The Book of Life was written to help people be happy with whatever they have so that they can go on to be successful in life with whatever they do. This is not a book to create wealth, lose weight, find the right partner, etc. It’s a book to create joy in your life . . . to create satisfaction with whatever is in your life . . . and, to banish fear from your life.

Although our beliefs shape our lives, they are only personal beliefs and do not necessarily hold true for others. They have been passed on to us from our parents, teachers, and authority figures and we believe them.

The Book of Life offers practical ideas and useful exercises on creating a better life, which are presented in a down to earth, easy to read manner. The understanding you may gain will enable you to break free of the beliefs that are holding you back. This book can literally change your life.

17-37 Toronto are you ready for me?

September 7, 2017November 5, 2017Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

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

Toronto, a city of vibrancy and high energy. I am asked why I would leave beautiful Vancouver for Toronto, we have so many islands, mountains, with rivers and an ocean around us, and it’s warmer why go? Well, the answer is this, 1. I have hardly had 30 days with my eldest daughter in 10 years as she lives in Toronto and I want more time with her. 2. I need to be around new energy to grow into my next phase of life and business.

I know going in the middle of winter is crazy, (November) but this is the time shown to me, I have a strong feeling to go and so I must follow that feeling. I have been waiting for the guidance of my direction for a while, I have to move, but did not know where here in BC? Nanaimo calls me, I have a wonderful daughter there too, but not till later after I have achieved what I need to do, then maybe there as its energy is so peaceful.

Leaving my other two children here will be hard, my some Tyler will be running his new venture Humble Roots Cafe/deli, and my daughter Tasha finishing university. I am not leaving for ever, just till I have emerged into my new purpose and added some zest to my life, I will always want to be near my children, that is why it is Tabytha’s turn in Toronto.

I am excited, I like Toronto, it is a city of life of living and of getting things done. With my next chapter in Self Discoveries story, I need to be around the I see it people, the do it people and everything is calling me there. I had hoped to go back to the UK to expand, and I will at some stage, but it is not the first step, Toronto is.

You will see Self Discovery Radio become Self Discovery Community, where I will be supporting with radio video and more, organizations/foundations/charities that are doing great work for people by raising money and awareness for them. I already have one wonderful Veteran organization on board with more to come. You will also hear some wonderful series shows from them and others to give a fuller picture on their topics.

This is where I need you folks, I will be house sitting in Toronto, so if you know of any people or organizations to help me find a place, please let me know. Also I am asking for support in getting there, every penny helps and would be so appreciated, for years now I have supported this station, now in order to help those in need even further, I am asking for help in what I need to achieve this and my gratitude will be poured into the work I am doing for people in their Self Discovery in our community.

This is my 63 Birthday gift to me, a new adventure, a new step in Self Discovers evolution and even a new step towards a loving life for me.

It is exciting, so join me here as I speak to more of why Toronto

C17-37 Fantasy and Illusion of Cyber Relationships

September 6, 2017October 22, 2017Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest John Krotec, ON AIR FROM September 12th

In the search for acceptance, sexual assault survivor John Krotec discusses his own personal experience trying to find love in the cyber-world. He will detail how he first found the romantic cyber world and the pitfalls he encountered. His reactions to his own behaviour while in the cyber-world nearly ruined his personal life. He will talk about the nature of the cyber world, a place where because of technology you can be anybody or anything you want to be. It is his belief that such cyber-relationships are not real, just fantasy and illusion and, if not kept in check (the proper perspective), can erode the human spirit.

It really was a search for acceptance and satisfaction…things I was not finding in my own personal relationships and job…brought on by serious low self-esteem…

“Putting Out The Self-Loathing Fire”

The journey of self-actualization (I call it the struggle for authenticity) is lifelong. For me and for millions of others, it can be and has been excruciatingly emotionally painful at times. However, for those struggling, there is a way out. It’s not easy. It takes brutal honesty and courage to overcome. After months of one-on-one therapy, I believe the only way to truly self-actualize is to dig deep, to introspect, and to do the hard work that will erase the negative limiting self-beliefs that can and will continue to reinforce self-loathing. You will have setbacks and you will make mistakes (I certainly have), but you will have small victories, too. I ultimately belief these small accomplishments can be built upon and lead you to success.

My own personal struggles dealing with self-loathing were the result of two significant events in my early life, events that took place before the age of fifteen. The extreme self-loathing created by these significant events fueled an extreme need for acceptance and love–not self-acceptance and self-love–but finding acceptance and love from others. The first event, being sexually assaulted, destroyed many parts of my self-esteem. It was not good. It sucked. The second event further reinforced my feelings of inadequacy AND added even more psychological destruction to my already fragile sense of self. Without going into too much detail about it, let’s just say it concerned the behavior of a parent and it created more confusion for me on the important subject of marital fidelity.

I will be sharing my personal journey for self-actualization with you in the hopes that my story will help others suffering from similar circumstances and feelings. One of the subjects that I will be exploring will be online relationships. Drawing upon my own experiences, I hope to expose the pitfalls of looking for acceptance and love in the digital world, a world full of fantasy and illusion. I know firsthand that millions are suffering. In the process, I hope to heal myself and my marriage and not add any more fuel to my self-loathing fire.

Please join me…it’s time to live a real life…

Scott A. Huesing is a retired the United States Marine Corps Infantry Major with 24 years of honourable service, both enlisted and as a commissioned officer. During his career spanning 10 deployments, he has conducted operations in over 60 countries worldwide. Throughout his numerous deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Horn of Africa he planned, led, and conducted hundreds of combat missions under some of the most austere and challenging conditions.

Scott is a published author since 2005. His upcoming book, Echo in Ramadi, (due out February 2018, Regnery) is a ten-month snapshot in time that changed the face of operations on the battlefield; a captivating story of Echo Company, 2d Battalion, 4th Marines during the Second Battle of Ramadi in support of the Multi-National Forces (MNF) Surge Strategy in 2006. His true-life account provides keen insights into what may be an unfamiliar world to readers, but very familiar to those, like Scott, who lived it and endured this historic fight. Echo in Ramadi was written to honour the sacrifices and spirit of his Marines and the families they supported – it is his tribute to them and his honour to tell this great story. Readers will feel the pain, emotion, laughter, intensity, and friction that Scott describes in unvarnished detail.

RAISING AWARENESS FOR

VETERAN SUICIDE ONE MILE AT A TIME

On Friday July 22nd, Major Scott A. Huesing USMC (Ret), the Bestselling Author of Echo in Ramadi is riding his Harley Davidson motorcycle across the country again for Save the Brave (STB) to raise awareness for Veteran Suicide. Huesing (51), the Executive Director of Save the Brave (501c3) began this ride in 2020 to honor his high school friend and veteran, David W. White (aged 48), who died from alcohol poisoning on Sunday, June 7, 2020, in Butte, Montana. Huesing will ride from Bastards Canteen in Temecula, California to Palmetto Brewing Company in Charleston, South Carolina.

During the 9-day journey, Huesing will make several stops to ask supporters to donate to STB and ride along with him on his journey to raise awareness for veteran suicide – emphasizing that these are not statistics anymore, they are friends and sons and brothers that we all know. He’ll be joined by fellow veterans and riders from every state he passes through amidst the heat of July. Their goal – $100,000.

When asked, “Why did you pick July to make this ride?” Huesing responded, “I didn’t pick the month – the month picked me. If nothing else, it’s a reminder to everyone who joins me along the way that maybe we need to suffer a little bit to be reminded exactly why we are riding.” Veterans dealing with depression, alcohol abuse, and PTSD are especially impacted by the isolation this pandemic has caused in many cases.

This is a unique opportunity to stay connected as veterans and as communities while supporting a worthwhile charity.
