Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from March 28th
Guilty pleasures we should not feel guilty about. I had a wonderful weekend celebrating Grandsons Birthday, son-in law and daughter in law as births, plus a baby shower for my daughter.
BUT, I also sat on a comfy seat out in the sun reading my brothers new book, and finished in one day as I like to read. We has gone for a walk, they played a game and I put my feet up and read a book. Heavily.
We need to do something un work related and do something for ourselves. NO GUILT, just do, something special just for you. It rejuvenated you, inspires you and allows you to shut of from outside expectations, and just be doing what you love to do.

An Authors Kiss with Sara Troy and her guest Abigail Child, on air from March 21st
Legendary Experimental & Documentary Filmmaker Abigail Child Receives Career Retrospective at NYC’s Anthology Film Archives .
At times playful and at others intensely provocative, the cinema of Abigail Child has been a cornerstone of the American avant-garde film movement since the late 1970s. Poet, visual artist and filmmaker Abigail Child has absorbed the best of mentors like Jonas Mekas, experimental icons like Marie Menken, Len Lye & Arthur Lipsett, and has been a trailblazer for LGBTQIA+ artists alongside fellow game-changers like Barbara Hammer and Yvonne Rainer.
The work is emotionally probing, intellectually challenging, and visually arresting. Every image is a masterful flourish filled with power, and each sounds an alarm, a call to arms for each of us to march forward in our own personal journey.
A destroyer of boundaries and builder of bridges, the work traverses the finest experimental cinema and the very best of the documentary form.
These fantastic works have been lovingly curated in a long overdue career retrospective for Abigail Child, presented at New York’s Anthology Film Archives from March 24th to the 28th, 2023.
Abigail Childhas been at the forefront of experimental writing and media since the 1980s, having completed more than thirty film/video works & installations and written six books. An acknowledged pioneer in montage, Child addresses the interplay between sound and image to make, in the words of LA Weekly: “brilliant, exciting work…a vibrant political filmmaking that’s attentive to form.”

Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Marleen Karen, on air from March 21st
Maureen had a stroke which interrupted her career, but what she learnt from it and how it has helped her become a better mentor, is profound. She helps women of colour, find their own way forward into living a life of choice, care, community, and communication, so they are living their best life.
We empower BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Colour) professional women who are stuck on the corporate ladder to move forward in their career.
?are you a professional female who’s sick and tired of only “staying in your lane” when you KNOW that you were meant for more?
?is the excuse of HR hiring another candidate who was the right fit when you not only have all the requirements, but EXCEED them as well?
?is being overlooked, ignored and only being given menial tasks no longer your cup of tea?
?are you exhausted from having those same old headaches and pain of constantly overworking in your position, but not being valued or appreciated for your labour?
Ever since leaving high school, I have always been either the only or one of 2 or 3 Black female students in the classroom. However, I did not let that disparity prevent me from excelling and proving myself and my worth. By continually progressing due to being denied advancement on the educational and professional front, I quickly realized that I was an example of a dichotomous division in those circles. Also, I became acutely aware of limitations that I, as a Black female, would have to face since there’s a huge lack of representation which hinders my ability to take part in innovative and inclusive practices.
