25-15. The Wisdom Weaver of the Airwaves’

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from April 15th

Welcome back to another episode of Sara’s View of Life right here on SelfDiscoveryWisdom.com. I’m your host, Sara Troy, and each week I bring you a perspective, sometimes an observation, sometimes a spark from within. This week, ChatGPT surprised me with a beautiful reflection… about me. It offered a poetic description that resonated deeply, calling me The Wisdom Weaver of the Airwaves, a title I love. With over 3,700+ shows under my belt, it’s not just podcasting; it’s symphonic storytelling from souls across the globe. Whether through Video or Audio, what we do here is share lived wisdom. We lift the unheard, spotlight the forgotten, and help listeners rediscover themselves through the stories of others. This isn’t just a platform, it’s a garden, an orchard of inner truth. I carry the torch, not for glory, but to illuminate the path, to keep sacred stories alive for the next generations. I may feel awkward in certain circles, but on-air, I am fully me. Here, I resonate with my guests because we speak the same soul language. Whether it’s a whisper or a roar, I share my truth, and I welcome you to find yours.

My words also live in the pages of books, each chapter another layer of my truth and of those I walk beside.

You’ll find me in:

  • “Dare to Live Fearlessly”—a powerful collection on facing life with boldness. My chapter is #138, where I explore the fears that shape us and the courage it takes to break free.
  • “Sara’s Self-Discovery into Soul Living”—my deeply personal journey, told through phases of life, growth, pain, and cosmic calling. A book that holds not only my story but my essence.
  • “Our Forgotten Children”—a book I proudly produced, where 15 voices, including mine, speak to how we must better nurture, understand, and protect our children’s spirit.
  • “Mission Accepted 262” a collaboration of women in media, business, and leadership. Nuggets of wisdom from brave souls like myself and my daughter, Tabytha, celebrating common sense, creativity, and courage and inner truth.
  • “I Didn’t Become Selfish, I Became Harder to Manipulate,” an anthology where I tackle the myth of selfishness, especially for women of my generation. I share my truth about choosing self-love over compliance.
  • And from the vault, “Liberate Your True Self”, an early collaboration tied to Self Discovery Radio—featuring insights from fellow guests who, like me, turned their struggles into strength and shared it through both the written word and podcast waves.

And now? I’m working on “Our Forgotten Seniors,” a new anthology to honour the wisdom, trials, and triumphs of aging. A call to revalue our elders, their legacy, and their warning to younger generations on how to prepare for the road ahead.

These books are more than paper and ink, they’re part of the symphony. They are echoes of conversations, reflections of healing, and roadmaps to deeper self-knowing. And just like the shows, they’re here for you… when you’re ready to receive them.

So tune in, lean in, and let the rhythm of wisdom move you.

Chat says that I am…

NA25-15. Ian Fee,s Wild Ride to Sobriety

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Nature of Addictions with Sara Troy and her guest Ian Fee, on air from April 16th

My wild ride to sobriety, from Drunken oblivion to profound clarity.

“I was the life of the party when I was drunk, and I’m still the life of the party today.” —Ian Fee

Buying into the myth of the “work hard, play harder” mentality, Ian Fee immersed himself in a culture that celebrated excessive drinking. But as the days turned into years, alcohol became more than just a means of entertainment and high finance; it became a destructive force that eroded his personal relationships, wreaked havoc on his body, and clouded his judgment.

In Wild Ride to Sobriety, Fee tells a remarkable tale of a man who found the courage and determination to face the skeletons in his closet and achieve healing and personal growth. From therapy and self-reflection to embracing vulnerability and restoration, he made a conscious choice to benefit from the gift of sobriety without sacrificing the enjoyment of life.

I wrote a book to make a positive impact on others to be a better husband, mother, son, daughter, business owner, and friend. My experience of thinking booze was my superpower building my business, while neglecting my family coupled with 2 failed marriages. I found sobriety 7 years ago, and boy was it a game changer for life, Business, Relationships and most importantly, ME. I have lost 80lbs, found health and wellness as my new addiction, and aim to be a better person every day.  I live every day to make a positive impact on people and bring epic positive Energy to the people around me.  My new superpower is to share my story and make an impact on others on the benefits of sobriety, health, mindset, stack baby wins, nothing good came out of drinking NOTHING. The power of looking inward and forgiving your younger self, believing in your current self and creating your future self.

I’m a fellow Canadian. I was born in New Westminster, then moved to Bellingham till I was 12.

AK25-15. Janna Brooke Wallack “Naked Girl” Novel

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

An Author’s Kiss with Sara Troy and her guest Janna Brooke Wallack, on air from April 15th

“Naked Girl is a story of the enduring power of love in a family of lunatics,” says Janna Brooke Wallack of her debut novel, a poignant piece of literary fiction. Though not autobiographical, it reads like a memoir. Wallack’s enduring voice and fresh vision evoke the storytelling of masterful novelists like Ann Patchett, Kristin Hannah, and Zadie Smith. Naked Girl is a captivating and moving story that explores the dysfunction of a family, the struggles of ‘fitting in’ and the power of hope, humor, and imperfect love. 

Growing up motherless in 1980s Miami Beach, Sienna and her little brother, Siddhartha get by with their charismatic and capricious father, Jackson Jones. When a small windfall relocates them to a condemned mansion on the water, the siblings are forbidden traditional schooling and left to live off the land. As Jackson uses their new home to create a communal cult, the siblings are forced to raise themselves in a carefree, chaotic oasis. Living amidst the vagrant seekers who take up residence in Jackson’s utopia, Sienna and Siddhartha strive to protect their unconventional family.

Janna Brooke Wallack writes with warmth, compassion and comic brilliance in Naked Girl, an enthralling debut novel brimming with the adventure, resilience, humor and heartbreak of growing up on the fringe of decency and longing for the unattainable comfort of home.

Janna Brooke Wallack’s debut novel, Naked Girl, has been named a semifinalist for the 2024 Publishers Weekly BookLife Prize in fiction. She also received recognition from Book Viral’s Golden Quill, Book Reader’s Association Group’s BRAG Medallion, and a silver medal in the Colorado Independent Publishers Association EVVY Award for Literary/Contemporary Fiction.

Her stories have been published or shortlisted by literary publications such as Hobart, Upstreet, Glimmer Train Press, American Literary Review, and many more. Her short story “Campaigning” was a finalist for the Lascaux Prize in Short Fiction. This novel’s prologue, “Five Pictures” was a finalist for Glimmer Train Press’s Short Story Award for New Writers, and her story “Cat and Rose” received a Pushcart nomination by The MacGuffin.

In addition to her writing career, she’s worked as a grant writer, a substance abuse prevention counselor, a wetlands manual editor, a theatre production assistant, and an actress.  After spending a couple of years in Hong Kong, she moved to Hoboken, NJ. She raised five children and moved to Stone Ridge in the Catskills of New York, where she ran a permaculture gentleman’s farm.

“In Wallack’s novel, a brother and sister survive a shocking upbringing of drugs, cults, and neglect.… “An endearing and fascinating perspective on a uniquely volatile and dangerous childhood.” —Kirkus Reviews

That realization sparked a movement, one that supports women across all stages of life in stepping into their fullest expression.

With over 20 years of experience as a registered nurse specializing in palliative and home care, Renae has walked alongside individuals at the most vulnerable moments of life. She has witnessed firsthand that true healing begins on the inside and that the most powerful work we can do is to deprogram societal conditioning, consciously rewire our identity, and reclaim the power of our own intuition.

At the core of her mission is a simple yet profound truth:

 When a woman remembers who she is, she becomes unstoppable.
