IG25-51. Abhinav Jindal, Become a Conscious Creator.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast Leave a comment

Ignite Your Heart and Soul with Sara Troy and her guest Abhinav Jindal, on air from December 23rd

I am on a mission to empower purpose driven people to create success and fulfillment in all 6 areas of their life. We are all creating our life experiences, whether consciously or unconsciously. I believe every human has the right to become a conscious creator of their own life — to turn dreams into reality. To be who they are meant to be. To do what they are meant to do. To have what they are meant to have. And to experience what they truly wish to experience in this lifetime. I learned how to consciously create my life and now I want to share this skill with everyone. Creating a positive impact in other people’s lives fulfills me.

Abhinav’s journey into this work began with a single question, what does it take to manifest life? What started as a search for clarity became a deep exploration of the mind and the emotions that shape every choice we make. Along the way, he discovered that transformation is not only about making conscious changes but making changes at the unconscious level. Having lived this shift himself, Abhinav now guides others to experience the same – to release what’s been holding them back and reconnect with a sense of purpose that feels natural, not forced. His approach blends structure with empathy, bringing the science of the mind and the art of human understanding into one seamless process. With years of experience leading companies and developing high-performing teams, he bridges inner fulfilment with growth.

He is the founder of CYDIR (acronym of Convert Your Dreams Into Reality) where he hosts events, community dinners and coaches entrepreneurs with the purpose of guiding them to create success and fulfillment in their life. 

Behind the profession I am a husband, son and brother. I am a person who is excited about the little joys in life. I love driving, listening to music and travel the world. I love connecting with new like-minded people and be friends with them. I am on the journey to create an outstanding life for myself and my loved ones.

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.

25-40. Gift of Another Year

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from October 7th

Well, when this show airs, I’ll have just turned seventy-one, the big 71, entering my seventh decade. It’s just a number, really, one that’s shaped more by attitude than years. Still, considering my father died at forty-five and others I’ve known have left this world far too early, I see each birthday as a privilege. I’ve survived another year, and I hope to see many more ahead.

As I look back across these seven decades, at all I’ve done, where I’ve been, what I’ve achieved, and even the “why did I do that” moments , I carry forward the good memories and leave the rest behind. Life is full, and I am blessed. My days are busy with podcasting, sharing extraordinary stories from around the world, and now, as a grandmother awaiting the birth of another grandchild, my heart is full of love and anticipation. Between the shows, the babies, and the books, my schedule is bursting, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Turning another year older only deepens my gratitude. I’ve signed a contract with the universe to keep doing this work for as long as I can see, hear, and talk, hopefully well into my nineties! The universe, of course, has its own plans, but I follow its guidance with joy. I’m proud of the books I’ve helped bring into the world — Our Forgotten Children, Liberate Your True Self, The Discovery of Self, and the next, Our Forgotten Seniors. Each one carries stories of wisdom, courage, and hope.

Age, I’ve learned, isn’t a decline; it’s an accumulation of knowledge, of grace, of purpose. The aches and pains come, but passion fuels me past them. I find inspiration in people in their sixties, seventies, eighties, even nineties, still living their dreams, still shining their light. They remind me that joy and purpose are the true youth elixirs.

So, don’t let age or limitations stop you. Share your story, your lessons, your laughter. Listen to your body, honor your energy, and live from the inside out. Let your wisdom serve others. Growing older is not something to fear, it’s something to celebrate. It’s a privilege to be here, to love, to create, to witness new generations rise, and to still have dreams that call us forward.

To everyone out there, whether it’s your birthday or simply another beautiful day, remember that every sunrise is a new birth, a new beginning. Live it fully, love it deeply, and keep sharing your light with the world.

QS25-37 Jeff Burningham’s “The Last Book Written by a Human”

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Quantum Spirituality with Sara Troy and her guest Jeff Burningham, on air from September 16th

Jeff, a true Phenom, joins me for a thoughtful, energized, and wide-ranging conversation sparked by the idea of “The Last Book Written by a Human”—as AI transforms nearly every aspect of modern life, the question is no longer what’s next for machines, but what’s next for us.

Tech entrepreneur, investor, and former Utah gubernatorial candidate Jeff Burningham explores that urgent question in his bold new book, The Last Book Written by a Human: Becoming Wise in the Age of AI (Forefront Books; August 19, 2025). A high-performing founder turned deep thinker, Jeff went from building billion-dollar companies to confronting burnout, loss, and the limits of chasing success—emerging with a new, human-centered lens on how we must evolve in the face of AI.

Jeff is now on a mission to help others move beyond relentless “doing” to rediscover the power of simply “being”—of choosing meaning, connection, and wisdom in a machine-paced world.

Jeff Burningham brings a deeply human perspective to the age of AI. As a father of four and a grandfather, he reflects on raising human beings in a digital world, teaching his kids to stay emotionally grounded and endlessly curious even while surrounded by smart technology. He argues that the real threat isn’t AI itself, but our tendency to lose touch with what makes us human—and asks whether we can evolve consciously rather than just technologically. After years of relentless achievement, Jeff hit a wall and discovered that stillness, presence, and intuition often outweigh the power of nonstop productivity. He also explores what AI teaches us about ourselves, reminding us that what we feed into machines—our values, priorities, and flaws—shapes the outcomes. And with candor, he shares his own journey from devout Mormon to boundary-pushing explorer, showing how faith, psychedelics, and rewriting the script of success can open new doors to transformation and truth.

My journey has taken me from boardrooms to political campaigns, and from the highs of entrepreneurial success to the depths of personal transformation. As a former Bishop leading a congregation of over 500 people, I bring the heart of a spiritual leader to every arena I enter—whether in business, politics, or family life as a devoted husband, father of four, and proud grandfather. My book, The Last Book Written by a Human, is a deeply personal exploration of the choices we face in the age of AI, as well as an invitation to embrace wisdom, connection, and real human evolution.

Jeff Burningham is an advocate for a new way forward in a world increasingly shaped by AI. Having built and invested in hundreds of tech companies, he brings firsthand insight into innovation and its impact on society. His run for Governor of Utah showcased his willingness to challenge the political status quo, while his explorations into consciousness, transformation, and the limits of human potential reveal a lifelong commitment to reimagining what it means to live, lead, and thrive in our evolving world.

TSM25-37. Stephanie L. Maley, “No Longer That Girl”

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Their Story Matters with Sara Troy with guest Stephanie L. Maley, on air from September 16th

“No Longer That Girl takes hard topics and turns them into palpable illumination. This story is proof that we can transform our wounds into love and healing. Sometimes we need to look into our past in order to move forward in our lives. Not everyone has the courage to be so self-honest, but Steph delivers her truth with hope to live by.” 

Through writing, Stephanie confronts her past with compassion, embracing the child she once was and the woman she’s become. Her journey weaves together stories of abandonment, serious health struggles, and deeply traumatic encounters with men she trusted. Supported by her therapist, husband, and faith, she unravels the betrayals that shaped her need to please and her longing to be loved—ultimately finding her voice, her power, and her joy.
