Welcome to the cypher! Audio Nuggets is where you will find a symbiotic force; both the heaviness of the air to breathe, and the light of freedom of liberation. Where human consciousness is alive. Each voice has a moment to spotlight their IT; their shine; their journey; their truth; their gold. We are honored to be joined by Tewabech Genet Stewart for this episode, From Termination to Adoption to Repair: What I Carry For Love.

Tewabech Genet Stewart is an award-winning leader, strategist, and advocate dedicated to abolishing the harmful system of family separation. With more than 22 years inside Florida’s family policing system, she now uses her voice and experience to expose the truth: the system is a modern form of enslavement and must be abolished because it is not grounded in truth, not aligned with science, and defies common sense. Genet has developed a seven-step framework to build a new system. One that strengthens families and is aligned with biblical principles.

This episode asks us to look unflinchingly at the stories we inherit and the systems we live inside. She takes us into the tender and the difficult: how family and belonging can be bound up with control, how silence can be both protection and harm, how sacrifice and suffering often make our own lives possible.

This is a conversation that unsettles easy notions of care. It is also a conversation that refuses to let us look away from the costs of the current family policing system—the way families are broken apart, the way racism shapes who gets to parent their children, and the ways we may cling to benefit even as we condemn injustice. This episode calls us toward a deeper reckoning: to repair what has been inherited, to imagine abolitionism not as absence but as a new form of presence, and to confront what we might be most afraid to lose in the pursuit of liberation.
