TM22-25. Richard Battle asks “WHY” did they Die?

June 20, 2022November 19, 2022Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Richard Battle, on air from June

“The common question asked when someone loses a dear one prematurely is “Why”?” says Richard V. Battle, a lifelong Texas resident and award-winning author who lost his only son in 1998.

“Like the community in Uvalde, I was faced with a reality that I had never contemplated,” he reveals. “After a long search, I found comfort that my son was in heaven, and my faith assured me that God was in control. I realized that I did not grieve where my son was but where he wasn’t. I was then able to process my grief and resume living.”

As reality sets in, the town will never be the same, and the grieving families and community will help each other through the healing process.

Richard is the author of eight books, including Surviving Grief by God’s Grace, which details Richard’s loss of his first and then only child, his son John. It is a story of the grief, spiritual quest, and grace that helped Richard and his family survive that loss and live with hope for the future. Richard has provided free copies of his grief book to the Uvalde library to help families cope with their irreparable loss.

22-25 Pearls of Wisdom Non-Conformity

June 20, 2022June 20, 2022Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy on air form June 21st

Do not conform to please others, be your own joy your own way. We are inclined to celebrate ones mile stones in life in a way that empresses others, but that can stress you out and end up being fake. Be your own joy and have that celebration in a way the represents you and the joy you feel, think out of the box of tradition and conformity.

I have recently come from a 4 day wedding that was set on a lake and which was totally different to other weddings. It was fun, original and relaxing because the expectation of what that joy of celebration was not dictated to be, but was instead a joy of love that was meant to be.

We stress out trying to impress, serve and live up to an expectation that will never please everyone and will leave us disappointed. Instead, just have joyful fun, do what feels right for you, you set the stage and even ask others to help, and let the fun and celebration be what it is meant to be. We have forgotten to allow fun and joy and celebration of life happen, we try to mold it and manipulate it until it is not more a representation of our joy. So set the stage, invite the people, be the joy in that celebration and allow the fun to be, keep it light, fun and happy, and all will have a good time that will be truly remembered.

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Georgie Holbrook, on air from June 21st

“Determine to Heal Despite Appearances” giving hope and encouragement to others. At age 36-41, I went from taking allergy shots to having a tragic deforming disease on my face that caused me near blindness. I knew that medication wasn’t what I was lacking but had no understanding of my body/mind/spirit connection. It was my spiritual awaking! I went on a journey. At age 42 I experienced the natural building blocks of self-healing without taking drugs. My self-healing story has been PUBLISHED IN 23 NATIONAL MAGAZINES. I have written 4 self-help books. The topics I can talk about: 1. My healing story 2. For generations we have been taught as children to not cry, feel, or be real, conditioning many of us to disconnect from our Sacred Self. Many of us have taken on addictions to cover up our internalized disconnected feelings, mine was work- addiction. Teaching how to heal and return to our Sacred Self.

Georgie is a gifted intuitive healer, combining her wisdom with that of her life-long Angel Helpers. International clients rely on her to interpret how to make long-term and everyday decisions from their heart desires. Example, she interprets for others how our emotions manifest in health issues as a language, as our Sacred Self tries to get our attention, wanting to show us a more joy-filled way to live.

Georgie playfully teaches others how to bless their lives, affairs, heal and increase their prosperity, the houses that have been for sale even 3 years, have sold in 3 to 5 days, she gives credit to her Great Divine guidance.

She teaches others how to connect with the Sacred filled with possibilities and love, and how to move out of socially conditioning internalized self-doubt.

C22-23. Joseph Templin Everyday Excellence

June 6, 2022February 26, 2025Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

***Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Joe Templin, on air from June 7th***

Every day, we either get a little worse or a little better, and the natural tendency is to decline. Yet if we invest a few minutes consistently every day, we can slowly and continuously improve (Human Kaizen) and ultimately end up in a good place.

Excellence is a habit. Habits need to be acted upon daily. Every day we have to fight the entropy of age, the creeping chaos of the world. Each day we must make the investment of time and energy, just to maintain where we are relative to inflation, progress, and our own dreams.

If we invest just a bit more of ourselves than that minimum, we can improve daily. Slowly, inexorably, polishing the jewel that is us. It is the little daily sacrifices and choices that compound over years and decades to make us priceless sparkling multifaceted works of nature and nurture. So today, make the better choices. That’s all you have to do. Just do what you should, today.

JoAnn set out to write her memoir to bring awareness to the corruption in the prison and court systems in the state of Kentucky. Her experiences are not exclusive to just her own story but have happened to others. What started as a hostile work environment where favoritism and sexual innuendos were prevalent turned into a wrongful termination when JoAnn refused to have a drink with the warden. After daring to stand up for the rights of inmates to receive doctor ordered medical care provisions and refusing the warden’s proposition for a date, JoAnn found herself declared a security risk. She was also blocked from holding any nursing position at any of Kentucky’s state prisons. Now, after several years of court, her case is still unresolved.

Sexual harassment, lies, cover-ups, mistreatment of staff and inmates. These wrongs have happened at one time or other in the thirteen Kentucky state prison facilities. Every attempt is made to keep things that happen behind these walls quiet. The public does not know what goes on in a state prison. I have experienced all the above and more during my employment at Little Sandy Correctional Complex. I am Jodie Erwin, and this is my experience as a prison nurse.
This memoir includes firsthand experiences inside of a Kentucky state prison. A must read for those considering going into the field of prison nursing. This memoir gives insight into nursing inside of a prison and the challenges that arise from being a caregiver for prisoners. With the constant pressure to both give adequate medical care and to do what is in the prison’s inner circles’ best interests, this book exposes the brokenness of the system and those who are in charge. Even working inside a prison
for a short time has emotional, mental, and physical consequences. With the added pressure of unchecked sexism and harassment, this memoir reveals the darker side of this type of work. Behind These Walls will be available for purchase in both eBook and paperback editions

JoAnn (Jodie) Erwin was born in Olive Hill, Kentucky. She is the oldest of six children. She worked as a factory worker in Morehead, Kentucky till she lost her job in 2002.
Seeking a more stable career she returned to college to pursue a nursing degree. Jodie was forty-seven years old when she went to nursing school. In December 2005, Jodie graduated from the LPN program and went to work at a nursing home. It was 2012 when she took a position at a prison and her life was set on its current course. She would face some of the darkest and most difficult times of her life. Turning to writing Jodie has started a journey of healing by sharing her memories of being a prison LPN with her readers.
