25-14. What makes me ME


Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from April 8th

A few years back, I came across the True Colours personality traits, and in doing so, I truly discovered me—why I respond the way I do, how I connect, and what shapes my interactions with the world. In this piece, I’m sharing a glimpse into who I am beyond the mic, beyond podcasting and a little about the heart and soul behind my program.

As a guide in True Colours and a harmonizer of Astrology, Chinese wisdom, and soul traits,
I believe in walking the path I invite others to explore—
So let me share a glimpse of my own cosmic palette.

? Year of the HorseFreedom, Energy, and Passionate Movement

People born in the Year of the Horse are spirited, independent, and full of life-force energy. They are action-takers, curious explorers, and often seek meaning through movement and experience. Horses don’t like being fenced in—they thrive when they feel free to roam, grow, and evolve on their own terms.

  • Core traits: Energetic • Courageous • Social • Restless
  • Gifts: Motivation, charisma, and a zest for life
  • Challenges: Impulsivity, fear of stagnation, aversion to control

? LibraBalance, Beauty, and Harmony in All Things

Libra is ruled by Venus, the planet of love, art, and relationships. Libras seek balance—not only in the external world but also in their inner emotional and spiritual lives. They are peacekeepers and bridge-builders, always sensing the subtle energies in relationships and striving to bring fairness and understanding.

  • Core traits: Diplomatic • Idealistic • Graceful • Indecisive
  • Gifts: Social intelligence, aesthetic sense, emotional diplomacy
  • Challenges: Over-accommodation, difficulty making firm choices

? True Colour: BlueThe Heart of the Soul

Blue is the colour of connection, authenticity, and emotional depth. Blue personalities are nurturers, caregivers, and spiritual guides. They live with feeling at the forefront and have a powerful need to make others feel seen, heard, and loved.

  • Core traits: Empathetic • Loyal • Intuitive • Idealistic
  • Gifts: Deep listening, soul-centered love, emotional healing
  • Challenges: Sensitivity to disharmony, emotional overwhelm, self-neglect

?? The Correlation:

The Horse moves, Libra balances, and Blue feels.

Together, they create a personality that is:

  • Soulful yet spirited – You need movement, but it must have meaning.
  • Compassionate but free – You love deeply but must never feel emotionally caged.
  • Driven by ideals—Your actions come from a place of deep personal truth, whether through justice, connection, or creativity.
  • Naturally magnetic – People are drawn to your energy, your empathy, and your integrity.

In Harmony:
This trio can be incredibly powerful when aligned. The Horse gives you the courage to move, Libra helps you move gracefully, and Blue ensures you move with heart. You have the capacity to inspire, to heal, and to lead by example.

In Challenge:
You may feel torn between needing freedom (Horse), wanting harmony (Libra), and feeling deeply responsible for others (Blue). You can over-give, overthink, or overextend—especially when trying to please everyone while staying true to yourself.


? Your Soul Strategy:

Lead with your heart, but let your mind and spirit guide the pace.

Honor your need for emotional expression, even when you’re on the move.

Seek balance, not perfection. Let your peace come from flow, not control.

Nurture yourself as much as you nurture others.

? Sara’s Cosmic Personality Portrait

(Libra Sun • Wood Horse • Blue, Green, Orange, Gold • Air, Water, Fire, Earth)


??? You are a harmonious blend of vision and heart, structure and spontaneity.

Your Libra Sun gifts you with grace, diplomacy, and a deep desire to create balance—in the world and within yourself. You are a natural peacemaker, drawn to beauty, fairness, and meaningful connection.

Your Wood Horse energy brings bold independence and vibrant movement. You’re intuitive yet adventurous, emotionally rich but always ready for the next leap of purpose. This combination makes you both grounded and driven, thoughtful and brave.


? Your True Colours Reflect a Multi-Faceted Soul:

  • ? Blue – The Nurturer
    You lead with your heart. Empathetic, soulful, and sincere, you care deeply about others and crave connection rooted in truth and authenticity.
  • ? Green – The Visionary
    Your mind seeks understanding. You are logical, curious, and wise beyond words, always exploring the deeper meanings and patterns behind life.
  • ? Orange – The Adventurer
    Energy and excitement light your path. You love variety, hands-on experience, and the freedom to express yourself with boldness and creativity.
  • ? Gold – The Anchor
    Loyalty, tradition, and service ground you. You find fulfillment in commitment, organization, and being someone others can rely on.

? Elemental Harmony in You:

  • Air lifts your voice and imagination—communication is your gift.
  • Water flows through your soul—emotions are your strength, not your weakness.
  • Fire fuels your passion—you move with purpose and light others along the way.
  • Earth gives you roots—you build, preserve, and nurture all you care about.

? In Essence…

You are a bridge—a soul who balances the seen and unseen, the practical and the mystical, the now and the next. You hold the space for others to grow, and in doing so, you blossom continuously. Your presence is felt as warmth, wisdom, and wonder.

It’s not about labeling. It’s about illuminating—offering clarity, confidence, and deeper connection to your authentic self.


? True Colours Personality Insights

Explore your unique personality makeup through the internationally recognized True Colours assessment. Whether you lead with:

  • Blue – the harmonizer

This process helps you understand how you interact, communicate, and respond, bringing awareness to your strengths and helping you navigate personal and professional relationships more effectively.

S.E.L.F. stands for:

MH25-14. Don Mesibov on Autisic Poetry


Mental Health Awareness with Sara Troy and her guest Don Mesibov, on air from April 8th

I met Connor Newcombe at a reading of my book on autism. He’s a college graduate, but due to the anxiety and stress rooted in his experience growing up with autism, holding a traditional job isn’t possible for him. Tasks that require long focus become overwhelming. Still, he’s found purpose by joining me in autism workshops.

At one session, a two-hour workshop a 45-minute drive from our town, Connor spoke for just five minutes about what it’s like to live with autism. The 25 participants applauded him warmly. Though he only added a few comments afterward, several attendees made a point to thank him personally.

On the way home, Connor turned to me and said, “Don, this has been one of the best days of my life.” It was a powerful moment—this is someone who’s rarely felt affirmed.

Then, as we drove, Connor told me he writes poetry and asked if our Institute could help publish his work. The next day, he emailed me 43 poems. They were beautiful—reflections on nature, his grandmother, cats, and everyday observations. I had several English teachers read them, and they agreed: his talent was real.

I told Connor, “Your poems are wonderful, but if you want your collection to stand out, write more about your experiences as someone living with autism.”

“How many do I need?” he asked.

“101 sounds like a good number,” I replied.

Without missing a beat, he said, “Then I need 58 more. I’ll send you one poem a day.”

That’s the kind of spirit we believe in, the voices that deserve to be heard, the stories that deserve to be told. That’s why we do this work. Because it matters.

Our ideal customer is one who wants to make the world a better place for ALL people, including but not limited to people with autism.

We are an all-volunteer 30 30-year-old 501 (c) (3) organization of 150 people interested in helping people become aware of what autism is and what it is not.

In recent months, we’ve held eight two-hour Discussion Sessions and reached 175 individuals—educators, first responders, and community members—who regularly engage with people on the autism spectrum, often with little training or support. More sessions are coming in January to Northern NY, North Carolina, and California. These are the people we aim to empower—with understanding, compassion, and practical knowledge.

Don’s commitment runs deep. His brother, Gary, was a global leader in autism education from 1973 to 2018, directing the renowned TEACCH program in Chapel Hill, NC. Gary’s expertise was sought by figures as prominently as the King of Saudi Arabia and a top Russian official whose daughter was autistic.

Why does Don continue this mission with such heart?
“We do it because we can, and we do it because it’s right.”Don

As for Connor, like many on the spectrum, he thrives on structure. When I asked for more poems to help shape his story into a book, he promised one a day. True to his word, he delivered—day after day.

Because with the right encouragement, people rise. And with the right support, voices long unheard begin to sing.

“I Didn’t Become Selfish, I Became Harder to Manipulate”


“I Didn’t Become Selfish, I Became Harder to Manipulate”

A Powerful eBook & Audio Experience ?

Too many of us know the sting of manipulation…
The subtle control, the emotional coercion, and the bullying are masked as love or care.

This isn’t just a book—it’s a movement of truth-telling.
In this compelling multi-author eBook and Audio, 27 courageous souls—both men and women from across the globe—have come together to bare their stories.
Stories of reclaiming power.
By saying “no more,”
Of finding their way back to self-worth and soul-sovereignty.

Each chapter is a doorway into personal transformation—raw, honest, and resonant. And it doesn’t stop on the page…
This book is paired with an audio version where each author reads their own chapter aloud so you can feel the truth, the emotion, and the breakthroughs in their own voice.

If you’ve ever felt trapped in someone else’s narrative, this book is for you.
If you’ve ever been told you’re “too much” or “not enough,”
If choosing yourself has been mistaken for selfishness.

You are not alone.
These stories are here to remind you:
You are worthy. You are powerful. And you deserve to live free from manipulation.

I, Sara Troy, am honored to be a part of this book, as it is a topic often brought up in our shows, placing value upon yourself is not being selfish. Do enjoy.

Collection of 5 Novels Published Posthumously as a Tribute to her husband by Pamela Blake who Receives Critical Acclaim

Grief and the journey of finding the best way to honor a loved one who has passed is a profound theme explored in his work. Each of his books presents intriguing storylines and themes that captivate readers, making them relevant even decades after being written. His coming-of-age novel, A Map of the Edge, set in 1969, delivers a powerful message about self-discovery and transformation. Looking ahead, his dystopian novel Tomorrowville imagines what the world might look like in 2088, offering a thought-provoking glimpse into the future. Blending mysticism with mystery, Things Unseen adds a unique twist to the murder-mystery genre.
