22-23 Self Discovery is Celebrating 9 years

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from June 7th

It is hard for me to believe that I have had my own Podcast network for 9 years now. I had no idea of what I was doing when I first started out, and over the years I have created my own style in interviewing, show postings, and platforms to view and hear on. It has been quite an adventure and one I still love doing.

I have hoped to be further ahead with certain things, like my Orchard of Wisdom site and the Fund-Action program and the second book; but life has a way of either redirecting you and slowing you down, and some of those goals have not been met yet, but I do hope soon.

When I first started out I had Bill who edited my audios for me and put them up on SoundCloud, and when I ran into issues, he would help, but as of around early 2016 I was on my own and had to learn fast. Now I do all the editing, audio files, video, show postings, graphics, sharing and etc and I do my very best to give my podcast guest and representation that serves all their info and show.

I want to do more, but simple for one person there is no more time, each show is about a 5 hour production and I do anything from 4-8 shows a week, that is before the sharing. I have also created 3 more platforms. Mentorships where coaches can share their skills and program’s that serve you the audience. Practitioners, those who offer hands on programs, and Supporting the Supporters, where we support the organizations who are doing exemplary work in supporting others.

We already have on E-Book, but I hope by years end to have a collaborative book on our Forgotten Children series out too. Hopefully by the time this goes live, my new site will be up Orchard Of Wisdom where all our programs will be laid out will be up. It all depends on chiseling through some tech issues of which is not my strength.

So as I go into this new year of exploration and continue to bring you the most awesome liberating and illuminating people to inspire you, guide you and empower you, join me and help us get there even faster. I do all my shows via donation, some people are very generous, some not. We are on Patreon where you can support the SHOWS, the POD-BOOKS, the FUND-ACTION program, we ask humbly for your support so we can continue to bring these shows and the Pod-Books and much more. You can give a one time donation on the blue donate button, of go to Patreon and support us there on any or all our programs, every drop fuels the productivity.

You are not just donating, you are building up hope and solutions for those in need.

SS22-23. Michael Solomon, Fur-Ever Supporter


Supporting the Supporters with Sara Troy and her guest Michael Solomon, on air from June 7th

Along with a long strategic career in both the Air Force and Law Enforcement spanning over almost 15 years, Michael is perfect for helping our Vets and other survivors feel both safe and protected. He offers tips on safety and how to be aware of your surroundings. Michael can also assist you in what to expect when and if you have to appear in court (however he cannot provide any legal advice). Michael is very easy-going, patient, laid back and trustworthy. He has been there to assist his wife in her recovery from being a domestic violence victim to a thriving survivor. When he is not working, he loves to spend time with his wife, Victoria and their three kids. Michael also enjoys fishing, hunting, woodworking, as well as paying it forward in assisting special needs families being that he and Victoria also have a daughter who has special needs. President and Security Advisor.

Giving is not just about making a donation. It is about making a difference.

We are currently in the process of building a kennel system so that we can begin breeding our beautiful golden retriever support dogs. We have been doing all of this plus everything you see on our website out of our own pockets. When we do charge for say some of the classes, we do it for what we pay for the materials. Here soon we will have to take on the expenses of more vet bills, dog food, and so much more. Michael knows first hand how impactful a dog can be, being a Vet who has his own P.S.T.D. he used to wake up with shadows coming through the walls cause him to go for his gun, now with a dog sleeping with him, he no longer has those nightmares.

A dog can sense the pain, anguish, the anxiety the health needs and the fear and more, and with their undying love, they are there for us in a way like no one else can be, so support Michael with his program to get dogs to those in need so they can help those with life challenges navigate life more easily.

TM22-23 JoAnn Erwin’s “Behind these Walls”

Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest JoAnn Erwin, on air from June 7th

JoAnn Ewin was an exemplary nurse working at Little Sandy Correctional, but one day she said no to a date with the warden and her life was sent upside down. Today nearly 8 years later she is still fighting for her wrongful dismissal and the justification of being blacklisted and persecuted.

Former Prison Nurse tells all in her memoir.
Sexual harassment, lies, and court cases that seem to never be brought to a closure.
Elliott County, Kentucky, 2022 JoAnn Erwin has released her first book, a memoir about her time as a prison nurse, for preorder. Her ongoing court case, because of her wrongful termination, is continually delayed. While waiting for the judge to make a final ruling, JoAnn is ready to tell her story to the public. Preorder will be available till June 30, 2022, when the eBook will be available for purchase. A paperback edition is planned to be released after June 30, 2022, as well.

Will justice prevail or will she be caught in the big man’s cluTS20-20 Sexual harassment and wrongful dismissal accountability of sweeping it all under the rug? She shares her story with us and prays that justice will prevail in June at her next court hearing.

JoAnn set out to write her memoir to bring awareness to the corruption in the prison and court systems in the state of Kentucky. Her experiences are not exclusive to just her own story but have happened to others. What started as a hostile work environment where favoritism and sexual innuendos were prevalent turned into a wrongful termination when JoAnn refused to have a drink with the warden. After daring to stand up for the rights of inmates to receive doctor ordered medical care provisions and refusing the warden’s proposition for a date, JoAnn found herself declared a security risk. She was also blocked from holding any nursing position at any of Kentucky’s state prisons. Now, after several years of court, her case is still unresolved.

Sexual harassment, lies, cover-ups, mistreatment of staff and inmates. These wrongs have happened at one time or other in the thirteen Kentucky state prison facilities. Every attempt is made to keep things that happen behind these walls quiet. The public does not know what goes on in a state prison. I have experienced all the above and more during my employment at Little Sandy Correctional Complex. I am Jodie Erwin, and this is my experience as a prison nurse.
This memoir includes firsthand experiences inside of a Kentucky state prison. A must read for those considering going into the field of prison nursing. This memoir gives insight into nursing inside of a prison and the challenges that arise from being a caregiver for prisoners. With the constant pressure to both give adequate medical care and to do what is in the prison’s inner circles’ best interests, this book exposes the brokenness of the system and those who are in charge. Even working inside a prison
for a short time has emotional, mental, and physical consequences. With the added pressure of unchecked sexism and harassment, this memoir reveals the darker side of this type of work. Behind These Walls will be available for purchase in both eBook and paperback editions

JoAnn (Jodie) Erwin was born in Olive Hill, Kentucky. She is the oldest of six children. She worked as a factory worker in Morehead, Kentucky till she lost her job in 2002.
Seeking a more stable career she returned to college to pursue a nursing degree. Jodie was forty-seven years old when she went to nursing school. In December 2005, Jodie graduated from the LPN program and went to work at a nursing home. It was 2012 when she took a position at a prison and her life was set on its current course. She would face some of the darkest and most difficult times of her life. Turning to writing Jodie has started a journey of healing by sharing her memories of being a prison LPN with her readers.

YH22-22. Dr. Ernst von Schwarz, The Secret World of Stem Cell Therapy.

Your Health is your choice with Sara Troy and her guest Dr Ernst von Schwarz, on air from May 31st

World-renowned cardiologist and stem cell research pioneer, Dr. Ernst von Schwarz, author of the new book, The Secret World of Stem Cell Therapy: What YOU Need to Know About the Health, Beauty, and Anti-Aging Breakthrough

Stem cell therapy is considered to be the most important discovery in modern medicine, likely bigger than the discovery of penicillin or the detection of the tuberculous bacteria.” 

In our current healthcare system, physicians perform reactive medicine, which means diagnostic testing and pharmaceutical therapy is aimed at improving symptoms that occur secondary to damage or loss of function. Regenerative medicine, on the other hand, aims to repair damaged tissue and restore functionality by recruiting the body’s self-healing properties. With our aging bodies, we do lose the regenerative power of stem cells. Stem cell therapy has the ability to partially induce regeneration of acutely injured or chronically damaged tissues. In fact, most clinical studies testing stem cell therapy for different conditions have shown beneficial results with very little adverse events (unlike the pharmaceutical therapies). However, stem cell therapy outside the frame of ongoing clinical trials is not FDA-approved and is considered experimental. 

In this interview, Dr. Ernst von Schwarz can talk about:

  • The “squaring the circle” challenge: The dilemma of modern stem cell therapy that is the problem of translating reliable basic research into daily clinical practice without business-driven delays by regulatory agencies or avoiding companies and providers who sell false promises to patients for thousands of dollars for the cure of diseases without knowing the risks and potential outcomes.
  • The process of approvals, costs, why this therapy is not FDA approved: The lack of understanding behind the scientific breakthroughs.
  • The Relationship Between Aging and Anti-Aging Medicine: The causes of cellular aging, reactive medicine today and sick care versus health care 
  • The Secret World of Stem Cells: Examining these power engines that are a resource for life, growth, and repair in living creatures. Stem cells have the ability to generate and replace cells with unlimited replication.
  • Heart/vascular & sexual problems and stem cell therapy solutions
  • His Personal Doubts: The experts, the experiments, the standard of therapies, his basic research and the KISS technique

LM22-22.The Drummer Loves Ballads, John Armato.

for the LOVE of Music with Sara Troy and her guest John Armato, on air May 31st.

The Drummer Loves Ballads is the debut album of John Armato. Featuring extraordinary music, musicians and moods, it was produced and engineered by some of the industry’s top talent. The album was designed to be a new soundtrack for lazy Sunday afternoons, romantic evenings, and melancholy midnights, but you’ll swear it’s a long-lost jazz favorite.

Featuring more than 25 musicians, including the legends Houston Person and Warren Vaché, The Drummer Loves Ballads is a story more than 40 years in the making. From intimate quartet settings to sweeping orchestral arrangements, it is as rewarding to listen to closely as it is relaxing to listen to casually.

From Christmas toy drums to first lessons, from his first professional gig to a tour of Russia, drums have been John Armato’s constant companion. He has played clubs and concerts from New York City to Napa Valley and was a member of the trio behind Lisa Henry, a winner of the prestigious Thelonious Monk Institute Vocal Jazz Competition. 

While the beat and burst of high-energy drums captured his attention early on, it was the swish and sizzle of ballads that captured his heart. It was always about the beauty, not just the bang. (As a kid, after seeing Buddy Rich repeatedly on the “Tonight Show with Johnny Carson,” Armato asked his parents for an album by the drum legend for his birthday, but “one with a whole band playing, not just a bunch of drum solos.”) 

Forty years ago, Armato played one of his first jam sessions. That’s where the story of The Drummer Loves Ballads — and the album itself — begins. 

A Kansas City native, New York City ex-pat, and now a Sacramento resident, Armato appears on the CDs “Claudette,” by Sacramento vocalist Claudette Stone and “Comfort” by Texas praise singer Lisa Bloecher. The Drummer Loves Ballads is his first release as leader.
