BB26-21. Mike Qu & Total Freedom


Building Your Business with Sara Troy and her guest Mike Qu, on air from May 26th

THE FUTURE IS UNPREDICTABLE…

But it does NOT mean you leave your family’s future up to chance!

You are here because you take charge over your family’s future, and consider these factors independently:

My personal mission in life is to help families achieve their freedom. Of course, it varies by family. However, the critical overlap is in financial freedom. Imagine family function if every family can make decisions without financial scarcity , and the children growing up in a household where their upbringing isn’t bound by finances. I am fortunate enough to know at least one way to achieve this, and that’s the method I want to share with the audience. The fact that I’m at an oil and gas company providing direct oil and gas well ownership to investors is just a slice of that mission. 

It’s one thing for me to share the concept and roadmap with folks and say good luck. But much more impactful if I can share the roadmap AND give concrete steps to take this year for people. That’s how I can actually achieve impact for families.

I started in the software industry and while the salary was great, life was just passing, with very little freedom to show for it. After close to a decade, it was enough for me. I went off to build my financial freedom first, and then show that path so people have at least one proven way to do it.

26-21 “The Rise of Conscious Rebellion”


Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air

“Why People Are Craving Meaning Right Now” Equality, Peace and Good Vibrations

Many people look at the world today and feel as though everything is falling apart. Systems are breaking, trust is eroding, fear is rising, division is everywhere, and humanity seems exhausted by conflict, greed, control, and disconnection. For many, it feels like the end of the world. In many ways, it is — but not necessarily in the way people fear.

Perhaps it is the ending of an old way of living. An old consciousness built upon power over people instead of empowerment of people. A world driven by greed instead of service, division instead of unity, consumption instead of care, and fear instead of understanding. The structures we built no longer sustain the soul of humanity, and what no longer serves life must eventually give way to something new.

Throughout history, humanity has gone through periods of collapse and rebirth. We are now standing in one of those profound transitional moments. The old systems are cracking because people are awakening. They are questioning what they have been taught, questioning leadership, questioning priorities, questioning what success truly means, and questioning why so many feel disconnected from themselves, from one another, and from life itself.

This is where conscious rebellion begins.

Not rebellion through hatred, violence, destruction, or revenge, but rebellion through awareness, compassion, empathy, accountability, and courageous humanity. It is the rebellion of people refusing to surrender their hearts to fear. Refusing to dehumanize one another. Refusing to allow anger and division to strip away kindness, common sense, and dignity.

Conscious rebellion is choosing compassion in a world profiting from outrage. It is choosing understanding when division is easier. It is standing for truth without losing humanity. It is recognizing that we cannot create a better future using the same consciousness that created the suffering we are now experiencing.

The rise of higher consciousness is not about perfection or superiority. It is about awakening to the understanding that every action affects the collective. That empathy matters. That how we treat one another matters. That humanity cannot survive if we continue operating without care for one another, for the planet, or for future generations.

What is being born now is not weakness, but a different kind of strength — a strength rooted in emotional intelligence, collaboration, compassion, responsibility, and conscious action. People are beginning to realize that domination is not leadership, cruelty is not power, and manipulation is not wisdom.

The old world may indeed be ending, but endings are often the birthplace of transformation. Just as forests burn so new growth may emerge, humanity too may be moving through a painful but necessary shedding. The question is not whether change is coming. The question is what consciousness we choose to carry into what comes next.

Will we continue feeding fear, anger, greed, and separation?
Or will we fuel the rise of empathy, compassion, understanding, and conscious humanity?

The future will be shaped by that choice.

C26-21. Sara Fernandes, Reinvention in Midlife.


Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Sara Fernandes, on air from May 26th

Reinvention in Midlife: From Overwhelm to Clarity

I help midlife women who feel overwhelmed, scattered, or unfulfilled reconnect with themselves and create a life that feels aligned with who they are. My work is rooted in the belief that clarity doesn’t come from doing more, it comes from making decisions and honoring where you are. Through my own journey of navigating debt, uncertainty, reinvention, and starting over in a new country, I learned that growth isn’t about becoming someone new, but about returning to yourself. Today, through my work as a Clarity and Growth Coach, the Life Mastery Magazine, and the Life Mastery Circle, I support women in moving from confusion to clarity, from pressure to self-trust, and from simply coping to consciously creating a life that truly fits who they are now.

BB26-20. Nikki Mahy, Loss to Empowerment


Building Your Business with Sara Troy and her guest Nikki Mahy, on air from May 19th

I became a CFP (Certified Financial Planner) because I wanted to help people improve their financial health. At the young age of 16, I experienced a loss that forever changed my family. I watched my mum step into the role of head of our household, and in that moment, I knew I needed to have the tools to navigate life independently.  As women, we often put our own needs on the back burner while focusing on solving or fixing everyone else’s. As a financial planner, I have the privilege of listening closely to what truly matters to my clients and helping them develop a plan that builds financial confidence so they can direct their time, energy, and resources toward the areas of life that matter most to them.

26-20. “The Exhaustion of Pretending to Be Fine”


Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from May 18th

An honest talk around emotional fatigue, masking pain, burnout, and the liberation that comes from authenticity.

May is Fibromyalgia Awareness Month, and after living with fibromyalgia for over thirty years, I felt it was important to speak openly about the wearyness of living with a debilitating disease that so often goes unseen, misunderstood, or dismissed.

Fibromyalgia is not simply about pain. It is an exhaustion that settles deep into the bones, the muscles, the mind, and the spirit. It is waking up tired no matter how much sleep you have had. It is trying to function through brain fog, chronic fatigue, hypersensitivity, emotional depletion, digestive issues, and a body that can change from one moment to the next without warning. Some days, even the smallest tasks can feel like climbing a mountain carrying invisible weight.

What makes it even harder is that many people living with fibromyalgia become experts at masking it. We smile, show up, continue caring for others, continue working where we can, and continue trying to participate in life while silently calculating energy, pain levels, recovery time, and limitations. People often see the face we present, not the internal battle we fight every single day.

Living with a long-term illness also carries grief. Grief for the life you thought you would have, the energy you once had, the spontaneity lost, the misunderstandings from others, and sometimes even the isolation that comes from people not fully comprehending what chronic illness does to the body, mind, emotions, and identity.

But within that wearyness, there is also resilience. There is adaptation. There is courage in continuing on when your body constantly asks you to stop. There is wisdom learned through pacing, listening, adjusting, and discovering what truly matters. Living with fibromyalgia teaches compassion in ways many cannot understand unless they too have walked this path.

This conversation is not about seeking pity. It is about awareness, understanding, and giving voice to the millions of people who live daily with invisible illnesses. It is about acknowledging that behind many smiles are people carrying extraordinary burdens quietly and bravely.

And perhaps most importantly, it is about reminding those who live with fibromyalgia that they are not weak, not lazy, not imagining it, and not alone and you are so much more than the desease.
