Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from May
Who are we really, beneath all the labels, expectations, and identities we have gathered throughout life? From the moment we are born, the world begins shaping us. Parents, schools, religion, culture, media, relationships, and life experiences all begin telling us who we should be, how we should behave, what success should look like, what is acceptable, and what is not. Little by little, many people stop listening to themselves and begin living according to the expectations of others. They become who they were taught to be rather than who they truly are.
Some people become the caretaker because they learned early that love came through service. Others become the achiever because approval only came when they succeeded. Some become quiet, invisible, or emotionally guarded because life taught them it was safer not to shine too brightly. Over time, survival patterns can become identity, and many people no longer remember who they were before fear, criticism, rejection, comparison, or pain entered their lives. They spend years performing versions of themselves that fit into society while feeling deeply disconnected inside.
But underneath all of that conditioning lives the authentic essence of who we truly are. Before the world told us what we should be, there was a natural spirit within us — curious, creative, feeling, intuitive, and uniquely our own. There was a knowingness, an energy, a truth that belonged to us before the noise of the world became louder than our own inner voice. The real tragedy is not that the world influences us, because life itself is a journey of learning and interaction. The tragedy is when we completely abandon ourselves in order to gain acceptance, approval, or survival.
And truly, who has the right to decide who and what we are? No institution, relationship, government, social pressure, diagnosis, or expectation should own our identity. Others may guide us, influence us, teach us, or inspire us, but they should never define the entirety of who we are. The ownership of self belongs to each individual soul. Yet many people spend most of their lives seeking permission to simply be themselves.
The journey of self-discovery is often not about becoming someone new. It is about peeling back the layers of conditioning and remembering who you were before the world placed limitations upon you. That remembering can be uncomfortable because it asks us to question everything: the roles we play, the beliefs we carry, the relationships we tolerate, and the masks we wear to survive. We begin asking ourselves difficult but necessary questions: What do I truly feel? What matters to me? What brings me peace, joy, meaning, and purpose? What no longer belongs to me? Where have I betrayed myself to fit into someone else’s expectations?
This awakening is not about rebellion for the sake of rebellion. It is about authenticity. It is about learning to stand in your own truth with compassion, responsibility, and self-awareness. It is about understanding that you were never meant to be a copy of someone else’s idea of success or worthiness. You were meant to discover your own path, your own voice, your own rhythm, and your own contribution to life.
Perhaps one of the greatest acts of courage today is not becoming more impressive to the world, but becoming more truthful with yourself. To stop performing. To stop shrinking. To stop apologizing for who you are. And instead, to reconnect with the person you were always meant to be before the world told you otherwise.

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from May
The soul is tired of performing. Tired of pretending. Tired of wearing masks to fit expectations, roles, labels, and demands that often have little to do with who we truly are. For so long, humanity has been taught to perform for approval, perform for survival, perform for success, perform for love, and perform for acceptance. We have learned how to present ourselves to the world while quietly disconnecting from the truth of our own essence.
But the soul was never designed to live as a performance. It was meant to live as an expression of divine wisdom flowing naturally through us. It seeks truth, authenticity, connection, purpose, and meaningful presence. It does not wish to compete for worthiness or exhaust itself trying to become enough for others. It simply wishes to be fully aligned with its own knowingness and allowed to flow freely into life.
Within every person lives a wisdom far deeper than intellect alone. The soul carries insight, compassion, intuition, creativity, and an energetic understanding that often speaks quietly beneath the noise of the mind and the chaos of the world. When we become still enough to listen, that wisdom begins to guide us toward what is real, what is aligned, and what matters most in the present moment.
The soul does not need to dominate others to be heard. It simply wishes to ignite truth within others — heart to heart, spirit to spirit. When one person begins living authentically, it gives others permission to do the same. Truth has a resonance to it. It awakens something within people that reminds them of who they are beneath their own layers of performance and conditioning.
This does not mean abandoning the mind, because the mind too has its purpose. The mind is meant to clarify, organize, understand, and bring wisdom into practical action. But the mind was never meant to rule disconnected from the soul. When intellect operates without heart, humanity loses compassion. When knowledge exists without wisdom, people become informed but disconnected. The soul brings meaning to knowledge and humanity to action.
What many people are feeling right now is spiritual exhaustion — not simply physical fatigue, but exhaustion from constantly trying to be what the world expects instead of what the soul knows itself to be. People are yearning for spaces where they can breathe again, where they can stop performing and simply exist in truth without fear of judgment or rejection.
Perhaps this is the great awakening happening now. Not an awakening into superiority, but an awakening back into authenticity. A remembering that the soul already carries wisdom, and that wisdom becomes powerful when it flows into compassionate action, conscious living, and truthful connection with others.
The soul is not asking us to become more impressive. It is asking us to become more real.

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy. On air from May 5th
In my mid-fifties into my mid-sixties, everything began to shift. After asking for the divorce at the end of my forties, I stepped into a chapter that was no longer about just surviving—it was about finding my way forward, even when I didn’t yet know what that path would look like.
The separation itself was not immediate or easy. He did not leave for two years, and during that time I was still navigating the emotional residue of the marriage while trying to carve out some sense of independence. But something in me had already changed. I had drawn a line. I knew I could not go back to who I had been, or how I had been living.
This became a time of rebuilding—emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Fibromyalgia was now firmly part of my life, and I had to learn to live with it rather than fight it. That meant listening to my body, pacing myself, and accepting that my energy was no longer limitless. Some days I could function well, and others I simply had to rest. It was humbling, frustrating at times, but also necessary. It taught me to honour myself in a way I never had before.
At the same time, I began exploring who I was beyond being a wife and mother. For so many years, my identity had been wrapped up in caring for others, holding everything together, and simply surviving. Now I had to ask: who is Sara when she is not defined by those roles? That question led me into courses like True Colours, which had a profound impact on me. They opened doors to deeper self-discovery and helped me reconnect with my own spirit.
I tried many things, not all of them successful, but each one was movement—and movement was something I had been denied for a long time. I began reclaiming my voice, trusting my knowingness, and standing more firmly in myself, even when uncertainty was still present.
My children were growing and stepping into their own lives, and that brought both pride and reflection. I could see how the previous decade had affected them, and I carried both love and regret. But I also understood that we were all now on our own journeys of healing and growth.
During this time, I became immersed in a new relationship—one that awakened my spirituality again and showed me that I was more than I had been led to believe. It was a journey of exploration, but also one of hardship and poverty, and it stayed with me far longer than it should have. Still, it played its role in my awakening, in helping me see more clearly who I was and what I deserved.
This was not an easy chapter, but it was a necessary one. It was the time where I began to come back to life—not all at once, not perfectly, but steadily. I was no longer completely lost. I was finding pieces of myself again, learning how to live within my body, and beginning to step into a life that was mine.
At 57 years old, I became a podcaster, and for that I am deeply grateful. It is my calling and my passion. There was a time when I had lost everything—even my dignity—and I did not know how I would move forward. But podcasting revitalized me. It gave me back my essence, my voice, and a renewed sense of purpose. It showed me that even after losing everything, there is still something within you waiting to rise.
As I moved into my sixties, that purpose became clearer and stronger. Podcasting was no longer just something I did—it became who I am. Through Self Discovery Wisdom, I created a platform not only for myself, but for others to share their journeys, their truths, and their wisdom. In holding space for others, I continued to heal and grow myself.
This chapter of my life has been about returning to self, stepping into purpose, and living with a deeper alignment. I am no longer searching for who I am.
