However, the fruit from trees she’s planted tell the rather extraordinary story of a dynamic entrepreneur, volunteer and mother. She trucks along, even when in doubt; and that’s what we call belief. Not many women say they are a mom of seven and Junior Service League member who owns two businesses — and fewer say it with a humble spirit. Stewart relayed, “Life may seem extraordinary from the outside looking in, but to me, it’s normal, and I enjoy every minute.” Initially, Stewart felt her purpose was to strictly raise children. While she loves being a mom, began to hear another calling. Listening, she opened The Dainty Welder, a gorgeous permanent jewelry service. Concurrently, Stewart began to frequent an establishment offering nutritional shakes and teas, which helped her kick a 12-diet-cokes-a-day habit. Realizing her passions for both jewelry and wellness, Stewart opened a store front to house The Dainty Welder and Jedburg Nutrition, a venue as multi-faceted as Stewart herself. It has a sense of place where people can relax in a lush, decorative atmosphere. They can work on projects while sipping detox teas or get memorable pieces of art welded on to feel meaning and beauty at once — or they can just be. Stewart has created a space for people to take their personal sojourn like she did. She has invited people into her fabulous world for the same reason she created it: to thrive.
