grounded when fear is loud, protect their decision making under pressure and keep moving forward with courage and purpose.  The message to pass is this:  you may not be able to control what happens to you, but you can build the resilience to face it with clarity, strength and a life that is still fully lived.

I am originally from Kettle Falls, Washington, and my leadership journey began in the United States Air Force, where I served for six years, including combat roles during Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm. After the military, I spent much of my career in executive leadership, building teams, coaching leaders, and learning how to lead through pressure, change, and responsibility. Today, my work with Pinnacle Leadership brings together 37 years of leadership experience, my cancer journey, my faith, and my passion for helping people grow. Behind the profession, I am a husband to Kim, a father to Taylor, a man of faith, a cancer survivor, and someone who believes leadership is not just what you do; it is who you become when life tests you.

My journey started out as an inspiring gymnast, and I had to give up that dream in 8th grade. Which left me chasing finishlines as a competitive cyclist and triathlete. My highest value is health, which lead me to become a physiotherapist. While in school, I was introduced to cycling and triathlon, and that is when I starting competing. I coached myself to the pro level as a road cyclist. When I became a mom about 13 years ago, I started a fitness business for moms. From there I moved into the world of coaching, health coaching, life coaching and mental fitness coaching. Training the brain and the nervous system is my passion and I focus on helping women get off the diet cycle and lose the weight for good, not just the physical weight but the emotional weight.

26-24. “13 Years of Soul-Led Conversations”


“The Wisdom Was Always the Journey”

For 13 years, Self Discovery Wisdom has been far more than a podcast network; it has been a living journey of wisdom, humanity, healing, and heart-centered connection. What began as one inspired voice and one meaningful conversation has evolved into thousands of interviews, multiple genres, and a global platform where people from all walks of life have shared their truths, their struggles, their purpose, and their illumination. Through every episode, the intention has always remained the same: to give wisdom a voice and create conversations that truly matter.

Over these 13 years, the world has changed dramatically, and so have we. Technology has evolved, consciousness has shifted, and people are searching more deeply for authenticity, compassion, and meaning rather than performance and noise. Through it all, Self Discovery Wisdom has continued to stand as a place where lived experience matters, where people are heard, and where stories become pathways for others seeking hope, direction, and understanding in their own lives.

This journey has not always been easy. Building a soul-led platform comes with sacrifice, perseverance, health challenges, financial strain, and moments of exhaustion. Yet the mission always mattered more. Every guest, every listener, every shared story created a ripple effect that often could not be seen but could certainly be felt. The greatest lesson through it all is that wisdom is not found in perfection; it is found in experience, resilience, compassion, and the courage to keep showing up authentically.

Now, 13 years later, this celebration is not simply about longevity. It is about honoring the countless voices that have inspired change, the listeners who found comfort and clarity, and the continuing commitment to conscious conversations that uplift humanity. The future of Self Discovery Wisdom is not just about media; it is about community, illumination, and creating spaces where people can reconnect with who they truly are and the wisdom already within them.

Here is to many more years, and thank you to our listeners, our Guests, our sponsors, and our donators, without you this would be meaningless.

26-23. “The Soul Is Tired of Performing”


Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from May

The soul is tired of performing. Tired of pretending. Tired of wearing masks to fit expectations, roles, labels, and demands that often have little to do with who we truly are. For so long, humanity has been taught to perform for approval, perform for survival, perform for success, perform for love, and perform for acceptance. We have learned how to present ourselves to the world while quietly disconnecting from the truth of our own essence.

But the soul was never designed to live as a performance. It was meant to live as an expression of divine wisdom flowing naturally through us. It seeks truth, authenticity, connection, purpose, and meaningful presence. It does not wish to compete for worthiness or exhaust itself trying to become enough for others. It simply wishes to be fully aligned with its own knowingness and allowed to flow freely into life.

Within every person lives a wisdom far deeper than intellect alone. The soul carries insight, compassion, intuition, creativity, and an energetic understanding that often speaks quietly beneath the noise of the mind and the chaos of the world. When we become still enough to listen, that wisdom begins to guide us toward what is real, what is aligned, and what matters most in the present moment.

The soul does not need to dominate others to be heard. It simply wishes to ignite truth within others — heart to heart, spirit to spirit. When one person begins living authentically, it gives others permission to do the same. Truth has a resonance to it. It awakens something within people that reminds them of who they are beneath their own layers of performance and conditioning.

This does not mean abandoning the mind, because the mind too has its purpose. The mind is meant to clarify, organize, understand, and bring wisdom into practical action. But the mind was never meant to rule disconnected from the soul. When intellect operates without heart, humanity loses compassion. When knowledge exists without wisdom, people become informed but disconnected. The soul brings meaning to knowledge and humanity to action.

What many people are feeling right now is spiritual exhaustion — not simply physical fatigue, but exhaustion from constantly trying to be what the world expects instead of what the soul knows itself to be. People are yearning for spaces where they can breathe again, where they can stop performing and simply exist in truth without fear of judgment or rejection.

Perhaps this is the great awakening happening now. Not an awakening into superiority, but an awakening back into authenticity. A remembering that the soul already carries wisdom, and that wisdom becomes powerful when it flows into compassionate action, conscious living, and truthful connection with others.

The soul is not asking us to become more impressive.
It is asking us to become more real.
