Your life is as simple or complex as you let it be. Your life is always as good as you allow it to be. Our work together is easy and life-changing.

Let’s be honest: life can feel pretty random. When things go well, it’s because you’re managing (read: controlling) them. But when one thing goes wrong, it seems like all that goes out the window.

So you try all the “right” things, like reading the self-help books, exercising, changing your diet, working harder, working smarter, having the tough conversations, and rubbing that lucky pebble in your pocket, all in hopes of pulling the right levers and lining up the stars to (fingers crossed) get the life you want.

HERE’S THE TRUTH:

There is no right or wrong way to live your life.

There’s your way!

**Reality doesn’t happen to you. It happens from you. You can give up the idea that you need to (or can) control everything, and start understanding that you create everything.**

C21-50 Beverly Kievman Copen is Creating Positivity.

December 13, 2021December 13, 2021Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

***Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Beverly Kievman Copen, on air from December 14th***

~Her Mission to Inspire you to want to Move Forward with your Life~

Does it feel impossible to fit it all in? Challenging times, like the recent pandemic, can add stress and grief to an already hectic life, raising anxiety levels. Residing in Rome, GA, Beverly Kievman Copen, is the acclaimed author of ‘It’s Your Life, Isn’t It?’. For decades, she has been inspiring people through her work as a glass ceiling shattering entrepreneur, an internationally in-demand motivational speaker, renowned photographer, and author. Her newest book offers life tools to deal with changes and difficult times.

“Making a difference begins with ‘I have an idea,'” believes Beverly, who loves helping people find solutions, clarify their values, set goals, and develop plans to make things happen even in challenging and tough times.

IT’S YOUR LIFE, ISN’T IT? tells a most remarkable story. Copen lived in Japan for three years. A year later, after she conducted a seminar in Tokyo, Japan, a young Japanese woman came up to her and said, “I like the way you think. Would you be interested in writing a book for the Japanese market with our publisher?” Copen said YES. It took more than a year to work with Diamond Publishers to think through the theme and content. She wrote it in English, and it was published in Japan in 2000, in Japanese, with the title, “IT’S YOUR LIFE, ISN’T IT.” During the recent long months in the global pandemic, Copen re-discovered the manuscript on her computer and committed to revising it to become a “global” book. Her aim was that it could reach and help women and men in many countries.

The book paints a picture of how to look at your past, analyze your present, and reimagine your future. Whatever your age, it provides a way to assess your desires, strengths, and weaknesses and put them into a framework that will help you construct a more fulfilling lifestyle throughout your life. The theme is based on how to manage change – especially when it is outside of your control. Copen openly discusses her successes and her mistakes and the lessons learned from those achievements and the errors. Copen states, “we need to understand and deal with the New Normal for our lives.”

“I love this book! It inspired me to take a look at my own life, and it gave me the tools, energy, and new ideas I need to live my Life with more purpose, passion, and joy. The author shares her spectacular photographs and life stories that are uplifting and filled with wisdom and beauty.”
Linda Carson- WWSB-TV, ABC

IG21-50 Kathleen Woodington on How Getting Sick Saved My Life.

December 13, 2021March 13, 2024Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Ignite Your Heart and Soul with Sara Troy and her guest Kathleen Woodington, on air from December 14th.

How Getting Sick Saved My Life: I help heart centered entrepreneurs and lightworkers feeling, disconnected from themselves and feeling their emotions ( it is typically related to unresolved trauma), self doubt, overwhelm, and lack of focus, center and ground their energy in their body temple to create more balance and flow in their life and business. Your inner world creates your outer world.

It was in losing everything ( mental and physical health, career, finanaces, relationships etc), that I found myself, learned to feel my emotions, love myself and love life. I almost died trying to figure out how to live. It’s a miracle that I am alive. I am here to share my message of hope and inspiration and to end suffering on this planet. Life is a skillset. We are here to learn to live skillfully and in alignment with our mind, body and soul. Let your lifestyle be your medicine.

I give hope to the hopeless. Our most important relationship is with ourself. Know thyself. Love thyself. I was addicted to adrenal and being busy and not listening to my body. After realizing it’s about feeling good I got addicted to feeling good and honouring myself. This realization opened the door to my healing and transformation. My mission is to get others addicted to feeling good, fully alive and thriving.

My background is health sciences. I have always helped people. I was a Nuclear Medicine Techonologist and then and Occupational Therapist. 11 years years ago I was told I would return to my career as an Occupational Therapist following the removal of my thyroid gland. I attempted 3 return to works and they all failed. My identity was wiped out. Gone. I felt like a nothing.

What unravelled was layers of chronic illness. I was bed ridden for up to ½ a month in bed for years. It was a complete mess. My mess is now my message. You have to feel to heal.

Running from emotions creates imbalances in the system which eventually lead to disease. I lived from a place of deep trauma my whole life. I have lived the last 11 years in my ‘urban ashram like a crosss between a navy seal and a yogi (Ha!) ‘unlearning everything I knew, reprogramming my nervous system for peace and calm and creating my new identity as a Spiritual Coach and Yoga Teacher.

C21-49 Heather Dugan, Surviving the Holidays when you are Alone.

December 6, 2021November 30, 2023Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Heather Dugan, on air from December 7th
~Tips and advice from relationship expert and award-winning author Heather Dugan on how to keep loneliness at bay~

Heather says that loneliness is a personal concept. While some people don’t need a lot of social interaction to be happy and healthy, others may have contact with friends and family members all the time and still feel alone. “Loneliness happens when you feel socially isolated, and it can have a powerful impact on your mental health. You need to plan for low moments and make the most of situations that are beyond your control,”

The holiday season should be a time of joy and love, but it can also be a time of loneliness for many people. As we gradually crawl out of the pandemic, the uncertainty around traveling and vaccine hesitancy among Americans may force people who live far from family to stay home and miss seeing their loved ones. “For those who feel a sense of loneliness, holidays can be a time of major additional stress,”

Dugan. “You can still make memories for yourself by being creative and flexible. Build new “traditions” and find ways to embrace rather than avoid the alone time.”

Some useful suggestions from Heather to add some cheer to solo holidays:

Refrain from comparing yourself to others and assuming they are doing great
Focus on the brighter and positives of the situation
Volunteer and offer your service to someone in need

21-49 The Giving Gift

December 6, 2021December 10, 2025Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from December 7th

Are you in flux this year on what to give for Christmas? Are there shortages of products where you are? or do you simply have no idea what to give everyone? Here are some suggestions and ideas from me of what you can give this year, but mostly how you can step into caringness, kindness lovingness to you and all your care for.

Here in BC, Canada, we’ve witnessed the harsh reality of an overwhelmed landscape: whole towns threatened by rising waters, farms destroyed, livestock lost, vital roads and railways washed out — the very infrastructure we rely on for survival gone in the blink of an eye. The Weather Network+2Emergency Info BC+2

When the scale of suffering feels too big and it seems like there’s nothing we can do, it’s easy to feel helpless. But there is something we can do. We can stand with those in crisis — we can support organizations working on the ground. We can make donations in the names of our loved ones, turning our gift-giving into a powerful act of hope and solidarity.

By giving in this way, we help rebuild communities. We help provide shelter, food, care — and most importantly, love — to people who are feeling lost, frightened, lonely, or abandoned.

This Christmas — let your gifts not just be things wrapped in paper, but gifts of hope and compassion. Together, we can make a difference.

What is gifting it forward? It is gifting a donation to an organization in someone’s name and giving them that gift for Christmas, it becomes a gift of giving that keeps on giving. BOOKS IDEAS HERE and HERE
