Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Marleen Karen, on air from March 21st
Maureen had a stroke which interrupted her career, but what she learnt from it and how it has helped her become a better mentor, is profound. She helps women of colour, find their own way forward into living a life of choice, care, community, and communication, so they are living their best life.
We empower BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Colour) professional women who are stuck on the corporate ladder to move forward in their career.
?are you a professional female who’s sick and tired of only “staying in your lane” when you KNOW that you were meant for more?
?is the excuse of HR hiring another candidate who was the right fit when you not only have all the requirements, but EXCEED them as well?
?is being overlooked, ignored and only being given menial tasks no longer your cup of tea?
?are you exhausted from having those same old headaches and pain of constantly overworking in your position, but not being valued or appreciated for your labour?
Ever since leaving high school, I have always been either the only or one of 2 or 3 Black female students in the classroom. However, I did not let that disparity prevent me from excelling and proving myself and my worth. By continually progressing due to being denied advancement on the educational and professional front, I quickly realized that I was an example of a dichotomous division in those circles. Also, I became acutely aware of limitations that I, as a Black female, would have to face since there’s a huge lack of representation which hinders my ability to take part in innovative and inclusive practices.

An Authors Kiss with Sara Troy and her guest Abigail Child, on air from March 21st
Legendary Experimental & Documentary Filmmaker Abigail Child Receives Career Retrospective at NYC’s Anthology Film Archives .
At times playful and at others intensely provocative, the cinema of Abigail Child has been a cornerstone of the American avant-garde film movement since the late 1970s. Poet, visual artist and filmmaker Abigail Child has absorbed the best of mentors like Jonas Mekas, experimental icons like Marie Menken, Len Lye & Arthur Lipsett, and has been a trailblazer for LGBTQIA+ artists alongside fellow game-changers like Barbara Hammer and Yvonne Rainer.
The work is emotionally probing, intellectually challenging, and visually arresting. Every image is a masterful flourish filled with power, and each sounds an alarm, a call to arms for each of us to march forward in our own personal journey.
A destroyer of boundaries and builder of bridges, the work traverses the finest experimental cinema and the very best of the documentary form.
These fantastic works have been lovingly curated in a long overdue career retrospective for Abigail Child, presented at New York’s Anthology Film Archives from March 24th to the 28th, 2023.
Abigail Childhas been at the forefront of experimental writing and media since the 1980s, having completed more than thirty film/video works & installations and written six books. An acknowledged pioneer in montage, Child addresses the interplay between sound and image to make, in the words of LA Weekly: “brilliant, exciting work…a vibrant political filmmaking that’s attentive to form.”

Ignite your heart and soul with Sara Troy and her guest Julie Carmen, on air from March 21st
What does it mean to have an indigenous soul? An indigenous soul is what keeps us alive and connects us to the All. The All of this planet and this solar system. The All is how we connect with All the people, all with an indigenous soul. By having an indigenous soul, you are from this planet, from this solar system/galaxy, and are part of the movement it has. Each solar system/galaxy has a movement and a purpose.
I am a woman of Mexican descent, of Indigenous Ancestry. My grandparents came from the state of Zacatecas, Mexico. I am a mother of 5 grown children and a grandmother of 27 and a great grandmother of 10. In this time of my life, my grandchildren are my Loving salve of my life as they bring into my life much meaning and this is why I do my work and word. I come from a long line of Curanderas-The Seer of the Alma- walking in both worlds of the physical and non-physical, being in the knowing of them both from birth, walking them both in all eternally, and at times in struggle in the human realm of being. That is how The School Without Walls came to Be. As we all walk this earth life, we human and alma beings walk both worlds whether we are conscious or not of that fact. So.. why not awaken to All of it – both worlds. As these both worlds do not have boundaries… hence.. the creation of The School Without Walls.

Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Anne K. Howard, on air from March 14th
In early 2022, life in the port city of Mariupol, Ukraine was safe and predictable for Adoriana Marik. The 31-year-old tattoo artist loved walking her dog by the seaside and meeting friends at cafes and public gardens. But all that changed on February 24, 2022, when Russian President Vladimir Putin launched his “special military operation.”
Adoriana was forced to hide in a filthy network of basements and underground tunnels. For more than a month, under deafening round-the-clock bombardment, she huddled with little food or water, and no heat, surrounded by groans from the sick and the smell of death. She decided to escape.
ESCAPE FROM MARIUPOL: A Survivor’s True Story is the tale of her perilous journey to freedom, an incredible tale of a brave young woman’s indomitable will to survive. As told to award-winning author Anne K. Howard, the book is a must-read for those who appreciate tales of extraordinary courage.
Anne Howard AKA Anika Savoy is an award-winning author and attorney who has always felt a supernatural pull. A healthy skeptic, she can’t deny her near-death experience and the shift it made in her life and writing. She attended McGill University and graduated with distinction in 1988 with a B.A. in English Literature. While at McGill, she won several creative writing contests. Thereafter, she wrote three historical romance novels. In 1998, Anika changed course and pursued her lifelong dream of becoming an attorney. She graduated from University of Cincinnati, College of Law with Dean’s Honors in 2001 and practiced law for almost 20 years. Now, Anika returns to her first love: writing historical romance. She endeavors to add paranormal elements that take readers into a fairy tale universe where ghosts and witches exist, and happy endings abound.
We will touch on her exposé or this book, but leave it to you to see , read and hear more.
His Garden: Conversations with a Serial Killer
A lawyer gets inside the mind of a notorious New England serial killer in this award-winning and “grimly compelling” true crime (Kirkus).
For nine months of 2003, William Devin Howell went on a killing spree in and around New Britain, Connecticut. Seven people went missing; all of their bodies were eventually discovered in a wooded lot behind a strip mall. But the investigation that led to Howell’s arrest is only part of the story.
Attorney and author Anne K. Howard first contacted Howell while he was serving a fifteen-year sentence for one of his murders. He was about to be charged for the remaining six. A unique and disturbing friendship between the two began, comprised of written correspondence, face-to-face prison visits, and recorded phone calls. Over the course of years, Howell shared his troubled history with Howard. When his case was finally over, he told her every intimate, grizzly detail of how he became Connecticut’s most prolific serial killer.
In His Garden, Howard probes the complicated mind of William Devin Howell. It is a story that explores the eternal question of human evil and its impact on others, including the woman he chose to hear his horrific confession.
I have seldom come across a more forensically researched book about a serial killer, helped by the author’s remarkable access to the man himself. William Howell is a monster – but when in conversation with Anne Howard, he becomes a pliable witness to his own grizzly life story. His testimony and confessions to her were comprehensive and revelatory – neither the Police nor his own lawyers got the full story of Connecticut’s worst serial killer – Anne Howard did. AKA ANIKA Will Hanrahan, TV Producer, BBC, Netflix, A&E, Discovery ID.
