C26-24. Troy Frostad is Choosing Life in the Face of Cancer.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Troy Frostad. On air from June 16th

My story is about emotional resilience when life changes without warning and pressure becomes deeply personal.  As a former Executive Vice President, I understood responsibility, leadership and high stakes decisions.  Being diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer forced me to learn resilience at a much deeper level.  I had to fight for my life while still choosing how I would live, love, lead and respond to the people depending on me.  That experience became the foundation of my life’s work:  helping leaders and people in difficult seasons stay grounded when fear is loud, protect their decision making under pressure and keep moving forward with courage and purpose.  The message to pass is this:  you may not be able to control what happens to you, but you can build the resilience to face it with clarity, strength and a life that is still fully lived.

I am originally from Kettle Falls, Washington, and my leadership journey began in the United States Air Force, where I served for six years, including combat roles during Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm. After the military, I spent much of my career in executive leadership, building teams, coaching leaders, and learning how to lead through pressure, change, and responsibility. Today, my work with Pinnacle Leadership brings together 37 years of leadership experience, my cancer journey, my faith, and my passion for helping people grow. Behind the profession, I am a husband to Kim, a father to Taylor, a man of faith, a cancer survivor, and someone who believes leadership is not just what you do; it is who you become when life tests you.

C23-28. Michelle Harwood, Gratitude for my Cancer

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Michelle Harwood Lange, on air from July 11th

Facing the diagnosis of cancer was like being hit by a freight train. The world as I knew it came to a screeching halt. But as I navigated through the fear, the pain, and the uncertainty, I discovered something profound. I discovered myself. Cancer, as strange as it may sound, became a gift. It stripped away the superficial layers of my life and forced me to confront my own mortality. It was in this confrontation that I found a deep, unshakeable love for myself. I began to appreciate my body, not for its appearance or its abilities, but for its resilience, its strength, and its will to survive. I found purpose in my journey. I realized that I am here to live, to experience, to grow, and to contribute. I am here to share my story, to inspire others, and to make a difference in whatever way I can. I am here to honor my existence and to live my truth. Through the trials and tribulations, I discovered my resilience. I found strength in places I didn’t know existed. I learned to lean into the discomfort, to embrace the uncertainty, and to keep moving forward, no matter how hard it got. Today, I live in honor of who I am and what I am here to do. I am not just a cancer survivor; I am a warrior, a beacon of hope, a testament to the human spirit’s indomitable strength. I am a living, breathing example of the transformative power of self-love and acceptance. Cancer did not break me; it made me. It brought me to a place of profound self-love, meaningful purpose, and acceptance of my very being. And for that, I am eternally grateful.

Can our devastations be opportunities for great transformation? Moments of devastation will visit everyone in life. Whether it is grief, illness, loss, or some other trauma, no one escapes. In Celine’s case, one of those moments was her diagnosis with breast cancer in 2016. As you join Celine on her journey from getting this life-changing news, to surrendering and ultimately choosing a path of transformation, you are prompted to reflect on your own life and how your personal traumas have shaped you into the person you are today. You will discover that every crisis is an opportunity to evolve and that despite the inevitable pain that comes with growth, life really is happening for you, not to you. It is always unfolding for your highest good. Packed full of practical tips and insights, this book is a reminder that you are not just a helpless victim of life. You are a powerful creator and life is actually trying to help you grow into the fullest version of you. I started writing after breast cancer in 2016 and Gifts from the Devastation is my second book. I secured a publishing contract with John Hunt Publishing in the UK after self-publishing my first book in 2019.

C22-16. Caprice Hogg, Art, Books and Teaching

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Caprice Hogg, on air from April 19th

Caprice first picked up her paintbrush in 1994 and quickly discovered a hidden talent. She studied with artists Karen Hersey, Keith Smith and Shane Garton and soon found herself in a world of colourful oils, shapes and art techniques. Her insatiable thirst for knowledge of art has become an obsession as Caprice eagerly reads each and every art book she can get her hands on. In 1998, Caprice’s first solo exhibition gave her the confidence and courage to pursue painting as a full-time career. She works and exhibits her paintings from her Studio Gallery located in Kimberley, British Columbia, Canada. Caprice’s works are now in private and corporate collections in Western and Eastern Canada, the United States, Europe, and New Zealand.

After painting full-time for many years, it was a natural progression for Caprice to start teaching art. Passing on the knowledge that was passed on to her is certainly an important part of her career. Whenever the opportunity arises, Caprice travels to not only see new landscapes but also to art galleries and museums in Canada and abroad. Looking at art illuminates and inspires. She then calls upon the powers of her imagination to portray on canvas the beauty and majesty of the mountains and forests that surround her. Her vibrant colours and bold strokes reflect her strong connection to mother nature.

Caprice is one of Cloud Lake Literary’s contributing reviewers. She is responsible for book reviews as well as the occasional author interview. Find her work under Impressions.

YH22-08 Dr. John Poothullil is Challenging Health Dogma….

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

…and Exposing Medical Myths.

Your Health is your choice with Sara Troy and her guest Dr John Poothullil, on air from January 18th

Dr. John Poothullil Empowers Patients with New Scientific Insights and Complementary Approaches to Prevent Obesity, Reverse Diabetes, and Survive Cancer

John Poothullill practiced medicine as a pediatrician and allergist for more than 30 years, with 27 of those years in the state of Texas. He received his medical degree from the University of Kerala, India in 1968, after which he did two years of medical residency in Washington, DC and Phoenix, AZ, and two years of fellowship, one in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and the other in Ontario, Canada. He began his practice in 1974 and retired in 2008. He holds certifications from the American Board of Pediatrics, The American Board of Allergy & Immunology, and the Canadian Board of Pediatrics.

During his medical practice, John became interested in understanding the causes of and interconnections between hunger, satiation, and weight gain. His interest turned into a passion and a multi-decade personal study and research project that led him to read many medical journal articles, medical textbooks, and other scholarly works in biology, biochemistry, physiology, endocrinology, and cellular metabolic functions. This eventually guided Dr. Poothullil to investigate the theory of insulin resistance as it relates to diabetes. Recognizing that this theory was illogical, he spent a few years rethinking the biology behind high blood sugar and finally developed the fatty acid burn switch as the real cause of diabetes. Recently his own cancer diagnosis lead him to research cancer and childhood cancer.
