C22-16. Caprice Hogg, Art, Books and Teaching


Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Caprice Hogg, on air from April 19th

Caprice first picked up her paintbrush in 1994 and quickly discovered a hidden talent. She studied with artists Karen Hersey, Keith Smith and Shane Garton and soon found herself in a world of colourful oils, shapes and art techniques. Her insatiable thirst for knowledge of art has become an obsession as Caprice eagerly reads each and every art book she can get her hands on. In 1998, Caprice’s first solo exhibition gave her the confidence and courage to pursue painting as a full-time career. She works and exhibits her paintings from her Studio Gallery located in Kimberley, British Columbia, Canada. Caprice’s works are now in private and corporate collections in Western and Eastern Canada, the United States, Europe, and New Zealand.

After painting full-time for many years, it was a natural progression for Caprice to start teaching art. Passing on the knowledge that was passed on to her is certainly an important part of her career. Whenever the opportunity arises, Caprice travels to not only see new landscapes but also to art galleries and museums in Canada and abroad. Looking at art illuminates and inspires. She then calls upon the powers of her imagination to portray on canvas the beauty and majesty of the mountains and forests that surround her. Her vibrant colours and bold strokes reflect her strong connection to mother nature.


Caprice is one of Cloud Lake Literary’s contributing reviewers. She is responsible for book reviews as well as the occasional author interview. Find her work under Impressions.

YH22-16 Dr. John Poothullill and Childhood Cancers

Your Health is Your Choice with Sara Troy and her guest Dr John Poothullill, on-air from April 19TH

If you are the parent of a child with cancer, the overwhelming multitude of questions, feelings, and associated anxiety is hard to contain. What caused the cancer? What can you as a parent do to help your child live through it? What is the future for your child? 

In this insightful and thoughtful book, you will find information, hope, advice, and solace. Dr. John Poothullil expertly guides you to understand childhood cancer. He starts with his two new scientific theories to explain how the leading types of childhood cancers might occur, given that children have not lived long enough to develop the number of gene mutations that usually cause adult cancers. 

You will learn how you as parents can care for your child with cancer with understanding and sensitivity, creating a loving home environment full of communal activities to reduce everyone’s stress and worry. 

Most importantly, Dr. Poothullil explains why your child’s diet can be a key corollary element in controlling cancer along with the medical treatments. You will learn how a diet low in grains and grain-flour products slows cancer cell growth, giving your child’s immune system a better chance to contain it.

Dr. John Poothullil, MD, FRCP, has been investigating cancer for more than 8 years and food and nutrient intake for over 25 years. He is the author of three other books covering the topics of obesity, Type 2 diabetes, and cancer.

John Poothullill practiced medicine as a pediatrician and allergist for more than 30 years, with 27 of those years in the state of Texas. He received his medical degree from the University of Kerala, India in 1968, after which he did two years of medical residency in Washington, DC and Phoenix, AZ, and two years of fellowship, one in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and the other in Ontario, Canada. He began his practice in 1974 and retired in 2008. He holds certifications from the American Board of Pediatrics, The American Board of Allergy & Immunology, and the Canadian Board of Pediatrics.

During his medical practice, John became interested in understanding the causes of and interconnections between hunger, satiation, and weight gain. His interest turned into a passion and a multi-decade personal study and research project that led him to read many medical journal articles, medical textbooks, and other scholarly works in biology, biochemistry, physiology, endocrinology, and cellular metabolic functions. This eventually guided Dr. Poothullil to investigate the theory of insulin resistance as it relates to diabetes. Recognizing that this theory was illogical, he spent a few years rethinking the biology behind high blood sugar and finally developed the fatty acid burn switch as the real cause of diabetes. Recently his own cancer diagnosis lead him to research cancer and childhood cancer. 

The valuable extra material in the book includes simple instructions to do gardening and cooking as calming activities to enjoy life for children with cancer. Three superbly illustrated short stories that parents can share with their children are also included. 

This book is for anyone who has cancer localized to a single site and not yet colonized in another part of the body. It is also for anyone who believes they are at risk of cancer due to heredity, lifestyle, working conditions, or for any other reason. Surviving Cancer is especially important for people with Type 2 diabetes, with or without cancer, to learn about the link between the two.

22-15 Dream your dream into reality

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from April 12th

The end of a day must be as calming as the start of a day, for in your dreams you are laying foundations for what is to come, and when you awake in your knowingness you are guided to what can make those dreams come true. Dream well and welcome a new day with enlightenment.

Where do our dreams come from?

Where do the seeds of our possibilities grow?

Where do our dreams need to go?

Where do we find the courage to build that dream?

Where do we find the knowledge to succeed?

Can we trust the dream?

That desire that lays within you is that a dream? that energy called excitement that is unleashed on an idea that became a dream is the dream.

We need dreams for they are the foundation of all that is, all that can be. So how do we honour that dream, that idea? how do we fuel it into a picture that can be seen and ignited?

Paint the picture, vivid and alive so that you are clear on what it is, start seeding and watering the idea into action. Nurture it protect it, allow it to grow in its own light, and then guide it gently along its path to life.

Never give up on your dream, but remember visions change so do the directions of dreams. As long as the core of that dream is still alive, the redirection is just the universe showing you what you need to fulfill that core and make the vision happen.

Be willing to take a totally new path, for it may be the path to that dreams meaning. Remember to be aware of those around you and that who interact with you, for you never know who may have that nugget of info you need to grow.

Remember to be patient for dreams do not manifest overnight, and only grow at the rate they are meant to, nurtured with your loving care and conviction.

In the end, your dream may look totally different in reality, but as long as you have been true to the meaning of the dream, the core of the heart, and soul spirit of you, the principle, the authenticity, is what you were always meant to have…this I know all too well.

So dream well, dream big, but be prepared to take action in all directions to fuel this dream into fruition, nothing happens by just dreaming it, you have to actionism on those dreams to build them.

I had a dream, I thought it was to be taken in one direction but was redirected to another. When I first started the journey, I had no idea that this was my dream all along. I got out of my way and kept walking forward in belief and purpose, now I am where I should be and know what wonders lay before me, I love who I am, doing what I am doing, because I fed the core, and was flexible but steadfast and willing to bend but stay strong.

You too can live your meaningful purposeful dream just trust and take the first step.

Heather Mathes began modeling in 1988. She continued modeling professionally after graduating from the Ohio State University with a B.S. in Marketing in 1993 before signing her first contract fit modeling with a major national retailer in 1996. After a ten consecutive year fit modeling contract, as well as modeling for other companies outside of her contract, she retired to become a mom in 2008. She then came out of retirement in 2016 at the age of 46 to continue fit modeling for the same company at the exact measurements she was in her twenties, not because she was under contract, but because she had developed health and wellness methods that kept her weight from fluctuating. She did this unconsciously as these methods became her norm. These methods and more are what she shares in her book

Paid to Be Perfect: The Secret to Finding Your Perfect. She lives in Columbus, OH with her husband, her son, and her dog.

C22-15. Andrew Biernat & The Growing Pains of Growth


Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Andrew Biernat, on air from April 12th

The process of personal growth isn’t always pleasant. After years of counseling, reading mountains of personal development books, and going through numerous challenges, including quitting alcohol and experiencing 3 miscarriages in between our two girls, much of the growth I’ve experienced has come at a cost. Some of the growth processes are fun and motivational. Much of it cuts you to the core in order for you to heal back stronger.
