Laura Davis is a fee-only, certified financial planner. Her new book, was inspired by her years of working with clients to help them gain clarity and confidence around their money.

8 years ago Laura became a financial advisor. Prior to that she had a brief stint as a recruiter, and before that she was a real estate agent and sold foreclosures during the great recession. It was during that time that she started to become really interested in personal finance. She saw how flawed financial decisions resulted in people losing their homes and their incomes. This inspired her to help people do better with their money and create better outcomes.

I will use everything I’ve learned over my career as a journalist and educator to assist and encourage even the most hesitant writer toward completing their project. I’ve edited business books, children’s books, young adult fantasy, and poetry. I can help solidify your ideas, create a blueprint for your project, work through content and flow issues, provide advice on continuity and character, and book editing.

I love problem-solving. I am talking about that moment where the author has an unresolved issue with their piece. It is so satisfying to uncover new possibilities in the work that allow the author to feel their true voice and intention can shine through.

The key is listening. I listen deeply to my authors to feel what they intend to convey.

Your work may be closer than you imagine to becoming publication-ready. Email me and start the conversation to make your dreams of authorship a reality donnaknutson@ymail.com

BB23-30. Gayle Nowak Creating Soul-Aligned Visibility.


Building Your Business with Sara Troy and her guest Gayle Nowak, on air July 25th

Gayle specializes in marketing strategy, brand storytelling, public speaking, workshops, video, podcasting, expert positioning and public relations, by Creating Soul-Aligned Visibility.  

As a child Gayle learned to make herself invisible in order to feel safe. Despite that, her ability to touch audiences emerged when her 4H and youth group leaders consistently asked her to lead performances, deliver testimony and speak from the heart.   Her adult journey to heal her childhood trauma and visibility wounds has led her to create direct, yet tender spaces for audiences and clients committed to being authentically seen, heard and felt for the work that wants to come through them.   Healers, coaches and New Earth leaders use empathic gifts to naturally see people with the eyes of their heart. Yet, many have also had their desire to be seen and heard ignored. As a result, it’s common to share your story, message and magic from your wounding rather than the way you are naturally designed to be visible. When you create soul-aligned visibility you feel free and empowered to share your message, magic and medicine with the world.

  Imagine a world full of healthy, loving people who are no longer afraid to live and lead as their true self. That’s the vision that inspires and motivates today’s guest, Gayle Nowak, in guiding healers, coaches and New Earth leaders to break through silencing influences that stand in the way of their truest expression. She is the creator of Sage Sensation™ Retreats and founder of the award-winning marketing agency The Story Stylist. She’s passionate about creating transformational experiences that help healers, lightworkers and conscious leaders speak up, claim space and share their magic as they carry out their mission to create the New Earth.

23-29. Venting Frustration.


Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from July 18th

Can you sense my frustration and disappointment, and is it completely understandable? I have been nurturing this dream of creating a book for “Our Forgotten Children” for years, and it’s a noble cause. I have extended invitations to people I’ve interviewed, offering them a chance to participate for free and even promising that the proceeds will go to their charities. Yet, the silence from their end is disheartening. It’s natural to question their lack of response. Are they not interested in the book, the work involved, or is it something to do with me? These doubts can indeed shake one’s confidence and make one question the viability of the dream. I’ve got a publisher lined up, but I need the authors to produce the content. They had expressed interest initially, but now their silence is deafening.

Yes, I’m venting. Yes, I’m confused. And yes, I’m disappointed. But does this mean the end of the book? Or is it just another detour on this journey? Sometimes, it’s necessary to take a step back, reassess the situation, redirect our efforts, or even re-invite potential participants. It’s not easy, but it’s part of the process.

Indeed, we all encounter roadblocks in various aspects of our lives, be it work or daily routines. These challenges often prompt us to question our actions and decisions. Am I doing this right? Should I even be doing this at all? For me, the book is the right path, but I’m left wondering if I’ve invited the right people. Wearing all the hats can be overwhelming, especially when you’re passionate about the cause. This project is a fundraiser for organizations that serve our children, and while I can’t afford to pay anyone, I wish I could find someone who shares this passion and would love to embark on this journey with me. I have a publisher lined up, and to cover her costs, I’ll be organizing a fundraiser. It’s a lot to manage, but I believe in the cause and the impact this book can have.

So it leaves me with the option to invite different people to embark on this journey, both as the author and someone who wishes to help me by wearing a hat that is wobblily on my heard, yet fits them perfectly.

I will take a few days to ponder, and then, reach out to some new people working with children and see where it goes. Thats is what we have to do, right! pivot how ever frustrating it can be, go with the flow.

TSM23.29. Allison Ockenden’s DNA Jewellery and Keepsakes.


On September 18th 2015, I had the biggest life changing event happen to me and my family to date. I lost not only my best friend and fiancé, the man my children saw as Dad, I lost my future. I was forced to not only say goodbye to the man I loved but to be the one to give the official words to turn off the life support machines keeping him alive.


Once I discovered DNA jewellery and keepsakes I knew this was my purpose in life. To ensure no other families have the same regret of not having something to hold onto after losing someone taken too early. While we focus on loss we also celebrate the good times too.

Every aspect of my business is in memory and honour of Manny, I launched TTA on the anniversary of his passing to celebrate him and how even in his passing, he is supporting our family and is a part of our lives daily. The name coming from a saying he’d repeat over and over that it’s how long  he’d love me and until he took his last breath, he kept that promise and now I live everyday keeping up my end.

Unlike many other DNA artisans, I ensure I cater for all moments in life, turning all of life’s memories into keepsakes you can hold, I do tend to be more drawn to loss, especially the loss of loved ones because that’s why I started my business.

At the time of Manny’s passing I had no idea this industry existed, my goal now is to never hear another person say “I wish I knew you existed when….” And only hear “thank god I knew” to help families during all stages of life.
