Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from March 26th
I have been blessed with a home, my daughter and her husband have given me a home to live in and call my own. As a senior on a small pension, I could never get it on my own, but the grace of wonderful children, I now have I hope a forever home. This brings me within 10 minutes of my daughter and Grandsons, and I can now help out so much more with them. Up to now I have been driving to them staying a couple of days and going home. Now with being 10 minutes away, I can see them often.
I had asked the universe to provide me a sanctuary to call my own, a place of peace and a feeling of home. I did not know where it would come from, or when, but now that it is in reach, I am so happy to know it is here.
I admit, the packing and moving I do not like. I have to move furniture from two places one being an island away. It is costly and time consuming and tiring. But, when I sit in my home with me history around me, I know the pain is worth it. To see the little ones running around at Nana’s brings a smile, and to have family and friends come to stay is wonderful.
This summer is goign to be fun, and with new beginnings, new people to meet, new are to explore, my heart is full and a burden removed from my shoulders.
Thank you my darling daughter and hubby, I am forever grateful to you both.

Raising Our Gifted Children with Sara Troy and her guest Yasmine Helwani, on air from March 26th
“If I could I would” Understanding the voice of behavior in the classroom.
“As a teacher, I’ve always believed that every child deserves the opportunity to succeed in the classroom. But it became increasingly clear to me that some of my students, particularly those who are neurodivergent, were facing challenges with their behavior. It wasn’t a matter of them being ‘bad’ or ‘difficult’ kids; rather, they simply lacked the tools and strategies they needed to navigate their emotions and interactions effectively.
By implementing ABA strategies in the classroom, I witnessed remarkable transformations. Students who once struggled with outbursts and meltdowns learned to regulate their emotions and communicate their needs more effectively. They gained confidence and independence, and their academic and social skills flourished.
It’s not just about managing behavior; it’s about empowering children to succeed in all aspects of their lives. And that’s why I’m proud to be both a teacher and a Board Certified Behavior Analyst at Circle Care Services, where I can continue to make a difference in the lives of children with autism.”
Yasmine Helwani is a dedicated educator and Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) with a passion for making a positive impact in the lives of children. With a background in both teaching and applied behavior analysis, Yasmine brings a unique blend of expertise to her role at Circle Care Services. As a schoolteacher, she is committed to creating a nurturing and inclusive learning environment where every student can thrive. As a BCBA, she applies evidence-based strategies to support the behavioral and developmental needs of children with autism spectrum disorder. Yasmine’s dedication to helping children reach their full potential makes her an invaluable member of the Circle Care Services team.

Choose Positive Livingwith Sara Troy and her guest Jeane Lynch, on air from March 26th
Having experienced, and successfully navigated many life changes and transitions myself, I can look back on the growth and benefits of those events.
Victor Frankl – last of human freedoms -to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances – to choose one’s own way when we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves –
So important for clients to change their mindset / thinking / assumptions to be able to move forward towards a new and positive future
Transition and change are often scary and filled with uncertainty, lack of clarity, anxiety and fear, with people being stuck and feeling helpless and hopeless.
However, transition and change can be empowering and lead to a bright future with the right insight, support and tools. I use the butterfly as a metaphor both for the (a) butterfly effect – where a butterfly flapping its wings in the Amazon, could cause a typhoon somewhere else in the world. Thus, small actions or steps can have a significant ripple effect and impact, which can change the course of one’s life. One just needs to start with small steps to move forward and to move through the overwhelm.
(b) the metamorphosis that occurs in the butterfly cocoon – Life transitions and challenges can be the catalyst for major transformation and growth
In my practice I emphasize the transformative power of family mediation and divorce or transition coaching, and how it can turn uncertainty, chaos and conflict into harmonious resolutions and a future with hope. But most importantly in Family Law to keep people out of court to save thousands of dollars.
I grew up in South Africa, and emigrated to Australia in my 30s I was a Librarian which I loved, and worked in different libraries, until I had my children. I then worked part-time in many different fields. In my 60s I felt the urge to do something challenging, that could lead to a meaningful use of my time and give a sense of purpose in my Third Age. The ‘R’ word (retirement) didn’t feature in my vocabulary! I did a post-graduate law degree online and was admitted as a solicitor. However, I was more drawn to mediation than litigation, and went on to study Family Dispute Resolution as part of my Masters of Law and other courses, including Separation and Divorce Coaching and Transition and Recovery Coaching, and started my solo practice, hope and harmony coaching and mediation last year.
Just to add an initiative of mine to get certified divorce coaches recognized in AUSTRALIA:
Divorce Coaching is fairly new in Australia, unlike in the USA where it is recognized by the American Bar Association. I was one of the first cohorts to be trained and certified in Australia in 2021.
There are however many untrained and non-certified coaches who call themselves divorce coaches, which can jeopardise and discredit the reputation of genuine divorce coaches.
I did a presentation with two colleagues for their Board and listeners as a CPD event. We have been recognised in principle, however there are a few more processes for full recognition.
My vision is for a national register by the Attorney General Department where the legal system can access divorce coaches as the first port of call, as a dispute resolution process, to keep people out of court, for the protection of children, and saving thousands of dollars in legal fees, time and stress.
Thus, last year I approached a few Dispute Resolution agencies and organisations to gain professional recognition and accreditation.
I have been in consultation with ADRA – Australian Dispute Resolution Association, to that effect.

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from March 18th
Most of us are at a crossroads in life not knowing where to go or how to read the signs before us.
The journey forward is personal but also collective, the more we include those that can enable us the more cohesive and stronger the path will be. But who are the leaders that will safely guide us forward in our collective energy which will unite the world? Can we turn to the leaders of today, the religious realm, the politicians, the governments and health sector, can we trust them to lead us mind body and soul? By past experience the answer is a resounding NO. Three things wrong with our leaders today, Ego, lack of integrity and their fear of losing control. They may start off with good intent, but the contamination of what has been before is just too deep and they cannot escape the sewage of economic greed that governs this world. It is time for a complete rebuild from the start up and the principles that guide the new leaderships have to be serving the individual in order to serve the collective. Help the one to stand tall and you will help the world stand firm and strong.
No matter the advances we make in technologies innovations or cosmic awareness, we are as humans dumb. Fear, greed, insecurity and a longing to belong dictates our very way or life. We don’t care who gets hurt along the way as long as it isn’t us. We fear that we have to make a choice in our own lives because we are conditioned to follow like sheeple blindly walking into slaughter without any accountability to our own lives. But when we don’t like the results, we sit there crying over how hard done by you are and blame someone else, never ourselves.
Collective conciseness is about knowing and being aware of soul, true connected self, heart, honesty and a desire to learn more to enable the world to unite in a belief (not a religion) but a faith in mankind to do the right thing for ones fellow man and this wondrous world we live in. It is about standing up taking ownership to be willing to be vulnerable and trust, simple trust and extend the hand to another with care understanding and a desire to help them move forward into their own awareness and freedom. When we had to count on each other for survival security and joy as a village, one took time to make sure everyone was in harmony because it served the whole village. Someone needed help the village was there, they shared in good times as well as bad and shared happiness in truth in sincere joy also.
NO this is not pie in the sky idea, those that spurn this concept that are a big part of the problem. They have bought into it is all bloody miserable so you can’t do anything about it so why try. Those people never solve anything because they have already given up and are as much dead weight at the ones that caused the problems. Just to sit there and spout what is wrong and how everyone is f—ked serves no one without a solution to the problem. No one wants to hear how bad it is but wants to know how to make it better, we are all very much aware of the wrongs in the world but how do we solve the problem without walking the same path as the leaders did? Choices, free will belief, action, and commitment. It is all up to us. If we take ownership of our own thoughts, actions and beliefs, then we become a part of the solution. It takes YOU to make this a better world, not a world leader. You cannot complain if you do nothing to help out. Life living action is all about attitude. Do you believe in anything? do you do anything to make things better? Do you speak to hope? Do you think positive thoughts? Do you look to the brightness of life or do you buy into the misery? Your life is your choice, your action your belief, so if it is not living up to expectation then do something about it.
We are the leaders of the world, one positive person with belief and in commitment to take action to make your day better and passing the good vibration on. If we stand in our own truth, speak from the heart, speak with integrity, do not take things personally but do our very best to make our own lives a better place to live in, if we don’t judge or assume but listen and feel, we one by one make this a better world to live in.
It is up to you, are you a world leader in your own life?Are you a solution to your own problems, are you a person who is willing to give of themselves to help others. Are you a person who lives in belief? Are you a person who gives a dam? Are you a person who is willing to act of your belief and make your life better in order to make those around you lives better? Simply put are you a part of the solution or the problem? Only you in your honesty can speak to this, and it is only your action that can lead to inner and outer balance, it is up to you, so what are you going to do about it? And when are you going to act on it? You want to talk about it email me I would love to hear from you. Good luck.

Building Your Business with Sara Troy and her guest Todd Sanford, on air March 19th
In November 2015 I was fighting a fire in an attic. I fell nine feet and landed on the top of my head. I fractured my neck and seven other vertebra in my back. The doctors said there was no medical reason I survived the fall. I have always known God had a bigger calling for my life. After retiring from the fire department, I became a certified Financial Coach through Dave Ramsey and focus on helping people overcome the stress of dealing with their financial situations.
I have now completed another coaching certification program through Kingdom Builders Academy and am a small business consultant. I help small businesses grow to levels never thought possible by focusing on their employees health and wellbeing. My belief is that no business will ever reach its true potential until all the employees are satisfied and happy with their own personal life. Then and only then can you truly grow your business to levels never dreamed of before.
I also coach men and help them deal with what keeps them awake at night worrying. I give them the tools to become less stressed, more successful, and happier with the life God has called them to live.
I provide both 1 on 1 coaching and group coaching and business consulting.
Todd Sanford is a 35-year retired firefighter who retired at the rank of Operations Fire Chief. He has started four successful businesses; he runs a 2200-acre ranch and has a successful coaching and speaking business today. Todd is one of the top 30 speakers in this year’s Great American Speak Off where 30,000 people signed up to compete. Today Todd consults small businesses where he works with their employees to repair what is currently broken and keeping them from achieving their best. Once he helps the employees achieve greatness within themselves then they are able to help grow the small business to levels never dreamed before by their owners. Todd also loves to coach people who are stuck, ready to give up and need help finding clarity for their life. He listens to their issues and takes a common-sense approach to helping them go places they never dreamed possible.
