IG24-03. Kimberly Braun is the Spiritual Light is the Spiritual Light


Ignite Your Heart and Soul with Sara Troy and her guest Rev Kimberly Braun, on air from January 16th

How to be a Force of Love amidst the dark and light within ourselves and in creation. 

The Power of Spiritual Community and/or Retreat (why?does it matter, what they do for you, how to go about discerning your choice) 

The paradox of your path being both solitary and part of a collective. What does this even mean and how do we walk our paths most fully in light of the paradox?

How to ask the questions that will truly open us to the life satisfying answers. In life we oftentimes have desires to understand or experience or know something for all the right reasons, but why is it our questions sometimes yield the fruit of a sublime answer and at other times it seems we go unheard and unanswered?

IG23-51. Shawna James is Magical


Ignite your heart and soul with Sara Troy and her guest Shawna James, on air from December 19th

Magic. Life is full of it. For years, in the corporate world, my teams would hear me repeat my mantra, “I have a magic wand and I know how to use it.”  That was my truth, though at a level I didn’t even yet realize, until a life-altering encounter with COVID-19 changed my trajectory and had me doubting everything I thought I knew. I found myself compelled to embrace stillness on my healing journey, discovering that true healing resonates on the level of frequency.

While we’ve been taught the importance of daily nutritional health for our bodies, we must not forget that we are not merely physical beings. The question then arises: what kind of ‘nutrition’ are we providing for our mental, emotional, energetic, and spiritual health? As we are surrounded by frequencies and energies, it’s the raising of our vibration to a level of harmony and resonance with the higher frequencies that contribute to our fullest expression. Now, more than ever, we are awakening to our inherent power. The daily practices we adopt are not just routine and self-care is not merely a luxury; they are the keys to unlocking our latent potential, allowing us to wield the magic that lies within with profound clarity and intention.

With a wealth of experience from two decades in personal and corporate training, Shawna James saw her early career bolstered by the privilege of working alongside and observing closely revered industry leaders, such as Tony Robbins and Deepak Chopra. The insights into the human potential and resilience were put to the test when her journey through a crucible of personal health challenges lighted a path towards vibrational healing and self-discovery. 

In the aftermath of her health ordeal, Shawna turned inward, harnessing her training in Reiki, hypnosis, and neuro-linguistic programming to forge a new path of wellness rooted in the subtleties of energy work. She is now a steadfast advocate for the transformative power of frequency and resonance as tools for profound self-healing.

Dedicated to raising the collective vibration, Shawna’s approach is rooted in the belief that each individual’s path to healing and growth is sovereign, unique, and one-of-one. She empowers others to discover their own vibrational signature and awaken to their spiritual consciousness. Her vision is clear: by honoring the uniqueness of our journeys, we activate the full spectrum of our inner wisdom and step into a life of deliberate authenticity and enchantment. We have begun the journey of remembering who we really are. It’s time we begin to practice living A Different Normal. If enough of us change ourselves, we will change the world.

IG23-47. Karen Michalson, and Our Creative Spirit


Ignite Your Heart and Soul with Sara Troy and her guest Karen Michalson, on air from November 21st

We are Speaking of law, madness, alienation, music, creativity, divinity, and other interesting matters, and how to ignite the creative spirit amongst the chaos.

Karen Michalson, musician and author of several award-winning novels, including THE MAENAD’S GOD and THE ENEMY GLORY TRILOGY (ENEMY GLORY, HECATE’S GLORY, and THE KING’S GLORY) returns to continue our conversation about the ancient spiritual war against art and creativity, which is really a war against our true selves.

Is creativity (not just in the arts, but in all areas of human endeavor), an inalienable aspect of being human, and if it is, why do so many of us feel the need to hide it? Where does this unearned sense of shame around being our true selves come from?  Why should external forces dictate how we see and know ourselves?  Other topics to be continued from our 8/28/23 podcast include:

  • Alienation. Why some people are cynical and ‘done with society’?
  • The nature of divinity; creativity as a way into some kind of higher reality; imagination as a sacred space
  • How creativity is an art of rebellion – and a healing force
  • The degree to which reality and fantasy inform each other
  • Whether creating a private world is a subversive act against a toxic culture.

Michalson explores these ideas in THE MAENAD’S GOD, the story of a spiritual war that’s been fought for thousands of years; the war between the ancient arts of music, poetry, and love; and the equally ancient forces of artistic envy, oppressive law, and authoritarian religion:

Boston 1992. Pete Morrow is an alienated FBI agent whose only escape from the colleagues and society he despises is through reading literary classics. When his boss sends him to warn away a drug dealer on an obscure army base, he discovers a murder and becomes obsessed with Jade McClellan, a mysterious man from Toronto whose rock band just performed at the crime scene. Tough-guy Morrow has never been in love before—but Jade is almost magical, an embodiment of myth and literature who creates living fantasies that rapidly become the only thing Morrow values in his otherwise miserable life.  But there’s a problem. Morrow is investigating a mafia family that is investing in Jade’s musical career. Being open about their relationship could get both of them killed.

THE MAENAD’S GOD was selected as a finalist for the 2023 IAN (Independent Author Network) Book of the Year Awards, in the LGBTQ+ Fiction category.
