To everyone who has found their way here... welcome home. We've had an incredible wave of new members join The Steward's Path recently, and we don't take that lightly. Whether you stumbled across us, were invited by someone, or felt pulled here by something you can't fully explain yet, you're exactly where you're supposed to be. Take your time, get oriented, and know that this community moves with you! To everyone who has already been showing up, dropping your wins, sharing your struggles, engaging in discussions, and being honest in the comments , thank you. Genuinely. This community is only as powerful as the people in it, and what we love to see that what you've been building here is actually helpful. To our premium members specifically: We see you. And we want you to know , what's been happening behind the scenes! We've been building, recording, writing, and refining at twice the pace, all with one focus: getting you the resources, revelations, and frameworks you're actually asking for. The feedback, including from our recent community polls , has been heard loud and clear. You want more on relationships, marriage, and navigating partnerships with a grounded, scriptural foundation. That's coming. You also want more structured group experiences where we move through teachings together as a community rather than just consuming alone. That's coming too. Cohort-style gatherings where the conversation goes deeper, where we hold each other accountable, and where what we're learning in the classroom meets real life. We also have more for those in the free tiers on the way as well. We've had one-on-one conversations with many of you about the specific walls you're hitting and we're building toward those. We intentionally gave things some breathing room so the newer members would have time to get settled and catch up. That grace period is almost over. Expect a significant increase in events, live sessions, and community conversations rolling out very soon. The space is about to get a lot more LIVE!

I have recently realized how much fear of rejection ruins my thought patterns, my perception and my self-esteem. I have been trying to identify the root of it, but the thing is, I have very little Memory of my childhood! As an adult, I faced rejection from my first husband. When our child was born, and my eyes were opened to the miracle that is motherhood/birth, I wanted to change my whole life. I wanted to quit working as a teacher, find a way to stay home with her and work from home. This was basically the beginning do my walk with The Most High. Now, when he saw I changed so much, he didn’t like it. “You’re an unhealthy kind of mother, why do you want to be with her all day every day? Why breastfeed when you can do other things?”. Well he eventually kicked me and her out, we had to leave Brooklyn and move back into my childhood home with my parents. He later filed paperwork on me, accusing me of kidnapping our child, dragged me through court. I hate to even say all this because it sounds like victim Olympics 😂 bc I do see this as Yahs way of getting us out of there. There are more details, none that matter. But this fear of rejection continues. Now, with friendships and my family even, my fear of enduring that kind of rejection again keeps me stuck in a lot of ways. Even with trying to step into my calling as a baker, I am literally paralyzed sometimes by the fear of “what if they don’t like what I made? What if I disappoint them?”. With friends, it’s “once they find out who I serve, they’ll turn against me so I’d better not be too open or I’ll get hurt”. Even typing this brings tears. I have to work hard at reminding myself that the only one who matters at the end of it is Yah, The Most High. And His approval is what I am seeking. “Well done good and faithful servant”. So I work hard each day to fight in the spirit, asking Him to renew my spirit, give me the courage of Daniel and Kaleb and all the many examples of scripture. I know that rejection is something most of us deal with and o think bc I have dealt with it for so long now, I thought it was “ok” with it. The truth is, operating from this place of being so scared of rejection puts me at risk for making choices based off EMOTIONS. And that has never served me well. So this is my new goal: to really rebuke this fear of rejection. It sounds so silly and small when I type it all out. But I’ve written and erased before, I’m going to face my fear of rejection *right now* and post this! Even though im afraid of the judgement and rejection I may get from you all! If I don’t fight “it”, “it” will win. Shabbat shalom my brothers and sisters 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿 all the glory and all the esteem to our Creator our One Most High El, Yahuah my Abba 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🤎🤎🤎🤎

Staying on the topic of my “self care” journey, after digesting this video really had me go back to where I was a child. It reminded me of what spirit I was raised by and where the unhealthy food relationship began. I remember after getting a whopping my great cousin ( she acted as a grandmother figure to me ) would always ask “you want some sweets” and my brother would automatically say no as a protest to his discipline but on the other hand I would gladly say yes and be satisfied and even get what we know now as a spike of dopamine and forget about the discipline that happened before the sugar. Then there’s times where I had to clean my plate before I got up from the table. That subconsciously that taught me that food was to be eaten no matter how full or satiated you are. What I now realize is that in my earlier years Gluttony essentially raised me and I didn’t depart from its teachings - even until this day. That aunt is still alive but it has taken over her life. I love her to life for doing her best to raise me despite the abuse and spirits she was raised by. She is bed ridden and on oxygen but still pushing and praying! My desire is to break the cycle before gluttony ends up raising my children’s children!

Positive- Thought: I am qualified and built for the responsibility that comes with the life Yah has given me. Emotion: Empowered, hopeful, and determined Action: Seek conscious rewiring, surround myself with likeminded individuals, write. Outcome : Awareness of the cycles that have kept me in the same loop for years, peace within, standing in my authority/ gifts. Being the best version of myself for my husband and children . A generational pioneer Negative- a thought that has been on loop. Thought: I do not like to be seen. I do not like to be perceived. Emotion: sadness, confused , heaviness , shy Action: sit with this feeling . Observe it. Challenge it. Is this true? What happened to my voice ? Start asking the necessary questions and work through it . Introduce thoughts that are true . Outcome: if I can overcome this thought, I believe I can step into my calling .

We've been taught that productivity is noise. Keep moving. Stay busy. If you're not producing, you're falling behind. But what if the most powerful thing you could do today ...right now .. is stop? Not to check out or escape. But instead to actually arrive at the destinations Sooner and more efficient. Most of us are physically present and mentally everywhere else. We're in the room but we're running simulations , replaying yesterday, rehearsing tomorrow, never actually here (I'm sure we can see the same in those around us) Contrary to popular belief, Meditation isn't about clearing your mind. It's about watching your mind. Learning its patterns. Seeing what it reaches for when it's uncomfortable. That's self-knowledge. And self-knowledge is the beginning of real balance and flow in every area of your life. The Psalmist didn't say "figure it out." He said be still, and know. You can't hear clearly in chaos. You can't build according to the vision when being pulled left and right by reaction. The still moments aren't a break from the work. THEY ARE THE WORK! "In the rush and noise of life, as you have intervals, step within yourselves and be still." - William Penn "Be still, and know that I am God." - Psalm 46:10 How often do you actually sit in silence, not consuming, not scrolling, just present? (be Honest) What comes up when you do? What are you usually feeling in those quiet moments? You all do a great job in being thorough and transparent with your replies. im looking forward to hearing your responses!
