17-04 Petless and a Sad Heart

Join Sara Troy on Sara’s View of Life, on air from January 24th

Losing a pet is like losing a part of you.

I have just lost my cat or 17.7 years and 5 months ago lost my dog of 14.7 years, I am now petless it feels so strange and my heart misses their loyal love.

Kokomo my border collie was my best friend, she was my soul, my heart, and my spirit. She knew me inside and out, and was always there for me, letting her go was kind to her, but has been almost crippling for me. I had to let her go last August 9th because she could not cope with life anymore, it was so hard to do, but she did prepare me for it.  We gave her a beautiful death, a steak dinner, ice cream, a vet assisted death at home and so much love around her, she went knowing how much she was loved.

Sativa our cat was an independent cat of only 6lbs, but she loved the outdoors, she loved people and was so beautiful and we thought she would live for many more years. It came as a shock that I found her on the floor listless, unable to stand, lethargic, this vibrant cat who only days before had presented me with a bird, was dying right before my eyes.

I took her to the vet and he said she had kidney failure and most likely would not recover from it, the kindest thing to do was let her go, but always so had to commit to. It was all so fast.

She lay in my arms with my son and his girlfriend giving her loving support and we said our goodbyes. This limp lifeless kitty who used to terrorize other cats and Kokomo, hang out with the guys was a mere shell of herself, how did she decline so fast?

The vet gave us time to say our goodbyes and then came in with the injection, in seconds it was over, we kept speaking to her telling her we loved her forever so her spirit would go with all the love we have for her, she went home knowing that.

Now after 17.7 years of having a pet, it feels so strange and empty, I do have my Grand pups who are here often, and I love them so, I am sitting one right now who knew my loss and gave me comfort, but alas they are not my babies and have not traveled through life with me.

I miss my Kokomo, now that silky little girl who loved sleeping on your lap is now gone too, yes they will always be with me, in my heart soul and with a visiting spirit, but I won’t get to hold them anymore and for that, I am very sad.

So go give you pet the biggest hug you can and make sure they always know how much you love and that you are grateful for them.

Thank you Kokomo and Sativa for all the love smiles and laughter you gave us all, we will never never forget.

2022. It has been years since they passed and my heart still aches for them, that trust, pure love and soul connection is missed so much.

SVL 17-003 Why am I hosting “ECO Solutions”

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from January 17th 

eco-solutions-banner

I am a radio host, I am a soul awakener, a people’s redirect celebrator, so why am I hosting a show on ECO Solutions?

We cannot embrace our soul’s purpose or our heart’s desire if we do not embrace this beautiful planet for we are at one with each other. You rely each and every day on this earth to provide for you, you cannot live without our MAMA EARTH.

So hosting a genre on how we can start serving our planet seemed the right step to do. Most of the time we simply do not know what to do or what really is needed from us. So each week I will bring you different experts on what we can do for our planet to sustain it for our future.

I am very involved in Energime University” where educating through on-line mentorship helps our next generation to understand our earth’s needs and in our own sustainability.  Each of the many ordinary extraordinary people I interview are proactively doing something in sustainability and in such innovative ways.

So join me each week on ECO Solutions and see who is making a difference one step at a time, you will be heartened and inspired by what we can do in such simple ways.

17-002 Podcasting/Video Blogging Etiquette

Join Sara Troy on Sara’s View of Life, on-air from January 10th

Being a radio blog host or Podcaster requires some skill and ability to bring the best out of your guest. It is not about you unless you are doing a show about you only even then if it does not speak to the masses with a topic of interest they will not listen to you.

Do not become a host because you want fame or money, it takes time from you and conviction, do it because you want to support others.

Rules of conduct when being a podcast guest. 1. Respond on time with the material your host needs for the show. 2. Understand your host's style and respect it or choose another podcast to go to. 3. Be on time for t

Being a guest on a media blog/podcast requires respect and gratitude, for someone is promoting you because they like what you stand for and doing to enhance the lives of others. You do not come demanding nor say “how many listeners” as that implies your not interested unless they have the numbers to serve you if you only serve one person that is what matters.

The authenticity of self and Sincerity in one’s service,  and in respect, and consideration for the time someone has taken out to interview should always be remembered. For some, this is a hobby but still costs them to produce, for some like us here at Self Discovery Media, it is a business, a serves that inspires, invites and guides people on their own journey in life.

With so many podcasting/video blogging out there today, one can be overwhelmed by who is doing what. Do not just go on air just because, but make sure the show genre represents you first and your story and work/topic, and that the interviewer has a style that suits you.

Many podcasts are now Video as well as audio, so if you are doing a video podcast, please make sure that you have good lighting, sound ( earplugs and a mic), and dress for the camera, clean and somewhat smart.

One must understand, THIS IS WORK, it takes time and commitment, respect, and the ability along with a passion, to listen and communicate with your listeners and guests.

If a host charges, it is because there have costs involved and maybe it is their full-time job, please respect their commitment and that it is their work and a service in promoting you and your work.

I Sara Troy am a host of over 2700 + shows personally and run a media-video/podcast network Self Discovery Media where we have over 3000 collective shows +. I am going to share some tips with you on being a guest on a show and also how to host your own shows.

16-51&52 Seed, Water, Nurture 2017 Possibilities

Sara Troy on Sara’s View of Life, on air from December 20-January 2nd 

seeding

We have worked hard to for fill our dreams, to build our platform, to reach those goals. The Year 2017 is the year where the harvest will grow higher enough to pick and abundance will be achieved.

I have been on this journey for nearly 5 years, and when I first started out in radio blogging, I had no idea it would be what it is today and I am so proud of how far I have come. From that first show back in April 2012, I have made many discoveries about myself along the way, one of them being “Yes I can do it, I can reach my dreams.”

When I first started out I knew nothing, it was all by the seat of my pants, winging it as they say. Now with a very clear vision, I see where I want to go, what needs to be achieved now, and I see before me the path to my accomplishment.

The one thing I know above all else is that I am doing what I was designed to do in life,  this is my calling my meaningful purpose and I am just getting started.  The vision I see before me, the cohesive, harmonious collaborations already in play, the symphony of my choir is singing its song loud and clear.

So come hear what 2017 means for Self Discovery Radio, for me and for all of us, for I am doing this to serve all of you. I have seeded, watered nurtured for nearly 5 years, and now growth is before me, serving us as a whole, as a community as a global concern.
