My name is Marcus Stewart, and I understand firsthand the challenges that come with living with disabilities. For much of my life, I’ve faced moments where understanding things didn’t come easily, or finding the right words felt like climbing a mountain. But through every obstacle, I’ve held on to the strength and determination instilled in me by someone very special—my mother.

My mother has battled her own share of disabilities. She’s endured physical pain, long-term medications, and daily hurdles that many people never see. Despite all this, she remained my greatest source of strength. Her resilience wasn’t about being flawless—it was about pushing forward, no matter how hard the day.

From her, I learned that it’s okay to learn at your own pace. It’s okay to ask for help. It’s okay to struggle—as long as you keep moving forward. Every small step counts, and every bit of progress is something to be proud of.

This mission, this work, and this journey—it’s all built on that foundation of hope, persistence, and compassion. I’m here to help others navigate their own paths, with the understanding that strength comes in many forms.
