The Pivot: How Stewardship Got Me Through 6 Months of Silence | Ep. 394
What happens when life forces you into a hiatus—and how do you use stewardship to weather the storm? After Hurricane Melissa devastated Jamaica, I went quiet for 6 months. No power for over a month. No water. No internet. Just survival mode with my kids, sitting under candlelight, charging phones in the car to stay connected. I felt guilty as a creator. We're told consistency is king. But sometimes the most practical thing you can do is pause. In this episode, I share the 3 stewardship principles that got me through: 1. Give yourself grace — Stop beating yourself up for not being productive in survival mode 2. Assess the damage without judgment — Look at your numbers without the shame spiral 3. Prioritize the four walls — Food, shelter, utilities, transportation. Everything else can wait. This hiatus changed me. It moved me from "budgeting" to "stewardship"—and stewardship is my word for 2026. If you're in a financial or life storm right now, this one's for you. 🎯 Find your stewardship path: moneytalkwitht.com/start 📚 The Stewardship Series continues April 9, 16, and 23 #stewardship #financialresilience #moneymindset #personalfinance #hurricanemelissa #jamaica #financialstorm #budgeting #fourwalls #moneytalkwithtiff
