Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Zachary Bonaventure Smith. On air from May 20th
My “why” comes from nearly 20 years of deep learning, personal growth, and navigating the highs and lows of both life and business. I now feel ready—and called—to share parts of my story. What I offer is my awareness, my inner compass guiding me to the next best choice, and the wisdom that comes only through lived experience. I believe in the power of sharing, not as answers, but as reminders—that in our own lives, the journey never really ends. The hardships, the detours, the moments that shake us—they’re not obstacles to avoid, but experiences to be lived through and learned from.
Trusting yourself is the path to personal growth and authentically expressing your unique gifts. If you have a point of view, you owe it to yourself to follow through and live in congruence. Narratives are constantly swirling around, and it’s a test to avoid wasting your time and energy following them. We all have an internal compass that, if ignored, choice after choice, year after year, eventually this world will start to feel and ultimately become overwhelming. I have learned how to navigate by making lots of mistakes but also by testing how important trusting our own light is, even in the face of one of the most challenging and complicated industries aligned and steady actions, step by step can lead you up the mountain…where you realize there is yet another mountain and another mountain. Understanding where you find yourself in the process and ultimately having a LOT of patience is a critical and timeless skill to fall back on.

When I’m not thinking about making travel easier and more transformative for everyone, I’m usually wrangling my two little kids to finish their food, pick up their messes, and to spend more time coloring! My wife and I love being parents and the challenges of keeping our kids IRL as much as possible. Travel is in the DNA of our relationship, as we met on a JetBlue flight from Seattle to New York. As we like to say, it’s been one really long date ever since!
Born in Eugene, Oregon, I was raised by idealist parents who, after growing up in Chicago, embraced the back-to-the-land movement of the ’70s. My parents are still together, and I have two younger brothers.
After graduating from college, I embarked on a one-way journey to Oaxaca, Mexico, which sparked a transformative adventure through Central America. Along the way, a series of serendipitous encounters drew me into the world of tourism, and, remarkably, I ended up launching a business with the very first person I shared my vision with.
