IG25-23. Colby Wilk is an Intuitive Wayfinder.

June 9, 2025July 3, 2025Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Ignite your heart and soul with Sara Troy, and her guest Colby Wilk, on air from June 10th

I am an Intuitive Guide, a Healer, a Wayfinder.

I help you find your way to who you really are and the life that has been calling.

Why I Do What I Do
I help people find their way by helping them discover who they really are and the life that actually calls to them.

Not the life they were taught to want. Not the identity they cobbled together to survive. But the one that fits like truth in the bones.

I do this work because I’ve lived the gap between how things look and how they feel. I’ve seen what it costs to stay in roles, routines, and relationships that no longer serve us. And I know the freedom—and the terror—that comes with choosing something more honest.

I guide people back to themselves. I help them untangle from old stories, outdated coping, and inherited pressure. Not so they can become someone else, but so they can finally be themselves, fully, powerfully, unapologetically.

This isn’t about self-improvement. This is self-return.
This is a reclamation.
This is liberation.

Because once you know who you really are—and what your life is asking of you—there’s no going back. And honestly, why would you want to?

That’s why I do what I do.

AK26-23. Brownell Landrum, The Hero’s Playbook

June 9, 2025June 9, 2025Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Authors Kiss with Sara Troy and her guest Bromwell Landrum, on air from June 10th

My “why” is the “why.” All of the stories I tell get to the “why.” My first book is even titled, “Five Reasons Why Bad Things Happen.” I truly believe that getting to the “why” of any issue, whether it’s in real life or storytelling, is the path to healing and personal growth. Therefore, all my books, stories, and screenplays are about getting to the “why.”

Years ago, when someone told me, “Brownell, you’re an explorer. You’ll always be an explorer,” they were right. I consider myself an explorer of metaphysical mysteries, and love writing about them, whether fictional or factual. I’ve written over a dozen books, stories, and screenplays in both fiction and nonfiction. My latest projects are the We Meet Again trilogy, an epic reincarnation mystery about a famous couple reunited to change the world, The End: A Love Story to the Universe (my most personal story to date) about how a hilarious but dedicated team Upstairs is desperately trying to unite a couple on Earth, and The Hero’s Playbook: For the hero in all of us.

C25-23. Teri Werner, Trainwreck to Triumph

June 9, 2025June 11, 2025Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Teri Werner, on air from June 10th

After experiencing my own personal “train wreck,” I became desperate for healing, hope, and the chance to truly live out my destiny. I made a promise to God: if He would show me the steps to become free from the pain of my situation, I would, in turn, show others the way.
This book includes those very steps, along with a reflective journal and coaching questions designed to deepen your healing journey.

My path to success truly began the moment I heard Zig Ziglar say one powerful statement it opened my heart and shifted my mindset. From that spark, I was inspired to create a ten-year plan to become an Interior Designer. I sought out jobs that aligned with my vision and gave me the experience I needed.

I didn’t just create a vision, I built strategies to support it. Within eight years (two years ahead of schedule), I had achieved that dream and more. Together with my father, I channeled my passion and purpose into building a company that went on to become publicly traded on NASDAQ.

Since then, I’ve launched a coaching business, helping others do the same:
To dream with purpose, build with intention, and create the outcomes they truly desire by aligning vision with strategy.

25-22. Is Your Faith Kind?

June 2, 2025June 2, 2025Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from June 3rd

Good morning, good afternoon, and good evening, everyone. Welcome to another edition of Sara’s View of Life on SelfDiscoveryWisdom.com. I’m your host, Sara Troy.

This week, I’m diving into the topic of faith. What’s your religion? And more importantly, is your religion kind? Is it inclusive, diversified, non-judgmental, supportive, and loving?

I honestly don’t care what religion people follow, as long as the foundation is love, kindness, compassion, empathy, and consideration. If your faith condemns others, judges them, or excludes them because they’re different or don’t follow your path, that’s not divine, that’s not God’s faith. Whatever name you give to God—Source, Spirit, Universe, Divine—I refer to mine as “the divine,” a collective wisdom of the universe. My God is not a singular being but an accumulation of wisdom.

I’ve often wondered why I never fully attached to one religion, despite resonating with parts of many. I believe it’s because the work I do requires openness. I can’t be dogmatic or exclusive. If I were only pro-Jesus, how could I represent everyone? My platform is for all walks of life, and their faiths vary, just look at how many branches exist within Christianity alone!

The common denominator should be kindness. Choosing to be compassionate, embracing, and supportive is doing your God’s work, no matter the name. But we must first ignite that divine essence within ourselves, our heart, soul, and spirit. When that inner source is lit with compassion and purpose, it compels us to serve others in ways that are uplifting, not dictatorial.

If a religion teaches that people should be cast out for their sexuality, skin colour, beliefs, or economic status, then we must ask: What kind of God is that? That’s not love. Even those who do harm are held accountable by the divine, not discarded. Accountability is part of the divine plan, it’s not about punishment but growth.

If we hurt others to elevate ourselves, we’ve strayed. True faith asks us to look in the mirror and be accountable, not to hide behind excuses or authority. Whether knowingly or unknowingly, harm is harm. We must act from a place of love and awareness, not ego or insecurity.

We must nourish ourselves with divine love before giving to others. That divine light within gives us clarity, fuels our spirit, and guides our actions. When we tap into that universal intelligence, we operate from a knowingness that transcends logic, it’s wisdom downloaded from a higher source.

This is the God I follow. A God that ignites purpose, shows us our path, and surrounds us with others who can help us rise. This journey isn’t fast or linear; it’s layered, like an onion, with each layer revealing more truth and the depth of the heart, soul, and spirit.

Yes, I am a woman of faith. But my faith is inclusive. It welcomes all, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, agnostic, because the true measure is love and kindness. If your faith allows you to judge or exclude others, it serves man’s ego, not divine purpose.

I believe in being of service, not out of obligation to God, but from gratitude for all the divine offers. We don’t serve God because we must. We serve others because we are grateful for the wisdom, strength, and light we’ve received. God’s greatest desire is that we uplift one another.

This is the essence of my podcast, my writing, and my speaking engagements. If just one person is touched, inspired, or healed through my message, then I’ve done my job. I don’t need to be understood by all, I just hope something I share reaches those who need it most.

So I ask you: What is your faith really about? Does it uplift? Does it love? Does it welcome all under its umbrella?

If so, that’s a faith worth walking.

LM25-22.“He’s Alive” with Keith Mitchell

June 2, 2025June 2, 2025Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

“for the LOVE of Music” with Sara Trow and her guest Keith Mitchell, on air from June 3rd

Born in Indianapolis, Keith Mitchell’s musical roots were planted early, singing in church at age seven with his siblings in The Stars of Zion. By twelve, he was leading songs and shaping harmonies, setting the stage for a life steeped in music. Though he majored in business at Indiana University, music pulled him stronger. Through the acclaimed IU Soul Review, he refined his R&B sound, which led to the formation of After 7 with his brother Melvin and Kevon Edmonds. Together, they soared to gold and platinum success with era-defining hits. The trio was initially produced by mega hit-makers Babyface (the Edmonds’ younger brother) L.A. Reid, and Daryl Simmons in the group’s self-titled 1989 debut album which spawned the Billboard #1 R&B (and Hot 100 Top Ten) hits “Ready or Not” and “Can’t Stop.” They released two more albums (including the platinum-selling Takin’ My Time) over the next decade before their initial split.

Yet even amid commercial fame, Keith’s spiritual foundation stayed strong. As a member of World Changers International under Pastor Creflo Dollar, he experienced a deep renewal of faith that redirected his path. This spiritual reawakening inspired a new sound, one that blends his soulful R&B roots with powerful gospel truth.

Now, as a solo artist, Keith is channeling a lifetime of musical mastery into a fresh chapter. With the guidance of faith and the support of like-minded young producers, he’s crafting a sound that is both contemporary and timeless, a testimony of transformation, purpose, and praise. His music is more than melody; it’s ministry with rhythm and soul.

After rejoining After 7 for their 2015 comeback and contributing to their 2021 album Unfinished Business, Keith Mitchell officially stepped away in early 2024. He now begins a new chapter as a solo gospel artist with “He’s Alive,” the powerful lead single from his upcoming debut album Food for Your Life. Rich in testimony and praise, the song marks a bold return to his spiritual roots.

Keith’s journey began in the church, singing with his siblings in The Stars of Zion. Though he strayed from his faith in his teens, he rediscovered it at 40 through the teachings of Pastor Creflo Dollar. That reconnection sparked a deeper purpose, one that now fuels his music with messages of transformation, grace, and spiritual awakening.

Songs like “The Kingdom,” “Rescue Me,” and “Virtuous Woman” reflect his personal evolution and divine inspiration. “He’s Alive” is more than a debut—it’s Keith’s heartfelt testimony and invitation for others to experience the living presence of Christ. As he puts it, “There’s no greater honor than using music to minister to the heart.”
