Mental Health Awareness with Sara Troy and her guest Christie Nix, on air from November 29th
IF YOU HAD A CHILDHOOD, YOU WILL WANT rREST
Here’s why. All your challenges, all your stress, all your relationships that trouble you, are tied to pivotal childhood moments that shape your adult perspectives. Whether you recognize them or not, they live with a vengeance in your subconscious, emotional mind.
This is why you unconsciously end up trying to solve adult problems with childish coping tactics, amplifying the stress, and repeating the bad habits that hold you back.
Without rewiring the old triggers you developed as a child, it will continue to be difficult to take control of your future. You’ll be stuck in the cycle of frustrating outcomes to adversities in your life.

Quantum Spirituality with Sara Troy and her guest Steve Martile, on air from November 29th
I’m an Entrepreneur, and Spiritual Teacher who loves adventurer and having fun. I started as a mechanical engineer then became a life coach. Today I run a marketing agency that helps Entrepreneurs build their businesses. I have roughly 1.5 million+ views on my Youtube channel, and have become known for the 7-day manifestation experiment.
Most people wouldn’t expect the same personality who does engineering to also be a life coach. So how did I go from engineer to life coach?
I’ve had some defining moments along my journey. They always came with a fair amount of discomfort. One of those moments occurred while I was working in Toronto as an HVAC engineer. One weekend my wife and I were driving north to Sudbury in our Honda Accord to see family. We were talking about the new job I had started six months earlier.
I remember saying to her, “I feel depressed.”
My wife says, “Is it me?”
“No, of course it’s not you,” I said. “It’s the work I’m doing.”
I felt this rigid programming take over when I was in my job. It was as if there were two of me. One part of me felt that I should keep everyone happy. Keep the peace. Don’t ruffle any feathers. Don’t rock the boat. Don’t do anything that will upset anyone. Don’t stand up for yourself, especially if it might upset someone else. We wouldn’t want that.
The other part of me (the real me) was screaming inside to do the things that made me feel happy, to be true to myself, to honor my feelings. I needed to speak up for myself at meetings when I felt guided to do that. I needed to explore, to be creative, to try new things, to be less rigid and more adventurous.
The real me was getting louder and louder. I knew I needed to make a change, but the truth was I felt trapped. One part of me had taken the job in Toronto because it was the ‘right thing to do’ and the ‘money was good.’ Yet the real me was pushing to emerge. It wouldn’t stand down.
I started working on projects for two different senior engineers. They both had conflicting ideas about which projects were the most important. Imagine walking into a meeting where you’re told that project X needs to be your highest priority. You leave that meeting and walk into another meeting five minutes later, and you’re told by a totally different supervisor that project Y is more important than project X.
It was driving me nuts. I was pulling my hair out because I wanted both supervisors to be happy with me. I had the so-called “disease to please”. I was miserable. Pleasing others was a trap I had created for myself. I desperately wanted out.
That’s when I started looking for answers. I decided to open my mind to new ideas. I decided I was going to do something different because the pain and internal discomfort were too much to bear. I had to change course, so I started reading books and becoming more receptive to new ideas, AND THAT CHANGED MY LIFE COMPLETLY.

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from November22nd
Winter is upon us and this means we go inside. No more meeting people down at the beach or at the park or just out and about, we are staying in where it is warm and cozy. But, what of the people who now feel isolated who used to feel connected when people were about? How do we include them in our lives now?
This is a tough time of the year; no matter the age, people can feel so isolated and alone because, due to whatever, they can not go out and about or are not part of an organization. Loneliness kills, the isolation, hurts, the feeling that no one cares, and the day-to-day of being alone with one’s self. Some people work from home and are not mingling with work friends, and some are trapped at home due to health or age. Some are stuck at home with children and have nowhere to go. Whatever the circumstance, please connect, reach out, knock on doors, make a phone call, use social media, email, write a letter, anything to connect and make them feel connected.
We all want to feel we belong and that there are out there people who care about you, so reach out, speak out, invite, and if you are on of those who are alone, do not be shy, reach out too, go out even if to a mall to be around people, strike up a conversation and see where it goes, for you never know where it might happen until you try and connect.
