Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy on air from July 15th
?? Welcome to the Conscious Rebellionwith Sara Troy
We are standing at a crossroads in human history—not just politically, but spiritually, emotionally, and consciously. This is a time of choice. A time of reckoning. A time to rise with soul-led intention.
This is not just rebellion, it is a conscious rebellion. A revolution of the awakened. We are no longer asleep to the pain of others, blind to injustice, or silent in the face of cruelty. We have been shaken. And now we must awaken. Not with fists in the air, but with our hearts wide open and our spirits grounded in truth.
No matter who you are or where you come from, ask yourself: Do I lead with compassion? Do I stand for kindness? Do I seek understanding? Because it starts with self-love—real, honest, grounded self-love. When we love ourselves, we cannot stand by and watch others be dehumanized, dictated to, or destroyed.
We don’t need more hate. We don’t need more violence. We need more self-love This isn’t about politics, it’s about people. It’s about holding those in power accountable, not with rage, but with a radiant resolve. Not with pitchforks, but with purpose.
There are systems built on greed, division, and fear, and yes, they’re trying to pull us back into darkness. But we, the conscious, the aware, the soulful, are the light they cannot dim.
We rise through community, through truth, through love in action. We hold the line for justice. We lift those who are being trampled. We show up, not because we are told to, but because we know we must.
Let us no longer turn a blind eye, for the moment we ignore another’s suffering is the moment we give away our power. You don’t have to save the world alone; just help one person rise. And if each of us does that, the ripple becomes a wave. A conscious wave. A soulful uprising. A global remembrance of what it means to be human.
So find your place, whether you’re the harmony or the melody, the drumbeat or the stillness between the notes, this orchestra of awakening needs you. Speak. Share. Support. Stand.
Let us rise together with compassion as our rebellion, and love as our revolution. The time is now. The moment is yours.
This is the Conscious Rebellion. Let’s lead it with soul.

Our Global Veterans with Sara Troy and her guest David Brown, on air from July 1st
Awarded Medals By Queen Elizabeth II For His 40 Years In The British Army, A Retired Major Pens A Powerful War Novel Set In 1970s Northern Ireland
David Brown, a lifelong military man for the British Army, who received medals from Queen Elizabeth II for his bravery throughout a successful four-decade military career, has not had to fire a shot in many years. But all of the bloody battles fought in his lifetime live in his head, heart, and soul. He brings to life what it really felt like to fight the enemy, even when winning felt like losing. “There’s a heavy price to pay for peace on all sides of a conflict,” says Brown.
Brown has three novels out, each inspired by his military experiences that began for him at the tender age of 15. He left a household in poverty and dropped out of school to become a soldier. From 1969 to 1976, he witnessed and participated in fighting for Great Britain against the IRA uprising (or freedom fighters?) in Northern Ireland.
At just 15, he left home to join the British Army, driven by a deep sense of duty and a desire for purposes beyond the life he knew. Over a remarkable 40-year military career, he fought in numerous battles across the globe, witnessing both the chaos and camaraderie that only war can forge. His service was recognized by Queen Elizabeth II herself, who awarded him medals that now serve as quiet reminders of sacrifice and honor. The brutal reality of war left a lasting impression, compelling him to write three novels—fictionalized accounts drawn from the truth of his battlefield experiences. He speaks candidly about the visceral intensity of hand-to-hand combat, and the haunting paradox of feeling a deep, private respect for the very enemy he was trained to destroy. After retiring from the military, life shifted once again when he faced the profound loss of his wife to kidney failure. It was this heartbreak that prompted him to start anew, redefining purpose in a life now lived beyond the battlefield.
“Some may label me a killer, and they’d be right,” says Brown. Others would say I was a hero, and they would be right. But there will always be mixed feelings in reflecting back on a soldier’s scorecard. We can pray for peace and forgiveness – all while pulling the trigger to remove a life from this world — and the soldier must feel he did what had to be done while still questioning why he was there at all.”
David Brown has authored three novels, all military fiction inspired by decades of military service for England. His books are The Wolves of the Radfan, Hard Rain, and The Darkness. He served in the British Army for 40 years, dropping out of school to join the military at the age of 15. He left The St. George’s School in Cambridge and the impoverished neighbourhood dubbed The Kite. His household was so poor that he wore his sister’s hand-me-downs, his home lacked heating and hot water, and the bathroom was located outside of the gas-lit house. Brown was awarded a BEM (British Empire Medal military division) and the MBE (Member of the British Empire medal military division) from Queen Elizabeth II. Between 1969 and 1976, he spent a good deal of time in Northern Ireland, serving with a top infantry regiment as both a platoon sergeant and later as a platoon commander. Brown left the infantry for the elite Army Physical Training Corp and received a commission, eventually reaching the rank of Major. He has traveled the world, living in over a dozen countries spanning four continents, including Hong Kong, Kenya, Germany, Canada, Yemen, Morocco, Libya, Gibraltar, Norway, Cyprus, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and numerous parts of England. After leaving the military, he became a professional mountaineering instructor in Spain. He has climbed the Himalaya Mountains, the Andes Mountains, the European Alps, and other great heights. Brown’s first wife died of kidney failure, but he found his faith in God again and remarried. Now 78 years old, he is retired and plays golf and produces a quarterly magazine called The Rock, for The Costa Blanca Anglican Chaplaincy.

Our Global Veterans with Sara Troy and her guest Dr Josh McConkey, on air from July 1st
It is critical to highlight a growing crisis that’s often underreported and often ignored: the decline of strong, engaged fatherhood, and its impact on the future of our nation.
Dr. Josh McConkey, candidate for Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina, combat veteran, emergency physician, author, and dad of three kids, argues that restoring fatherhood is essential to reverse rising youth anxiety, fractured families, and weakened communities. His new book, ‘Be the Weight Behind the Spear, calls on men to re-embrace their role as present, purposeful fathers and leaders, both at home and in society.
Dr. McConkey brings a unique, boots-on-the-ground perspective. With experience leading soldiers in war zones and caring for patients on the front lines, Dr. McConkey is uniquely suited to provide a perspective on resilience and leadership. He’s seen what happens when young people lack guidance, and the impact when military dads come home from the battlefield to raise kids with discipline, resilience, and heart. He believes America’s healing starts with men who lead their families with strength, honor, and emotional presence. “Fatherhood is not optional — it’s foundational,” believes Dr. McConkey.
Be the Weight Behind the Spear is more than a book—it’s a mission to restore character, courage, and conviction in today’s fathers, sons, and mentors.
Military dads have a unique perspective on leadership that extends far beyond the battlefield. Their experiences teach us valuable lessons about leading with integrity, purpose, and calm under pressure — qualities that are just as vital at home as they are in combat. Communities can play a powerful role in supporting and inspiring men to show up with courage and compassion, creating spaces where vulnerability and strength walk hand in hand. By embracing practical steps to rekindle the American spirit of fatherhood — from active presence to emotional resilience — we strengthen not just our families, but the very fabric of our nation. There is a deep and undeniable link between fatherhood and national resilience; when fathers are empowered, connected, and engaged, the ripple effect is felt across generations. The battlefield may be far away, but the mission at home is just as vital, and the lessons learned in the service can guide us all toward stronger, more loving families.
Dr. McConkey’s credentials include:
Commander, 459th Aeromedical Staging Squadron at Andrews Air Force Base
Combat flight surgeon with 340+ flight hours (90 in combat zones)
Author of the award-winning book “Be the Weight Behind the Spear,” recently nominated for a Pulitzer Prize
Founder of The Weight Behind the Spear Foundation
Recently announced candidate for Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Pat Alva-Kraker, on air from July 1st.
When I was diagnosed with breast cancer a second time, it hit me hard. I lost my energy almost overnight and started asking some big questions. Will I have the strength to keep living the life I love? How do I stay relevant in my business and in my own story? That wake-up call became the start of something powerful. I chose to live differently, diving into practices that helped me heal, feel strong again, and age with purpose. That journey led to my signature class, The Blueprint to Sustaining Relevancy, Vitality, and Longevity. I’m sharing this because I know I’m not the only woman asking these questions. And this isn’t just about bouncing back, it’s about rising even higher.
I spent years climbing the corporate ladder at IBM and Lockheed Martin, leading teams and pushing for results, but life had other plans. After surviving breast cancer twice, I realized it was time to stop living on autopilot and start living on purpose. That experience cracked me open and set me on a path of deep healing and reinvention. Today, I’m all about helping women, especially those in midlife, reclaim their energy, vitality, and sense of relevance. I blend what I’ve learned from the corporate world with what I now know about biohacking, energy healing, creative expression, and mindful leadership. Whether we’re in a coaching session, a retreat, or creating with clay, I guide women to step into their next chapter feeling strong, clear, and fully alive. And when I’m not doing that, I’m off exploring the world or playing a lively game of Pickleball with my husband, Mitch.
