IG26-09. Janet M. Schwartz, Ph.D. Authentic Intelligence.


Ignite your heart and soul with Sara Troy and her guest Janet M. Schwartz, Ph.D. On air from March 3rd

I am a forever believer in the potential for humanity.  I want to help you, your family, your community, your state, our country, and all nations.  As Authentic Human Beings, we yearn for Authentic connections, and we may discover them in random moments throughout our day.  My hope is to awaken our need to attach to one another, to awaken our want to help every Authentic other, and to cultivate an interest in expressing Authentic caring in a conversational art form. 

The dawn of each new day presents abundant opportunities for us to bring new energy to the forefront.  One way to begin anew is by understanding our Treasure of Intelligences.  By feeding our mental, emotional, and spiritual intelligences and making them work together, we will begin to view ourselves, those we love, and those we help through lenses of possibility rather than through lenses of limitations.  Tapping into your Authentic Intelligence  (AI+) is the only way to have the clarity and knowing you need to live your full potential and enjoy emotional well-being.

Improvements in how we treat each other, the quality of our solutions to our problems and more are on the horizon. Rise up, stand tall and raise your voices as we work one-on-one, family-by-family, community-by-community, state-by-state, and nation-by-nation to build a world unafraid to answer the call.

I currently serve as President & Forensic Behavioral Scientist of Forensic Fraud Research, Inc., a non-profit, not-for-fee investigative firm that became affiliated with the National White Collar Crime Center in 2003.  To protect the confidentiality of sources and colleagues, I am the only face associated with the firm, though the organization is comprised of many skilled professionals along with federal, state, and local authorities.

Author & speaker Dr. Jan Mielke Schwartz, “is considered to be one of the most theoretically minded, hopeful, and erudite professionals in the fields of Criminology, Forensic Behavioral Science, Intelligence, and Homeland Security.” (LAWeekly.com: September 28, 2022)  She brings warmth, authenticity, conviction, and a ‘knowing’ of how to navigate the fine line between optimism and pessimism into her projects.  Noted by the University of Pittsburgh as “one of those who show high promise of significant contribution to society and progress,” her first book, Last Summer with Oscar:  An Adventurous True Story of Love and Courage, launched as an international bestseller on Amazon.com which was followed by a how-to-do-it Last Summer with Oscar Workbook.  Jan is presently completing a new non-fiction book, “Authentic Intelligence:  How to Use Your Mental, Emotional & Spiritual Gifts to Create the Life – and World – You Want.

Jan was devoted to working with children and families for seventeen years.  She taught grades K, 1, 7 and 8, coordinated a gifted program for middle school youngsters, and worked as a child counselor at a domestic violence shelter prior to receiving graduate training to become a family psychologist.  However, the discovery of any evidence catapulted her from dreaming of one day having a free family therapy clinic to a career in forensic fraud research.  With great effort and unusual collaboration, the evidence unfolded into numerous state and multi-state investigations.  Over the subsequent years, Schwartz became an internationally known expert on the white-collar organized crime and the white-collar organized community as she continued her intelligence gathering efforts that contribute to strengthening our country and helping to build a better, safer world.

A forever believer in the potential of humanity, Jan cares deeply about helping individuals, families, communities, states, and all nations as they strive to thrive, heal, and further their growth and effectiveness.  She welcomes hearing from one and all.

BB26-08. Ai Paradigm Shift with Eddy Balaya


Building Your Business with Sara Troy and her guest Eddy Balaya, on air from February 24th

AI a shiny object or a paradigm shift

“The speed at which AI is evolving is truly exponential — far faster than the human mind can comfortably process or adapt to. For many, it feels overwhelming, uncertain, and even intimidating. That is why my mission is to help business owners and executive leaders shift their mindset, so they can approach AI not from fear, but from clarity, curiosity, and strategic intention.

It isn’t about trying to learn everything or chasing every new tool. It’s about understanding where to focus — what truly matters, what will have lasting impact, and how to integrate AI in ways that strengthen human insight, creativity, and leadership.

Through my work, I hope to debunk common myths, reduce unnecessary anxiety, and offer practical tips and simple frameworks that leaders can apply today, tools that help them make informed decisions, stay adaptable, and lead confidently in this rapidly changing landscape.”

I’ve taken more than a few leaps of faith in my life—and I’m grateful for every one of them. Born in India as a French citizen, I grew up in Pondicherry, attending a French school where my accent shaped how I’d speak every language after. In 2006, I moved to France for my studies and began working. My first IT job came right after I admitted I didn’t know how to install antivirus software. From there, I went from sales to leading global network infrastructure for a multinational company, working with telecom giants like NTT, Tata, and Orange.

While friends were settling down, I felt pulled toward something more. In 2017, I immigrated to Canada with nothing but two suitcases and no safety net—delivering food on a bike to start over. By 2019, I was back in a leadership role at a major financial firm. A year later, I lost the home I was about to buy after an unexpected layoff. That loss led me to co-found an IT company, which ultimately didn’t work out, leaving me in debt and sleeping in my Honda Civic. I regrouped, restarted, and in 2021, launched what is now Datasphere Dynamics.

I landed a long-term contract with a U.S. Tech firm, bought a house, and rebuilt—but once again, the role ended during a company reorg. This time, instead of going back, I chose to go all in on my own path, investing in coaching and mentorship to turn Datasphere into a business that truly reflects my purpose: helping business owners take control of their tech with the clarity and confidence they deserve.

BB26-06. Tina Baxter’s Nurse Shark Academy


Building your business with Sara Troy and her guest Tina Marie Baxter, on air from February 10th

My journey as an entrepreneur began with a side hustle. I started as a broke nursing student who needed extra cash so I taught CPR classes. I did not know anything about corporate contracts, cash flow, or marketing. It wasn’t until years later that I understood what being an entrepreneur meant and how nurses make excellent entrepreneurs.

As nurse business owners, many of us are used to following the rules, checking the boxes, and doing everything “by the book.” But in business, leadership looks different. It’s about courage — taking risks, making hard decisions, and standing firm in your vision.

Let’s be honest — comfort zones don’t create impact.

If you want to grow sustainably, you must lead courageously. Here are 3 ways to start:

 1. Raise Your Standards (and Your Prices)
Your experience and expertise deserve compensation that reflects your value. Review your rates and increase them by 10–20% for new clients — confidently, not apologetically.

 2. Set Boundaries That Protect Your Energy
Your time is your most valuable asset. Identify one boundary you’ve neglected — like limiting after-hours client messages — and start enforcing it this week.

 3. Make One Bold Move Toward Expansion
Growth requires boldness. Whether it’s hiring support, launching a new program, or stepping into visibility, do it even if you’re scared. Courage comes before confidence.

You didn’t start this business playing it small. You started to make an impact.

 What courageous move are you making this month?

Sharmiley D. was born in Guyana to Caribbean Indian parents in an arranged marriage. She grew up in a culture where beating children was considered normal, where discipline passed as love, and silence spoke loudest. She believed all families were like this. No one said otherwise.

For much of her life, Sharmiley tried to see the good in others, even at the cost of her own well being. Emotional neglect, punishment, and abandonment felt normal. But they weren’t.

Her healing journey led her to yoga, coaching, EFT, breath-work, trauma therapy, and spiritual practices from around the world. She draws inspiration from the work of Dr. Gabor Maté, Dr. Peter Levine, and Franz Ruppert.
