TSM26-24. Valentina Pinzon Ancestral Art

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Valentina Pinzon, on air from June 16th

Our mission is to honour and support ancestral wisdom through Indigenous-made and sustainably grown cultural offerings from Colombia, Peru, and Mexico. We share ceremonial tools, statement jewellery, organic edibles, and sacred creations that invite people into deeper self-awareness, connection, and appreciation of ancestral cultures.

Our offerings include ceremonial-grade cacao, cacao tea, palo santo, rattles, medicine bags, beaded jewellery, clothing, accessories, and other handcrafted items created with intention and respect for tradition. Each piece carries a story, reflecting the people, culture, and sacred processes behind its creation.

What began as a journey of sharing Indigenous art has evolved into a deeper focus on ceremonial edibles, particularly cacao. Through learning the needs and interests of our local community, we have expanded into designing and creating products that resonate more closely with those seeking meaningful and conscious living practices.

By offering authentic Indigenous products and educating people about the traditions, craftsmanship, and cultural significance behind them, we aim to foster awareness, respect, and curiosity for ancestral wisdom and Indigenous communities across South America and beyond.

Through our ceremonial cacao, we are also beginning to facilitate workshops and talks on the conscious consumption of cacao, helping others reconnect with the ancestral spirit of Mama Cacao and cultivate a more mindful and heart-centred relationship with themselves and the world around them.

C26-24. Troy Frostad is Choosing Life in the Face of Cancer.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Troy Frostad. On air from June 16th

My story is about emotional resilience when life changes without warning and pressure becomes deeply personal.  As a former Executive Vice President, I understood responsibility, leadership and high stakes decisions.  Being diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer forced me to learn resilience at a much deeper level.  I had to fight for my life while still choosing how I would live, love, lead and respond to the people depending on me.  That experience became the foundation of my life’s work:  helping leaders and people in difficult seasons stay grounded when fear is loud, protect their decision making under pressure and keep moving forward with courage and purpose.  The message to pass is this:  you may not be able to control what happens to you, but you can build the resilience to face it with clarity, strength and a life that is still fully lived.

I am originally from Kettle Falls, Washington, and my leadership journey began in the United States Air Force, where I served for six years, including combat roles during Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm. After the military, I spent much of my career in executive leadership, building teams, coaching leaders, and learning how to lead through pressure, change, and responsibility. Today, my work with Pinnacle Leadership brings together 37 years of leadership experience, my cancer journey, my faith, and my passion for helping people grow. Behind the profession, I am a husband to Kim, a father to Taylor, a man of faith, a cancer survivor, and someone who believes leadership is not just what you do; it is who you become when life tests you.

26-24. “13 Years of Soul-Led Conversations”

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

“The Wisdom Was Always the Journey”

For 13 years, Self Discovery Wisdom has been far more than a podcast network; it has been a living journey of wisdom, humanity, healing, and heart-centered connection. What began as one inspired voice and one meaningful conversation has evolved into thousands of interviews, multiple genres, and a global platform where people from all walks of life have shared their truths, their struggles, their purpose, and their illumination. Through every episode, the intention has always remained the same: to give wisdom a voice and create conversations that truly matter.

Over these 13 years, the world has changed dramatically, and so have we. Technology has evolved, consciousness has shifted, and people are searching more deeply for authenticity, compassion, and meaning rather than performance and noise. Through it all, Self Discovery Wisdom has continued to stand as a place where lived experience matters, where people are heard, and where stories become pathways for others seeking hope, direction, and understanding in their own lives.

This journey has not always been easy. Building a soul-led platform comes with sacrifice, perseverance, health challenges, financial strain, and moments of exhaustion. Yet the mission always mattered more. Every guest, every listener, every shared story created a ripple effect that often could not be seen but could certainly be felt. The greatest lesson through it all is that wisdom is not found in perfection; it is found in experience, resilience, compassion, and the courage to keep showing up authentically.

Now, 13 years later, this celebration is not simply about longevity. It is about honoring the countless voices that have inspired change, the listeners who found comfort and clarity, and the continuing commitment to conscious conversations that uplift humanity. The future of Self Discovery Wisdom is not just about media; it is about community, illumination, and creating spaces where people can reconnect with who they truly are and the wisdom already within them.

Here is to many more years, and thank you to our listeners, our Guests, our sponsors, and our donators, without you this would be meaningless.
