25-45. Changes are Happening

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

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

When my guest didn’t show, I turned the mic on anyway to share what’s stirring: the tide is turning. After months of turmoil and fear, people are waking up, pushing back, and choosing accountability over chaos. I riff on Who Moved My Cheese?—Some cling to what was, others sniff, scurry, pivot, and create. That’s the invitation now: breathe, step out of the hurricane, find calm in nature, listen to soul and heart, then act with a clear mind. Courage lives in vulnerability; from there we build real equality, not win-lose scraps. I celebrate the rising wave of commonsense leadership—so often women rolling up sleeves—focused on survival and shared thriving. Stop pointing fingers; own your vote, your voice, your daily choices. Support solutions already in motion, from environmental accountability to citizen-driven checks and balances. Be part of the change you can participate in, not the promises you wait for. Make or find new “cheese,” share it widely, and leave the chronic blamers to their own lessons. The tide has turned because we’ve turned—toward calm, conscientious, collaboration, and the courage to build a future that feeds us all.

25-44. Just Push Through

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from November 4th

Right here on SelfDiscoveryWisdom.com — well, it’s flu season, isn’t it? Everyone seems to have a cold, and yes, I’m just getting over one myself. My shows lately have been a bit on the “stuffed-up” side, but life goes on. You take what you need to take, and on we go with the show. That’s what life is about, getting on with it. Still, we have to remember the importance of rest: to recoup, review, and renew ourselves. Unfortunately, rest hasn’t been much of an option for me lately; there’s simply too much happening. I’ve had to push through, stealing little moments of pause where I can.

Sometimes we just need to say, “You know what? Postpone.” Give ourselves permission to nurture, to chicken-soup our souls back to health. Whether it’s physical, emotional, or spiritual, we need time to heal and regroup. Despite my best oregano defenses, I caught this cold from my adorable grandchildren — my little petri dishes who bring home every germ from daycare. Add to that a few sleepless nights helping with the arrival of the new baby, and well, my immune system waved a little white flag.

So here I am, balancing between pushing through and pulling back. I’m heading off for a few days soon to see family, friends, laughter, and no shows, a change that will serve as rest in its own way. Between shows, interviews, and upcoming public talks, I’m booked through November and already scheduling January. Finding balance becomes a dance: listening to when to rest, when to push, and when to simply breathe.

I’ve learned that life doesn’t stop for a cold or a throbbing toe. You do what you can, take what you need, and get on with it. Still, I’ve also learned to slow down — not to a full stop, because that’s harder to recover from, but enough to stay steady. Sometimes that means rearranging, rescheduling, and letting go of what isn’t urgent. It’s flu season; people get sick, shows get postponed, and that’s okay. We just adjust, lighten up, and keep flowing. Flow is life — whether it’s energy, breath, or purpose, and when it’s blocked, we feel it everywhere. So, I listen. I breathe. I heal. And I keep moving forward, maybe a little slower, but always with gratitude, resilience, and a hot toddy in hand.

25-42. The Waiting Game

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from October 21st

The waiting game is a tender teacher. We can’t rush a bloom; we seed with intention, water with care, and trust the universe for timing. I’m living that trust now—phone beside me, heart on tenterhooks—waiting for my 3rd grandson to arrive. That same rhythm guides my work: I used to sprint like the hare, chasing visions faster than steps could hold. Now I’m a wiser plodder, listening, connecting, planting what matters and letting growth be earned. The journey, not the finish line, is where the meaning lives. I interview those who lead with heart, who turn knowingness into service, because why we do a thing is the root of everything it becomes.

Real abundance isn’t in the noise of “six figures”; it’s in the quiet change we spark in one life, then another. When soul-wisdom downloads, it stirs the heart, and the spirit carries it to the mind to shape with clarity. We watch for the signs, pivot when paths get rocky, and choose companions, human and divine, who steady our steps. Some dreams, like Our Forgotten Children’s book, take years to ripen; others arrive as invitations to speak, write, and share. Either way, we move by core truth: listen, learn, apply. Let go of old expectations, return to your essence, and let that inner compass lead. I’m 71, grateful, healing, wholeness, and still planting. And just as a new child is about to draw first breath, we, too, can give birth to ourselves again, rooted, ready, and quietly radiant for what’s next.

25-41. Thanks for the Wishes

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from October 14th

Well, I’ve just come off a wonderful Monday–Tuesday weekend that really began on Sunday. My daughter came over from the mainland to Vancouver Island, where we both live, and we shared a lovely evening together. I made vegan bobotie—a Malaysian-inspired South African dish—and we savored every bite. The next day, my son and his wife arrived, and we surprised my daughter with an impromptu baby shower. Her dear friend joined us, and we pampered her with a face mask, a hand and foot massage, and even I got a foot massage, since it was my birthday! The evening flowed into laughter, feasting, and the simple joy of being together.

The following day, my daughter and friend headed home while the rest of us took the little ones to the park. Later, we enjoyed another delicious meal and gathered around a campfire, watching my two-and-a-half-year-old grandson delight in the flames. It was the perfect ending to a birthday weekend filled with love, warmth, and gratitude. We celebrated my birthday on October 6th, my daughter’s baby shower—she’s due any day now—and my son’s upcoming birthday at the end of the month. We even tried to squeeze in Thanksgiving!

Moments like these remind me that the greatest gift of all is family. Though my children live busy lives—one in Vancouver, one in Maple Ridge, and one here on the island—it was such a gift to have everyone under one roof. My son cooked up a storm: lasagna, shepherd’s pie, a hearty mushroom soup, and a batch of freezer meals for his sister as she prepares for the new baby. I came home with leftovers myself, all made with love.

I know not everyone has the opportunity to be close to family, and that makes me even more grateful. We shared stories, laughter, and memories, cherishing every moment. Add to that the nearly 300 birthday wishes I received from my online community—thank you all for the love! My heart is full.

Turning 71 feels like an honor. I’m well into my seventies now, and I see this as a season to keep creating, learning, and giving. I plan to release Our Forgotten Children as an audiobook before Christmas, continue hosting incredible guests, and, of course, welcome my new grandson into the world. Perhaps a little puppy will join my life in the new year too.

I believe birthdays are sacred reminders that life itself is a gift. Each new year invites us to plant seeds, nourish the day, and live in gratitude. We never know how many days we have, but we can choose to make each one meaningful. Share your wisdom, volunteer, create, and bring your light to others—the return will be tenfold.

So here’s to another year of life, love, and purpose. Thank you to everyone who made my birthday so special. By the time you hear this, I hope I’ll be holding my new grandson in my arms. Until then, remember to listen, learn, and apply, for wisdom is always ready to blossom when you are.

25-39. The Mind Awaits the Soul

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from September 30th

The mind is only a bystander, waiting for direction. I often speak of Knowingness, that sacred moment when the soul’s wisdom whispers truth to the heart, igniting the spirit into action. From there, the mind receives its cue, awakening with clarity exactly when it is needed.

True knowing comes when we trust the wisdom that flows from the core of our being. It speaks through the heart, stirs the spirit, and draws from the mind the clarity we require.

Thus, for all its knowledge, the mind is not the master but the servant, standing by until called upon, waiting for instruction on how best to use what it holds.

We have been conditioned to believe we must think everything, when in truth, it is through feeling that wisdom reveals itself and knowledge is understood. When felt at the core of our being, it is so profound it cannot be argued or denied—for it simply is.

As a child, I lived naturally in this zone of knowing, fully connected to the divine wisdom within. But as I grew, the expectations and demands of life pulled me away, and I forgot how to feel that inner wisdom. Now, many years later, I have found my way back. I am once again in tune with my inner self, at home with the wisdom, trusting the knowledge it reveals, and feeling lovingly and carefully guided at my very core.

I feel we have lived externally for too long, forever chasing life and dreams that are illusions. As a society, we have become lost and disconnected, no longer knowing how to feel the wisdom within. Instead, we live trapped in chaotic minds, mistaking noise for truth and distraction for purpose.

It is only when you give yourself space and time that you truly begin to feel the connection and understand what you need to know, and when. You begin to feel what is right, sense what you need to do, and know when to act on it. These feelings can be deeply encouraging, arriving just when you need them most.

So trust that Knowingness, that feeling of wisdom that brings clarity on what to do. Surrender to those felt truths, for they will not lead you astray. They are your compass, guiding you with certainty and showing you the path forward.

You are a divine being, here to live, listen, learn, and apply the wisdom you gather along the way. When you allow yourself to be guided, you step into the fullness of who you are meant to be. In that space, your light becomes illumination for others, gently inspiring them on their own path of discovery and growth.
