About Troy
Transformational coach Troy Byer speaks from personal experience. As a child of divorce, survivor of the foster care system and a single-parent, troy-speaks Troy knows first-hand how easy it is to give into feelings of depression and defeat. “There was a time when that voice in my head continuously reminded me that I was a victim of neglect–that I was unlovable," says Troy. "Then one day, something wonderful happened, I opened my mouth and created a new conversation about myself. When we change our conversation about ourselves, we instantly change our experience of ourselves.”


In her new book Ex-Free: 9 Keys to Freedom After Heartbreak, Troy offers practical, no-nonsense insight into owning up, getting over, and putting the past where it belongs – behind you. The “secret” to Ex Free success is learning how to make your pain work for you instead of against you. Troy's book Ex-Free was recently ranked #4 on Amazon's Self-Help Bestsellers list. According to Troy, "The 9 keys offered in Ex-Free teach individuals how to free themselves from heartbreak and open their hearts to a deeper love; self love." Ex-Free also shares the secret behind Troy's current, unconventional and incredibly close friendship with her ex-husband, his fiancé, his fiancé’s ex-husband and wife. Troy’s fortitude and ability to excel in all she does is a true testament to her hard-hitting approach to triumph over difficulties.

She has worked with Oscar-winning actors, Emmy and Golden Globe nominees, and countless A-list talent.


Extending beyond Troy’s passion for show business is her love of writing and leading transformational seminars. Six years of intense training in Ontology – the design of being human – earned her the title of certified senior Self Expression Leadership Program leader for Landmark Education, a global, transformational organization (www.landmarkeduation.com ). In addition to continuing her ontological studies, Troy continues to pursue her studies in Depth Psychology and she is an active member of Agape International Spiritual Center (www.agapelive.com ) in Los Angeles.


If you ask Troy why she has chosen to live a life of service to others she will tell you: “I am deeply committed to being the bridge that transforms an individual’s debilitating monologues into powerful dialogues. People living lives they love is what drives me. Yeah, that’s it for sure.” Troy can be heard transforming the lives of others every Wednesday on The Steve Harvey Morning Show at 9:30am PST.
