23-39. Sara’s Back in the UK

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Traveling back home to see your sister and brother can be a powerful journey through time and memory, filled with a mix of nostalgia and complexity. It’s remarkable how our earliest roots and experiences continue to hold a special place in our hearts, no matter how far and wide we may have traveled.

  1. Childhood Memories: Returning to your childhood home can flood your mind with vivid memories of the past. The sights, sounds, and smells of the place where you grew up can transport you back to a simpler time. You may find yourself reminiscing about the adventures, joys, and even the challenges of your youth.
  2. Familiarity and Foreignness: The paradox of feeling both familiar and foreign is common when revisiting your roots. While the place and people may be familiar, you’ve undoubtedly changed over the years. The environment might feel different, and you may need time to readjust to the place that was once so integral to your life.
  3. Longing for Home: There’s a saying that “home is where the heart is,” and it’s evident in your experience. Even though you left the UK in 1969, those initial roots continue to call to you. Home, in many ways, remains a part of your identity, no matter where you’ve lived or how long you’ve been away.
  4. Flashbacks of a Life Lived: Each corner of your hometown likely holds memories of experiences, people, and events that have shaped you. Visiting these places can trigger vivid flashbacks, allowing you to relive moments from your past and reflect on the person you’ve become as a result of those experiences.
  5. Childhood’s End: Returning to your childhood home can also serve as a reminder of the passage of time. Childhood, once so vivid and immediate, now exists in the realm of memory. It’s a bittersweet realization that highlights the inevitability of change and growth.
  6. Connection to Roots: Your journey back to the UK underscores the enduring connection you have to your roots. It’s a testament to the enduring power of place and family in shaping who we are. These connections can ground us, providing a sense of continuity and belonging in an ever-changing world.

In revisiting your past, you have the opportunity to reconnect with the essence of who you are and to appreciate the journey you’ve taken. While the feelings of familiarity and foreignness may coexist, the beauty of such journeys lies in the depth of reflection and the rekindling of bonds with loved ones who share your history. It’s a reminder that our roots, no matter how distant in time or place, remain an integral part of our identity and continue to shape our present and future.

23-37. Balancing all the Balls

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara Troy on Sara’s View of Life, on air from September 12th

“It’s a funny thing about life. We send our wishes, hopes, and dreams out into the vastness, almost like throwing a message in a bottle into the ocean, hoping that the universe will answer. We meticulously chart out our paths, believing we’ve accounted for every twist and turn. We anticipate a rhythm, expecting milestones to unveil themselves one at a time. But here’s the catch: the universe has its own rhythm, its own mysterious cadence that doesn’t always align with our carefully laid plans.

And now, here I am. I waited, I hoped, and sometimes even doubted. But just when I least expected it, the universe delivered. It didn’t hand me one answer; it showered me with all of them, all at once. It’s like waiting for a bus on a cold winter’s day for what feels like hours, and then three show up simultaneously. It’s overwhelming, thrilling, and a tad bit intimidating.

So, the challenge I face isn’t about the waiting anymore. It’s about juggling these blessings, these opportunities that have suddenly been thrust upon me. I find myself in the thick of it all, doing a delicate balancing act, ensuring that not a single ball drops. It’s a reminder that life’s gifts don’t always come in expected packages or on our timeline. Sometimes, it’s a flood when we were bracing for a drizzle. But amidst the chaos, there’s a lesson, a hidden blessing, teaching us agility, resilience, and the power of embracing the unexpected.”

“Oh, the whirlwind of life! Just as I’m finalizing my memories and moments for my memoir, a labor of love that has traveled with me through time, I’m also nurturing the seeds of ‘Our Forgotten Children.’ book series, which is so close to my heart, it not only demands creative energy but also the challenge of fundraising to produce the anthology. Our children’s need need to be protected and we must change in the way we raise and invest in our children. Yet, there’s more. With two TV platforms beckoning, the spotlight and the screens are waiting, each requiring its own set of preparations, energy, and vision. And amidst all this beautiful chaos, I’m packing my bags for a month-long escape to see family ( and finish editing books). The universe sure has a quirky sense of timing! But here’s the deal: I’m ready. One page, one child’s story, one screen, and one day at a time.”

23-35. As Summer Ends

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from August 29th

As the last warm rays of summer start to mellow, they cast long shadows, heralding the approach of autumn. It’s always a bit melancholic when summer draws to an end, but fall, with its russet hues and crisp air, brings its own sense of purpose. It reminds me of turning pages in a book, which is apt because I’m about to dive deep into two significant writing projects.

The first is deeply personal – My Life’s Reflections. Penning down a lifetime of experiences, choices, moments of joy and sorrow is no small feat. It requires introspection, vulnerability, and sheer honesty. I need to encapsulate all that I’ve felt, seen, and done. While it’s daunting, I also believe it’s going to be therapeutic, allowing me to see patterns, learnings, and maybe even offer others some insights from my journey.

Then there’s the ‘Our Forgotten Children’ anthology. This is not merely a project; it embodies a movement. It’s a collection of tales from individuals who have actively worked with children, shedding light on the pressing need to transform the surroundings we nurture our children in. Each chapter is a testament—a voice, a story, an appeal, even an anthem of hope. These narratives highlight the inherent flaws in our systems and emphasize actionable ways to reform them, ensuring the well-being of both parents and children. By strengthening their bonds and fortifying their spirits, we can hope for a brighter future. Having Krystal Hille Publishing on board for the editing instills a sense of calm within me. Their esteemed reputation and meticulous approach guarantee that every tale will be treated with utmost respect and refinement. Yet, the road ahead is long – there’s the challenge of raising funds, streamlining coordination, and overseeing production. And the clock is ticking, with only four weeks at my disposal, to get all the chapters over to Krystal and raise that money to produce it.

The urgency isn’t just about the change in season; it’s also personal. The UK is calling me back. Family ties, with near death experiences with aging siblings, the need to see them is strong, as it has been 4 years since. The pandemic has been a formidable barrier, keeping me oceans apart from loved ones. This upcoming trip is about reconnection, healing, and maybe even finding some semblance of direction for the future in hand. But before that, the tasks at hand loom large. The next four weeks are going to be intense, filled with late-night writing sessions, brainstorming, and possibly copious amounts of coffee. But there’s a intense excitement too. The kind you feel when you’re on the brink of something profound. As the leaves turn golden and begin to fall, I’m reminded of the impermanence of it all and the importance of making every moment count.

Let the next chapter begin.

23-33. Our Tone of Voice

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

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

I recall a particular show from a decade ago, which, interestingly enough, still resonates strongly with audiences today. The central theme of this production revolved around the concept of tone and its profound impact on our interactions with others. It explored how the manner in which we deliver our words sets the stage for how we are perceived and received by those around us.

Imagine this: you have a message to convey, an idea to share, or a point to make. Now, consider the importance of employing the right tone to accompany your words. It acts as an inviting ambassador, encouraging others to lend an ear and truly listen to what you have to say. On the other hand, a misguided or inappropriate tone can unintentionally create barriers, hindering effective communication and dampening engagement.

By consciously setting the tone, we shape the narrative of our communication. It is an art that requires thoughtful consideration and skillful execution. How we choose to articulate our thoughts and deliver our messages greatly influences how others perceive and interpret them. It can be the difference between genuine connection and misunderstanding.

So, I encourage you to reflect upon the power of tone in your own communication endeavors. Ask yourself, “What tone would best convey my intentions? How can I create an inviting atmosphere that encourages others to actively listen and engage with my ideas?”

Remember, it’s not just about the content of our words; it’s about how we express them. When we master the art of setting a positive, welcoming tone, we open the doors to meaningful conversations and build stronger connections with those around us.

Let this related insight guide your future interactions: “Set the tone you wish to be listened to.” By embodying this principle, you’ll find that your messages resonate more profoundly and that others are more receptive to what you have to say. So, choose your words carefully, but remember that the tone in which you deliver them is equally vital.

May you embark on this journey of intentional communication and discover the immense impact a well-crafted tone can have on the world around you.

23-30. What is your Core saying

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from July 25th

Life is unpredictable and despite our best efforts, things often don’t go as planned. It’s important to remember that it’s okay when things don’t go according to plan. It’s a part of life and often, these unexpected turns lead us to new opportunities and experiences we wouldn’t have had otherwise. It’s also crucial to not overload ourselves with expectations and responsibilities. It’s okay to take a step back, reassess, and give ourselves the space and time we need.

Remember, it’s not about how fast we reach our destination, but the journey we take to get there. It’s okay to take detours, to rest, and to change our path if needed. And most importantly, it’s okay to ask for help when we need it. We don’t have to do everything on our own. We’re all human and we all need support from time to time. So, don’t be too hard on yourself when things don’t go as planned. It’s all a part of the journey.

Patience is indeed a virtue. It’s important to understand that everything has its own time and pace. Sometimes, things might not work out immediately or as quickly as we’d like, but that doesn’t mean they never will. Taking a step back and giving the situation some time can provide a fresh perspective and can often lead to better outcomes. It’s also crucial to be patient with ourselves. We’re all works in progress and it’s okay to not have everything figured out all at once.

Remember, life isn’t a race. It’s more like a marathon. It’s about endurance, patience, and resilience. It’s about enjoying the journey, learning from our experiences, and growing along the way. So, take a deep breath, be patient, and trust that things will fall into place when the time is right.
