TSM22-10 Michael Roberts& Behind Sacred Walls


Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Michael Roberts, on air from March 8th

Michael Roberts, author of the new memoir Behind Sacred Walls: The True Story of My Abuse by Catholic Priests. In an interview, Michael will talk about navigating his sexuality as a gay man — prior to, during, and after the abuse.

Throughout his childhood and teenage years, religion played an important role in Michael’s life. Growing up within a Catholic family in an all-American small town, not only informed his belief system but created the perfect conditions for him to be groomed and later abused by several priests. The added layers of religious shame and the fear of his family finding out that he was homosexual were factors in the physical and psychological abuse he suffered at the hands of priests. His nearly ten years of abuse took place under the eye of the Catholic Church, as was the institutionalized cover-up by high members of the Church.

Roberts fought alone against this centuries-old, untouchable institution in search of some form of repair and control over his destiny. He completed his college education, graduating from a prestigious university with a bachelor’s degree in Biological Science. His new book, Behind Sacred Walls, is a cathartic, cautionary tale about blind faith, broken trust, and the loss of innocence of a young man trying to survive deep betrayal and trauma.


Michael Roberts has worked as an environmental technician and as a sales and marketing manager for a biotech company that makes implements to pharmaceutical research to develop drugs. Prior to this, Micahel worked as a professional model in Paris, Rome, and the United States. He has appeared in television commercials and numerous print ads and catalogs, as well as runway shows. Michael is married to his partner, Johnathan, with whom he enjoys traveling around the world. His future plans include volunteer work in wildlife conservation to help save endangered species.

Suave and sophisticated, Elia is an architect residing in Hudson Valley, New York circa 1992 where he failed, conventional marriage with Beth is leaving him uneasy with life. Marriage, in general, can be hard enough but throw in Beth’s mental illness and years of trying to keep it all together – everyone, including Elia was surprised it lasted as long as it did. Then, a chance encounter with the alluring, hedonist Anais over morning coffee helps him to regain the passions he thought he lost forever.


Ella and Anais find themselves drawn together in a hot and uninhibited affair as they attempt to find harmony in the analogy of their opposites. In their attempt to free themselves from the conventions and taboos of the adolescent bourgeoisie sexual mores, they eventually find themselves shackled to an inescapable mutual love they never anticipated and equally fear. But is this love enough to sustain their boomer lives?

Richard Cirulli is an author, playwright, and founder of the Demitasse Players, a 501 (c ) (3) charity. Founded on the mission to write and produce plays to bring awareness to mental health, the Demitasse Players aim to remove the many taboos of mental illness. They teach people about mental disorders, and how these illnesses impact caregivers, friends, and family. For more information, please visit:

C22-10 Ros McMaster is Living a full life.

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Ros McMaster, on air from March 8th

There are two things we can know with certainty. First, we were born. Second, we will die.
Life changes fast. Life can change in an instant.
In 2008, I attended a Buddhist course on Death & Dying while volunteering at their Hospice service.
“At the time of your passing,” Chodron said, “it’s important to be at peace spiritually.
Whatever you believe, believe in it fully. There’s a great deal of peace and comfort at the end of life if you firmly believe that something greater, more powerful, and more beautiful is waiting for you.” BUT; Life is for fully living in the now with soul enrichment and gratitude abundance, you will eventually pass over with peace in your heart and soul.

“At the time of your passing” Chodron added, “it’s important to be at peace emotionally.
Despite walking a spiritual path for many decades, the workshop was causing me to question the strength of my faith; and more importantly, the emotional health of the relationships around me – non more so than the relationship I had with myself. Much later, I understood that moving deeper into exploring those two principles helped me set a path that sustained me when death, grief, and loss knocked at my door. Not once, not twice, but five times.
Life, I came to realise, is fragile and unpredictable. My search for emotional peace began with a simple act of gratitude, and lead me down the path of self-worth, forgiveness, and the shedding of years of fear that kept me from living my most authentic empowered self.

Getting Psyched

In 1997, I obtained a Psychology Degree, opened a counselling practice specialising in regression therapy and sand play, and began using my gifts as a psychic medium in conjunction with mainstream therapy processes.

After years of study in both mainstream and alternate therapies, I have now opened myself up to working in a deeper way with spirit to bring emotional healing that is transformative and lasting. 

Spirit knocked a little louder

Two years after my 30yr marriage came to an end, I was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer. I’m now a proud cancer survivor. One year later, in 2017, I nursed my ex-husband until he passed away, 5 weeks after his own cancer diagnosis. 

The deep levels of inner healing which I underwent during my most challenging times, led me to my authentic self. Towards freedom from fear, and an unconditionally loving heart.

IG22-09 Richard V. Battle, What Money Can’t Buy.

Ignite your heart and soul with Sara Troy and her guest Richard V. Battle, on air from March 1st.
~Award-winning author and motivational speaker, Richard v. Battle

While we all need money to survive, no amount of money can buy peace, happiness, joy, love, or friendship. Yet, humans continue to pursue riches believing it will solve their problems. A recent article in The Philadelphia Inquirer details treasure hunters suing the federal government for documents related to a lost civil war gold shipment. The military lost the gold in 1863, and hunters have pursued it since. Finders Keepers, a group, led by the Parada family, have spent decades searching for the treasure and are plaintiffs in the lawsuit.

“We must prioritize faith, family, and relationships over the acquisition of money. It is effortless for men to fall into the trap of prioritizing providing financially for their families and missing the essential things in life. It is essential to live balancing our spiritual, family, physical, mental, financial, and social areas of life,” believes Battle, whose faith in God helped him survive heart procedures, divorce, cancer, surviving an apartment fire that killed his neighbor, rebounding from financial devastation, and the crushing blow of his only son’s passing.

“I don’t find anything wrong with hunting treasure or pursuing wealth. We can secure our financial freedom and improve our lifestyles. Still, we can never measure wealth using money,” says the award-winning author of eight books Richard V. Battle including the latest one, Life’s Daily Treasure: 366 Doses of Hope, Optimism, Personal growth, and Encouragement“Like so many other things, obsessive and extreme efforts can skew our view of life and deprive us of enjoying those things money can’t buy.”


Richard’s book provides daily doses of inspiration, motivation, and American celebration to lift people’s spirits. The one subject absent from each day, and the book is MONEY because money won’t buy you happiness; instead, it will buy a better brand of misery.

Richard V. Battle is an award-winning and best-selling author of eight books, including his latest book ‘Life’s Daily Treasure’ which provides timeless positive messages. The nuggets within stimulate thought, lift spirits, and inspire action to enhance the reader’s life, all of which they influence for years to come.
