The Pivot: How Stewardship Got Me Through 6 Months of Silence | Ep. 394

• Tiffany explains she hasn't been in listeners' ears since October due to Hurricane Melissa in Jamaica and major shifts in business and personal life. Power was out for over a month with no water, cell service, or internet.

Sometimes the most practical thing you can do is pause in certain circumstances.

• Stop beating yourself up for not being productive in survival mode. The family sat under candlelight and used flashlights while being mindful with limited water.

You don't have to do everything all at once. You don't have to always be productive. Figure out how to get out of or maintain what you have going on first.

• Look at bank accounts, calendars, and emails to understand where you stand. Avoid the shame spiral—focus on raw data rather than judging past decisions.

If you have $2 in your account right now, be like, okay, I have $2 in my account right now. Let's move on.

• Focus on food, shelter, utilities, and transportation. In business, maintain core mission and connection with most loyal audience. Transportation was critical for charging devices and accessing internet in town daily.

• This hiatus changed Tiffany from talking about budgeting to talking about stewardship. Stewardship is now her word for 2026 and will be the recurring theme in solo episodes ahead.

Stewardship is about management and vision.
