Scott Beck - Beyond the Badge: A Father's Journey of Healing and Leadership

In this episode, Scott opens his heart as he describes many aspects of his life’s story. He is vulnerable and humble as he shares details of past childhood sexual molestation that had never been shared publicly before. Scott talks about his parents and upbringing including the tragedy of losing his dad at just 18 years old. Right before his final semester at Florida State University, his mom had a stroke and he left school to be her caretaker. He experienced a spouse’s infidelity and mental health issues which ultimately brought about a divorce, had been on the verge of homelessness, handled single fatherhood challenges and slowly rebuilt his life after great losses. 
Scott tells about his destiny purpose and the path God had him follow. Scott has always been a devoted family member and friend. He developed into a strong influential leader and coach. During his years serving in law enforcement Scott had the opportunity to serve in each branch and division of his department which afforded him great learning. He was one of the first to develop strategies to fight crimes against children.
His love for God surpasses all things and talking about his faith lights him up like nothing else.
Scott Beck is a retired Law Enforcement Officer who now serves the Treasure Coast as a realtor at Beach Front Mann Realty  (https://www.beachfrontrealty.net) helping people find their dream homes. He is also Bella Healing Hearts Foundation’s Vice President, a nonprofit his wife founded in 2022 to serve single parent families.
He served for 30 years as a Law Enforcement Officer helping many, of which, he served 27 years with the Port St. Lucie Police Department. Scott is passionate about community policing, community service and improving the quality of life for others. Throughout his career he has received awards and plaques for a job well done. He also has been promoted several times; from a police officer rank to that of a Sergeant’s rank and retired as a Lieutenant. Currently, he serves on the board of directors of the Port St. Lucie Police Athletic League. He loves mentoring and coaching his fellow police officers and other community members.
Scott has had experience in a variety of roles within the business world, specifically within the restaurant and newspaper industries. He’s a true Floridian and a surfer at heart. When he is not working, mentoring, or helping others, he can be found by the beach with his wife. Both of their dreams include sitting on the beach everywhere in the world, at least once. He is a man of faith who values integrity, loyalty, and honesty.
This year, Scott and his wife celebrate 20 years of marriage. Scott is Pop Pop to seven boys and dad to four daughters.
Scott has served the Lord as a lay minister for over 20 years in a variety of ways; as a greeter, Sunday school teacher, youth mentor, and DivorceCare facilitator. For seven years, Scott, along with his wife, had helped individuals heal from divorce. They both have also helped couples in marital crisis. Scott and Georgette’s heart’s desire is to help save marriages, help people who are experiencing a divorce, and those who need mentoring and encouragement.

Our guest is Stewart Feketa.
 
Stewart is a man of faith, a family  man,  and a  very  successful  entrepreneur  and  businessman.
 
Most in our community know of Stewart’s involvement with Nature’s Keeper, a commercial landscape firm owned by his family with Staff of 40 employees and now know how this man, once battered by life’s storms, now stands as a beacon – a pastor who doesn’t just preach sermons but lives them. His scars tell a story of redemption. 
 
He is originally from Utica, New York, went to Clinton Senior High School and now resides in Fort Pierce, Florida with his wife Marcie Feketa.
 
Stewart is a pastor with Plant a Seed on the Water ministries. They preach by the Fort Pierce Marina every Sunday morning.
 
Community outreach is nothing new to Stewart as he has been heavily involved in helping his community in a variety of ways. He participated in fundraising for a teacher who had stage 4 cancer. He received Lifetime Achievement Award from St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office. He was part of a Hurricane relief in Charlette County.
 
Stewart lost his daughter Santia Feketa when she and her best friend Brittany Poindexter were killed in a wrong-way crash in February 2018 by a 99-year-old Michigan man. The family has since created a scholarship in her honor to support students with the same passion as his daughter.
 
During this interview Stewart courageously shares other personal life events and life challenges he has survived and experienced.
