C22-18 Dreama and Bob “Gilligan” Denver & Autism

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Dreama Denver, on air from May 3rd

Dreama Denver: is the wife of late classic TV icon Bob “Gilligan” Denver and the award-winning author of ‘Gilligan’s Dreams’ who has single-handedly carried on her husband’s legacy since his passing. The Denver Foundation is a non-profit foundation started by Bob and Dreama in honor of their severely autistic son, Colin. They understood firsthand in an up-close-and-personal way exactly what families face when presented with the challenge of caring for a family member with special needs. Today, the Denver Foundation assists special needs individuals in West Virginia. Under Dreama’s tutelage, its mission has expanded to include West Virginia’s Always Free Honor Flight, which recognizes the sacrifices of our veterans with free trips to Washington, DC, to see the memorials built to honor their service.

Actress, writer, radio station owner, and personality Dreama Denver met her husband of almost 30 years, television icon Bob Denver (Gilligan of Gilligan’s Island, Maynard G. Krebs of Dobie Gillis), when she was cast as his love interest in the Woody Allen play, “Play It Again, Sam”. After marrying the popular television personality, Dreama continued her acting career, appearing in a Gilligan’s Island reunion movie with Bob, co-starring with him in a TV pilot titled “Scamps” and touring the U.S. and Canada successfully and happily with her husband for over a decade.

The birth of Denver’s son Colin, diagnosed with severe autism, changed everything for Bob and Dreama, who retired from show business and moved back to West Virginia to devote the next two decades to Colin’s full-time care. During this time, the pair also founded The Denver Foundation, which honors their son and is dedicated to assisting special needs children and their families.

“The Denver Foundation and Little Buddy Radio, a nonprofit radio station owned and operated by the Foundation, were Bob’s last and most important legacies,” Dreama says, “and making these two entities as successful as possible became my mission after Bob passed away. His desire to give back to West Virginia was huge. He loved this area, considered himself an adopted West Virginian and was a tireless ambassador for the state. Regardless of how important and far-reaching his television legacy was, and is, his love for our son and his desire to help other families like ours trumped even that.”

Since Bob’s death in 2005, Dreama has discovered new passions and new directions in which to take the foundation. Founding Always Free Honor Flight, WV’s first Honor Flight program, honoring WV veterans with free trips to Washington, DC to visit the memorials built to honor their service is especially close to Dreama’s heart, as is the Denver Foundation’s Always Free Walk of Honor, installed and dedicated as a poignant addition to the War Memorial and Museum in Princeton.

22-16 The Hot & Cold of Life

April 18, 2022April 17, 2022Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life, with Sara Troy, on air from April 19th

Just like the weather, we all have hot and cold days. As winter turns into spring, we are experiencing snow one day, the blazing sun the next, and that is nature in transition and rebalancing herself. This is a metaphor for our lives, we can have great days and then ext not so much, but that does not stop us from living life.

Life can be a Roller-costor or a Ferris wheel, fast and furious on a journey of self-discovery, it is our choice. When we choose to slow down and be engaged in the moments, taking one step at a time finding our balance, and focusing on the now, we discover just how in control we can be of our life. Going fast can be an avoidance of dealing with life’s hot and cold days, and can prevent us from slowing down enough to be in the now, learning what we are really capable of.

There is a time for leaps, a time to jump blind deaf, and dumb in order to see hear and feel, and a time on being intuned in the moment of stillness and of concentrating on the now. Sometimes that leap is not in the jump, but in the choice to be present and take the one step at a time approach to life.

May the force be with you……….

22-14 Sara’s 10 Years of Podcasting

April 4, 2022April 4, 2022Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from April 5th

If you told me back in April of 2012 that I would be podcasting for 10 years and growing, I would have laughed at you, but here we are, it is 10 years of podcast hosting with 9 years in June of my own network.

One never knows where our path will lead us, but if we are willing to walk it, we do discover why it is leading us that way and what it is all about. It truly has been an extraordinary journey for me, one of personal growth, self discovery, enlightenment, and humility, and I love where it has led me to now.

You can not hear the stories of such struggles, such abuse, such neglect, such venerability, and not be affected by those who CHOSE to walk away from the anguish that was imposed upon them and to embrace their own self-discovery. Their courage discovered, their strength revealed, abilities shown and love of self embraced, it truly is the most illuminating thing one can hear and be a part of, for it shows us just how abundant, enriched, and flawsome we really are and what we are capable of if we try.

I am exceedingly proud of the trust that people have put in me in sharing their stories, and in how not only have they referred me, but come back again to continue to inspire and invite us all to rise up to our own awesomeness. To you all, I thank you, for without your honesty, trust, and venerability, we would not be able to inspire so many in choosing to walk into their own personal growth of abundance.

We are so much more capable than we know, so much stronger, resilient and courageous, if only we choose to step away from fear and past conditioning, and decide to walk forward to a more meaningful fulfilling, and enriching life.

With approximately 2700 shows under my belt, and with so many more to come, I am going for the next ten years to bring you more of the divine exuberant, and empowering people that you would ever want to know. Remember this, whatever notoriety they may have in their lives now, they also had to walk the path of self-discovery and pick from the Orchard of Wisdom to allow themselves to grow and become the illuminating people that they are today. It is in all of us, we just need to decide to walk away from outdated patterns and beliefs and embrace our true essence and divine ability that is our journey in life.

HERE IS TO THE NEXT 10 YEARS

“Do not close your eyes and ears if you are not a parent, for the deepest parenting journey is of self.” (Sally Saint) Sally Saint is a UK-based therapist, energy healer, artist, and the founder of Conscious Parenting, serving as a support worker for families whose children have learning difficulties and behavioural challenges.
Sally’s life has taken her down many paths and has seen her walk through challenging terrain, but it was the creation and birth of her son Edward, that gave her the key to unlocking the door of transformation in a deep and profound way. The qualification, the spiritual work, the books she read, all slotted into place when her journey of motherhood began to unfold. Now, with her passion and expertise, she connects with others across the planet, to offer the wisdom she has unlocked on her own epic journey.
Sally has over 16 years of experience in working with energy to facilitate healing for clients around the world, being a trained Reiki practitioner, reflexologist, and massage therapist, having a natural ability to read the energy of another (in person or via distance), then to actively work with the person’s energy to release any blockages and facilitate expansion. Her artwork, a constant friend and companion since childhood, is another example of how she is able to directly connect with her clients in a very deep and meaningful way to facilitate healing and release.
Sally’s purpose is to hold the space for those parents who are navigating their own healing and parenting journeys so they can remain in direct contact with their hearts. She has absolute faith in the transformation of self, from societal-led to heart-led lives.
After working at her child’s school, an independent, Montessori-inspired school, which has a rehabilitation unit attached to it (the only one of its kind in the UK), Sally was able to see how the lives of children were turned around. She believes that children can shift from their trauma to become fully happy and vibrant beings when given the right tools.

15/49 Christmas gift buying and the real gift of Christmas

December 4, 2015December 7, 2023Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Saras View of Life with Sara Troy airs from December 8th

Peace Joy Love and Kindness to our Global Community this Christmas.

063f29d2cfe56f140b44678da4024752 Am I getting old? Are manners thing of the past? Are the words like “Thank you and Please” gone forever? The word courtesy is not even in the modern day dictionary. Is anyone teaching our children to use these words? When someone takes the time to say a simple thank you, it makes you feel more valued, that whatever you did for this person was appreciated.

Do any of you remember Carol Kings song “you’ve got to get every morning with a smile of you face and show the world all the love in your heart…” Don’t you feel different when someone greats you with a smile? When there is some positive energy about you don’t you feel inspired? A simple smile a courtesy, a please and thank you goes a long way to making our day a more pleasant one.

e692d41b6b99077db621cda0037ce995 We are in the big busy Christmas season, where every one and their dog are out shopping. It is crowded and noisy and you can’t find anything that you want to buy. Frustration grows, your are a reasonable person but this lineup is way to long, and the sales clerk is no help and you can’t find that perfect gift and every one is in a hurry AAAARRRRGGGGG

Courtesy goes out the window. It is like a domino effect. When one person is in a bad mood it affects everyone else, the vibe around you are oppressing, and suddenly you can’t stand to shop any more.

Here are some tips to help you through this hectic season.

1: Do not leave it all to the last moment, plan at least 2-3 trips to different stores and allow yourself the time to look around before just buying.

2: Do as much research as you possibly can, like looking in flyers, magazines, T.V ads, go on line, get some ideas of what you want before you go.

3: Even ask the person that you are buying for, to give you a list of items that they want, and choose something from that.

4: Try not to go at the weekends, dinnertime is good (if your stores are open late during this season) because everyone else is eating. You can have a tranquil dinner later knowing that your shopping is out of the way. Always allow for a coffee/tea/booze break so as to replenish yourself.

5: If you have no idea what to buy your teenager niece or nephew or sons and daughters get them certificates, they love to shop after Christmas when the sales are on (but for your own kids also get a little gift that is personal like jewellery, tickets to a concert something that shows them that you made an effort, that means you care). As for the younger ones, ask their mum, failing that books, movies, music and colouring stuff are always good. Babies, educational toys for the age of the child are always a good idea. DON’T FORGET THE PETS TOO.

6: Wives, do not get her something for the house, if you buy for the house give to the house, for your wife it must always be something that makes her feel loved and valued. Jewellery, night gowns (get the size right) a beautiful romantic scarf, a Spa date, weekend with friends, tickets to a fabulous dinner and show, music or books that she really likes. Remember you live with this woman, give her a gift that says that you love her and know her, or you will pay the price later. All a women wants is to know that you have made the effort.

7. Husbands, is it sports, tools, new tech? they love it all, but again something very intimate that shows him it is specially for him from you telling him he is loved.
8. For your mums/dads, it is the same thing; it is not the big price tag the means so much, but the thought and effort that you put into it. Family movie, Photo album, and evening out or trip away, music or movie a new book. Get the kids to make them something that is a gift for everyone.

9: Ladies, your man wants to know how you feel about him too, so buy something practical because he will value the practical side of you, but also something sexy and a little off the wall so he knows that you still want to have fun.

10: In-laws are difficult to buy for, so play it safe, unless you know them well. Buy something Christmassy like a Christmas cake, bottle of good wine/brandy/champagne. Chocolates are great to give if they like the brand. Christmas decoration for the tree is good, so that they can remember you every year.Again a family video of the year, photos and a dinner certificate, Calendars also, they can have one in each room. Take heed of religious convictions and never buy anything that can offend.

11: Now when you give them their gifts and you hear, “ You should not have” always say, “ Of course I should, you are worth it.” And when receiving a gift, even if you don’t like it, always say, “thank you for the effort that you put into this gift, I feel very special”

12. Remember your neighbour, the senior on their own, the single family struggling, homemade gifts, like cakes jams art, calendars etc are wonderful especially when they come from the children and given with love and pride. Make a package from all the neighbours to these people so they know they are not alone and someone cares.

SET AN EXAMPLE AND GIVE A FAMILY GIFT TO SOMEONE IN NEED, THE GIFT OF GIVING. Give a gift of a Wheel Chair freewheelchairmission.org/donate and change someones life for the better.

No home unsure future, help out a Refugee and bring the meaning of loving humanity into the forfront. http://e-activist.com/ea-action/action/Canada give them some hope.

America. Refugees http://www.alexiafoundation.org/stories/new-roots-refugees-resettling-in-america give them some hope.

Homeless. Gift certificates for the closest grocery store, or restaurant, a package of socks, gloves, scarves, hats, toiletries, goodies, give them to them directly of if you know of a church or place where they feed them and they can hand them out. A note that you care will fill their hearts.

COURTESY it is one of our biggest assets, it cost nothing, but it goes a long way, and is always appreciated. So when someone this year has taken the time to make an effort to do something for you, feel appreciative, and acknowledge the time and energy that it took to such a thing, and be grateful that you are the recipient. If you cannot reciprocate in material things at least reciprocate in time and effort. Time is very valuable and this will always be appreciated.

REMEMBER THE HOMELESS, LONELY, FORGOTTEN, PETS, GIVE A GIFT OF LOVE, FOOD, CLOTHING, TREATS, CANDY, TIME AND RESPECT.
