23-42. Is it Asking too MUCH?


Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from October 16th


I’ve always strived to bring awareness and wisdom to my audience in any way I can. Recently, I took some time away in the UK to be with my older siblings who have been facing significant health challenges. It had been four long years since our last meeting, and it was a much-needed reunion.

However, this hiatus had its consequences. I’ve fallen behind in the fundraising efforts for “Our Forgotten Children’s” book project, and it’s currently far from reaching the required amount for publication. We have a wonderful team of 12 authors plus me, who’ve generously shared their expertise and wisdom on improving the lives of our children. They’ve dedicated their time to sharing this invaluable knowledge.

I am committed to ensuring that these authors don’t bear the financial burden of this project, as it’s also intended to be a fundraiser for their chosen organizations supporting children’s causes. Each author will allocate their portion of the proceeds to their respective organizations, furthering the vital work they do for our children. Your support is greatly appreciated in making this vision a reality.

Are we asking too much of you the listener, the reader, the supporter? While the world is indeed facing its share of brutal conflicts and widespread poverty, endeavors like “Our Forgotten Children” are crucial because they contribute to showing a brighter future is possible. Stories and awareness like these serve as a beacon of hope and catalysts for changes so desperately needed in our children’s lives.

By addressing the way we raise our children, focusing on education, societal values, mental health support, self-value, and self-esteem, we can empower the next generation to find their purpose and place in the world. This, in turn, can reduce the cycle of discontent and anger that often leads to senseless violence and conflicts. It’s about building a world where such wars become increasingly rare, and where compassion, understanding, and peace prevail. Every effort counts in shaping this better future.


I wholeheartedly support the idea of turning “Our Forgotten Children” into a series that brings more authors and perspectives on this crucial subject. It’s a vital step toward deepening our understanding of the issues at hand and finding effective solutions. Our author’s initiative to shed light on what’s going wrong and how we can make positive changes is commendable.

However, your support is essential to making this endeavor a reality. Without the backing of individuals like you who believe in the importance of this cause, we cannot bring this book and its valuable insights to the forefront. Together, we can make a difference and contribute to a more compassionate and informed world.

YH23-39. Dee Lippingwell and Your Liver Care


Your Health is Your Choice with Sara Troy and her guest Dee Lippingwell, on air from September 25th

The Real Truth is there are over 100 known causes of liver disease that affect everyone from infants to seniors. One in 10 people will suffer from it. Liver disease is not just with Rock and Roll stars, but anyone can have it. Have you had the blood test that can save your life? Do not delay, it could be life or death.

The liver is an organ about the size of a football. It sits just under your rib cage on the right side of your abdomen. The liver is essential for digesting food and ridding your body of toxic substances.


Liver disease can be inherited (genetic). Liver problems can also be caused by a variety of factors that damage the liver, such as viruses, alcohol use and obesity.

Over time, conditions that damage the liver can lead to scarring (cirrhosis), which can lead to liver failure, a life-threatening condition. But early treatment may give the liver time to heal.

Many people have only heard of Cirrhosis which is often considered to be a form of liver disease. Cirrhosis is not a form of liver disease, it is a condition that results from permanent damage or scarring of the liver. It is the end stage of many different forms of liver disease and is known to cause a number of other health problems. You can learn more about Cirrhosis at HealthLinkBC

Some of the most frequent liver diseases are usually caused by one of these factors:
Viral hepatitis (Hepatitis A, B and C)Obesity (fatty liver disease) Alcohol Genetics Autoimmune disorders of the liver Drugs and toxins Cancer

Liver disease doesn’t always cause noticeable signs and symptoms. If signs and symptoms of liver disease do occur, they may include:

  • Skin and eyes that appear yellowish (jaundice)
  • Abdominal pain and swelling
  • Swelling in the legs and ankles
  • Itchy skin
  • Dark urine color
  • Pale stool color
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Loss of appetite
  • Tendency to bruise easily

The Happy Liver Society of BC is a non-profit society focused on providing housing to support patients and their families from all over British Columbia as they need to travel to Vancouver General Hospital for a life-saving Liver Transplant.  Liver transplant patients must stay in Vancouver for up to three months following their transplant for post-transplant care as an out-patient.

The Happy Liver Society opened Stacey House in September 2008 — a “home away from home” for post-operative liver transplant patients. It is located one block away from Vancouver General Hospital. Stacey House is a one-bedroom apartment that will sleep up to four people. The Happy Liver Society of BC provides for the rent and utilities of this suite.

The Happy Liver Society is raising funds to support Stacey House and to promote awareness of liver disease to the greater public. We promote immunization for Hepatitis A and B, testing of all people for Hepatitis C, and early screening and detection of liver disease in general.

TO HEAR DEE’S SHOWS ON BEING CANADAS ROCK AND ROLL PHOTOGRAPHER GO HERE


In 2022 Dee’s collection of thousands of photographs was accepted into the National Music Centre – Studio Bell – in Calgary, Alberta, where a special section will be dedicated to her vast collection of photographs for all to see.
Although Dee’s work has been published all over the world since the start of her career she is definitely proud of the fact that she was a featured photographer in the best-selling “Expo Celebration Book” published in 1986. Her photographs were also a main feature of another best-selling book by Greg Potter and Red Robinson – “Backstage Vancouver”, published in 2004. She was also a substantial contributor to the “100 Years of Fun – The PNE Story”, released in 2011. Most recently Dee was part of the “Live at the Commodore” historical rendition by Aaron Chapman.
In 1987 Dee published her first book of photographs called “The Best Seat In The House”… a title since used by major companies to promote their own products! This book was a collection of her best photos of rock and roll royalty to that date. She started her own publishing company (No Flash Publishing) and compiled photos and stories for her second book, “First three Sons…No Flash!” which not only highlights the famous performers that she’s shot but also deals with the behind-the-scenes, sometimes amusing, stories associated with her concert photos…it seems that everyone wants to know what it’s like backstage with the Rolling Stones!
In 2021 Dee published “Memories From The Mountain”, a photographic essay depicting the 17 years (1993-2009) that she was the head photographer for the Merritt Mountain Music Festival. This was a Limited Edition printing and sold out quickly so another book was published featuring all the artists that performed over the year.

Just a sample of some of the greats Dee has captured over the years.


These books, a gallery of Limited Edition photos that she has for sale, find all her goodies here. Signed Books T-shirts. Tote-bags Scarves

 SDM23-39. Brandi Van is a Medium Mentor.


Self-Discovery Mediums with Sara Troy and her guest Brandi Van, on air from September 26th

I’m a Spiritual Medium and Psychic Development Mentor.  I really want to help people who know they have psychic abilities but are afraid to talk to other people about them, who don’t have control over them and want to be mentored, and to create more light workers in this world.  Part of their journey inside my program is self-discovery because they need to do a lot of self-introspection, inner child healing work, etc because the more they can heal and the better they know themselves, the more their abilities will be able to grow.  At the start of my journey, it was very hard to find a mentor and there’s no class to take so I felt very alone and I want to make sure other people don’t feel that way and that I’m here to help them if they need my help!

When I was very young, I was seeing and hearing Spirits but I didn’t know what they wanted or who their messages were for so I did my best to ignore them.  Until one day I had an experience that I wasn’t able to ignore anymore.  My grandma had passed away and my family and I were around her in the hospice room as she took her last breath.  As she did, I felt her spirit rise above the bed and saw an amazing sight, full of brilliant colours that formed a star and beat in and out like a heartbeat.  I felt at that moment that she was at peace and that she was moving on to the Spirit world with her angels and her deceased family members, who were welcoming her to join them.  My view of death changed in that moment because I knew she was at peace.  And that’s what started my Spiritual Journey, but it took me several years because there were no classes or anyone to turn to, and it took me years to find a mentor.  Once I worked with her, my abilities skyrocketed.  So, I want to be that person for others now.  Letting them know they are not alone and they have a mentor who’s easy to find and who will be there with them every step of the way.  

Brandi Van is a Spiritual Medium and Psychic Development Mentor who helps highly sensitive people discover their unique psychic gifts so they can experience an abundance of peace and find their Higher Purpose. Through coaching and speaking, Brandi helps people discover and develop their psychic abilities to realize we are all connected here on Earth and that we all have a higher meaning than ourselves. Brandi has made it her mission to help others to discover their abilities so they can fulfill their higher purpose, live with intention in their interactions, and listen to their intuition. She truly believes this is why she is here on earth; to help people who are feeling lost with their abilities and who need a mentor to show them the path to go on. “Developing your psychic abilities really needs to be experienced, not thought about or theorized.”  
Brandi felt very alone and lost when she was receiving messages from Spirit but wasn’t sure who they were for or what they meant.  And she didn’t want to share it with others in fear that people would think she was crazy or making it up.  She wants people to know they are not crazy, they are not alone, and that she’s here to help if they need a mentor to develop and control their ability.

TSM23-39. Collin Jennifer Ruiz, Injustice Served


Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Collin Jennifer Ruiz, on air from September 25th

Collin was sent to jail for a two year sentence in place of her brother whom they could not find. The injustice of it all is enough to cripple anyone, but what she learned while in jail, changed everything about her self and instead of serving nutritional foods, she served nutrition for the soul.

The topic of my book is how I changed my perspective of prison, and how that changed my experience. We often find ourselves feeling trapped, stuck, or imprisoned. I hope that my journey empowers/inspires others to find their freedom. 

My Why is for people to experience freedom in the face of the limitations and constraints life throws at them. In my book I share how I discovered my own freedom inside a Federal prison. I had a therapist who challenged me to reframe my time in prison as if I were living in a monastery. That shift in perspective made all the difference in my experience of those two years.
