C16/26b “#StateWithoutStigMA” and the Ryan Fund for addicts.

June 12, 2016August 7, 2021Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Ryan Skinner aired June 28th

Addiction-Stigma21

Dedicated to raising money for children who have been orphaned by parents who lost their struggle with addictions, veterans who are battling those destructive demons and the homeless, The Ryan Fund is one of the ways I have chosen to make good on my second chance at life. I was blessed with this in recovery after struggling for years with multiple addictions. The Ryan Fund is an extension of my mission to be of service, and to show people that despite the great odds, there is always hope.

When I think about how the idea for The Ryan Fund became an essential part of my life, several powerful images come to mind. When I was younger, I would drive down the highway into Boston and see a billboard with a picture of a beat up station wagon and the caption, “Apartment that Sleeps a Family of Six.” It was a wake up call to the homelessness and poverty that I had been blind to. I’ve always been a spiritual person, so I would pray to God to help me find a way to make a difference in the lives of people who lacked what I took for granted. At one point during my downward spiral of addiction, I lost my house to foreclosure and began waking up in sketchy places. This helped me understand their plight in ways I hoped I would never have to. When I entered the recovery phase, one of my goals was to give back and be a blessing to others. I began talking to addicts and those in recovery and donated extensively to numerous charities.

But there was still something more I knew I could do. The trigger to starting my own organisation, The Ryan Fund happened May 1, 2015, when I saw in the Boston Herald a photo of a 10 year old girl who had been orphaned by her parents, who died of overdoses just two weeks apart. I was immediately motivated to act. I reached out and contacted the organisation that was in charge of placing her or finding her a home. I inquired about adopting her. Because of my background of addictions, they wouldn’t let me apply. But I still wanted to give this girl and others like her a better life. That was the start of The Ryan Fund, but I have since expanded its outreach to help veterans and the homeless as well. These are our heroes who fought for our freedom and the system is letting so many of them down. They descend into addiction to help them cope with their problems and then get on a downward spiral intofull-blownn addiction. They need our help. The homeless need our help as well. I’m honoured now to have the opportunity to contribute to helping them find their way out of the darkness.

I just want to do something for these kids, veterans and the homeless – and look forward to working with The Ryan Fund to serve as many of them as possible. Working in the financial service for many years has well prepared me for the journey and challenges that lie ahead.

download (3) Under the leadership of Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker and Marylou Sudders, Secretary of the Executive Office of Health and Human Services, the Bay State has embarked on an extraordinary effort to become a “#StateWithoutStigMA” – using education as a tool to de-stigmatise drug misuse and addiction so that those who suffer from the chronic disease will become more likely to seek help or treatment. In her official message, Sudders writes, “Stigma hurts. Treatment works and recovery is possible.” No Massachusetts native more powerfully embodies the reality of this hope and deliverance from that darkness than Ryan Skinner.

While acknowledging that recovery is a lifelong process, Ryan is grateful that he can now share a harrowing story with a happy ending – because a handful of years ago, it easily could have ended for him in tragedy. He and some other friends he made who made it out – husbands, fathers, business owners, employees – hang out together weekly in a group Ryan and his sponsor Billy began hosting in his living room. They call their group “Dead Men on Vacation (DMOV),” because, he said, “Based on what we did to ourselves as addicts, we should all be dead.

We’re all grateful for second chances.”

People often find it ironic when Ryan tells them that being a drug addict was the best thing that could ever have happened to him, but they understand him once he explains: “I had a terrible fall and thank God now that I can help people who are going through it. It gave me a purpose and a strong connection with divinity and my fellow human beings and in essence, made me bulletproof. When parents come to me feeling hopeless about their addicted child and tell me ‘people don’t recover,’ I tell them ‘I recovered.’ Looking back, I realize that I was cancer in the lives of my parents, the children of my ex-wife and so many others – but now my only goal is to be a blessing to people. My day to day joy comes from being there for others like so many were there for me. If one less mother can cry herself to sleep because of me and my story, I feel like everything I have been through was worth it.

I’m blessed now and want to be a blessing to others.”

C16/24 Writing from a Sharmics view on life

June 2, 2016June 13, 2020Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Joceline Rochelle Tabacco aired June 14-th

13987431_284306948609203_6206063949788975733_o

My name is Joceline. I’ve lived in Modesto CA for the last 9 years. I travel the country to inspire people to awaken the country to love and kindness.
In preparation for our trip, I quit my job working as a 1:1 Aide in Special Education, sold my car, and moved out of my apartment. Then the US Government extended his deployment. This was an unforeseen obstacle, but we both agreed that I should start this journey without him so I did.
Regardless of who becomes our next president, I travel the US to spread the important message of Bernie Sander’s Political Revolution. I began my trek in Modesto CA. Then on June 9th, I crossed the Golden Gate Bridge headed North on 101 because of the rich history of San Francisco and that beautiful bridge.
We have back-pedaled as a nation. No matter who our next president is we do not have to accept the way life has become in our country any longer. It is time to stand up to our government, and tell them, “We are sick of how life is in the United States, and we demand change that will benefit all of us!”
My desire is to visit as many cities as possible to spread the message of Bernie Sander’s Political Revolution to balance to our country and to get Big $ out of our government. My goal is to arrive in Washington DC by presidential election day, November 8.
The great thing about this adventure is that my fiancé will join me when he returns to the states and we will have a much larger impact with the American people.
After rolling my truck eight times, re-learning to walk and talk, and reaching the unhealthy weight of 280 pounds I have reached full all-around health using natural means. I have been walking the shamanic path for years, and have gained loads of healing knowledge which I gladly pay forward to those who are interested.

Sometimes we get stuck, and it is always helpful to get new ideas.
Before my fiancé arrives I will have fun staying with fellow Americans who believe in what I’m doing even if you aren’t a Bernie supporter. We are all different, but we’re all human beings. So let’s forget our minor differences and enjoy one another’s company. The personal stories you share with me add even more fuel to my fire. Bern Baby Bern!!
I will keep you all informed of where I am, and I will share my adventures in articles and on video. Together we can make Bernie Sanders Political Revolution gain momentum.

I can’t do it alone America. I know that a large number of you feel the same way about our current state of things, so let’s work together and make this journey happen for all of us.
In order to continue this journey, I am grateful for any kindness you can show me. A place to stay, transportation, food, money for my basic needs and traveling costs.

I am thrilled to meet a large number of wonderful people. If you see me please say hi, and give me a hug. I warmly welcome anyone who would like to help with this project.

After all, we need each other to be our best. Together we can amplify this message to make a greater impact.

Peace Out For Now America =)

Joceline Rochelle

She read my article My Personal Spiritual Truths: As Promised, and asked if I would like to share with all of you on the air. Thank you, Sara, =)

Our discussion today is…..

We are all different. Our fingerprints, our DNA, our experiences, and our perception. Therefore, what works for one person is not exactly the same as what works for another person. Everything can and should be tailored to match our uniqueness. The only person who is qualified to decide what works for us is us. This is true in all areas of life. It is our responsibility to embrace our personal truths if we ever want to find true joy and inner peace. I bravely share my personal journey to inspire others to find themselves. Discovering who we really are is scary and takes time, but it is worth it. We all deserve the end result of loving ourselves for who we really are and embracing what we are really meant to do.

Joceline has taken a different path today away from the political view to raising and uniting our vibrations.

C16/23a Mind Body Soul and Spirit Health with Louky

May 25, 2016June 16, 2022Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Louky de Lange aired from June 7th

How-Did-Kinesiology-Begin

Louky de Lange is owner of UQ Healing. She was born in The Netherlands as the eldest child. Her father worked in the textile industry and her mother was a nurse. As a child she noticed how people got influenced by trauma. Her father was born in Indonesia as his parents emigrated there, and in the World War 2 her father was only 16 years old when put into a Japanese camp, without any other members of the family. He stayed there for 4 years.

After high school her parents advised her to do a secretarial training, so she would always have a job. After that Louky went to London for six months as an au-pair. Back home she studied English in the evening, while working as a secretary in the daytime. She married and divorced and her ex-husband was interested in homoeopathic and bodywork. Louky started reading about natural ways of healing. She got very interested in this and felt attracted to natural healing in such a way that she did a lot of training in it.

She did a training in Bach Flower Remedies, kinesiology, Zimmermann natural medicine, healthy water, vitamins and minerals, bodywork and healthy food and drinks.

In 1994 she went to the University of Utrecht to study psychology. She worked for someone who had her own practice for two years. After that seven years in a school for children with learning difficulties. She started her own practice in 2008.

13239435_10205756547585358_654759521311438201_n Louky found that the existing treatment methods could not bring her clients the benefit that she wanted them to have. So she started looking for other possibilities. She met someone during a series of Family Constellations that did a training in DofNA (Discharge of Neural Aspects). In 2010 she started the DofNA training. The first part was the basic treatment in which blockages that have been deeply rooted in the neural system will be released for life. The founder of DofNA told her about healing methods with numbers and so she found Carol Roberts and trained with her in Australia to master Genome Healing.

In Louky’s sessions you are taken into your organ systems and even your stem cells, so you can understand from within yourself what is going on at the subconscious levels. Together we can transform whatever negativity we find and activate new optimal functioning blueprints within these parts. Your organs themselves will tell you of the shifts as this happens. We may also need to release and resolve life traumas which can be blocking your emotional and physical well-being. These healings are also done for your ancestral lineage which may be having a negative effect on your present situation.

I am not doing the healing for you. I am getting you in touch with what is operating at subconscious levels which may not be serving you and we are transforming this together.

In 2012 Louky discovered a way of healing that has deepened itself over the years and she calls it the Diamond Method. In a session the stress is released from the nervous system and the energy dis-balance in the organs is detected and restored.

Louky’s main mission is to connect you to who you truly are and your heart. So you can live your life from love and be in touch with yourself.
