What do you do when God says the answer is no? There's so much teaching about when God is saying yes, but what about the under teaching when God is saying this is not yours, this is not your door, this is not your season or this is not your time? This word is designed to help us identify a no from God.

Poison Hemlock (Conium maculatum) is a member of the Apiaceae family—otherwise known as the Carrot family. It's also known as Beaver Poison, Devil's Porridge, Herb Bennet, Poison Parsley, Water Parsley, and Spotted Hemlock. The plants can grow to 2.5m, and they're commonly found in the British countryside. The whole plant is toxic. According to Mrs Burke's Language of Flowers dictionary, hemlock meant 'You will be my death'. The plant appears in history, but how does it appear in folklore, if at all?

You may know Lacy Nicole as Jesse Lally's girlfriend on “The Valley,” but this week, Scheana sits down to talk about the story that started long before Bravo cameras were ever rolling. From growing up with a parent battling addiction to living for years with undiagnosed Stage 4 endometriosis, Lacy opens up about the experiences that shaped her, why safety—not success—has always been her greatest goal, and how she's learned to stop apologizing for her past. The two also get into divorce, dating after heartbreak, blending families, co-parenting, and what it's really like loving someone whose life plays out on reality television. Plus, Lacy shares the truth behind her past conversations about joining “The Real Housewives of Orange County,” reveals why she ultimately passed on the opportunity, and whether she'd walk through that door if the opportunity came around again. Then it's time for a round of rapid-fire questions covering everything from Jesse's biggest "ick" moment to the last Instagram account she stalked, the last person she unfollowed on Instagram, and the rumor about herself that made her laugh. Scheana also shares her Flowers of the Week, highlighting the growing conversation around maternal mental health, before Lacy comes full circle…going from once being named Scheana's Jax-Hole of the Week to getting to name one herself.

He's the guy behind "Betty (Get Money)" and a fur coat two-step that took over TikTok, but before Yung Gravy was flexing platinum plaques, he was studying finance and marketing in college. Today on Money Rehab, we sit down with the rapper who lives a double life: viral hitmaker by night, options trader by day. Gravy walks us through the trade that made him $400K, a bet on 1-800-Flowers stock at the start of COVID, built on a grim but accurate read that funeral orders were about to spike. It's the kind of call institutional investors make quietly all the time; Gravy just said the quiet part out loud, and the internet has been arguing about the ethics of it ever since. We get into how a music-industry paycheck, unpredictable, front-loaded, gone as fast as the trend that made it, pushed him to actually learn the market instead of just spending like a rapper. What it's like sitting in a room with a finance background while everyone assumes you can't do math because you rap about money instead of manage it. Where the rap flex ends and the real portfolio begins. And whether the same instincts that write a viral hook are the same instincts that spot an undervalued stock before anyone else does.

  Host: Dan Panetti   Maturing and aging are NOT the same thing. What is the difference? Well, again I found a terrific word picture in Spurgeon's book Flowers from a Puritan's Garden and he explained the difference between distance and duration - and that hit me as a perfect analogy for maturing vs. aging. In maturity, we want to grow in specific measurables…not just get a year older, but grow in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and with man (Luke 2:52). What does maturity really mean and how can we mature as men - that's our conversation for this episode!   T4M guys - just a reminder that Training4Manhood is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) ministry and you can make donations either via Zelle (info@training4manhood.com) or by visiting the Training4Manhood website.

Stop Setting Goals. Start Setting Floors.“I want to post more.”“I want to follow up more.”“I want to network more.”“I want to make more money.”Those sound like goals, but they are also incredibly vague.In this episode, Jeni shares a different way to approach goal-setting: stop focusing only on the ceiling and start creating a floor.Your floor is the minimum standard for how you operate.Instead of saying, “I want to post more,” your floor might be:I publish three pieces of content every week.You can post four. You can post five. But you do not go below three.It is no longer something you hope to accomplish when you feel motivated, inspired, rested, or caught up.It is simply what you do.Jeni explains why your floor should be achievable enough to survive your busiest week—not just your most motivated one. Setting an unrealistic standard can create an all-or-nothing cycle where one missed day makes you abandon the entire goal.The floor creates consistency.It also removes negotiation.When you have already decided that you post three times a week, review your numbers once a month, spend two hours in CEO mode each week, or follow up with every qualified lead twice, you no longer have to wake up and decide whether you feel like doing it.The decision has already been made.Jeni also dives into why keeping promises to yourself matters. Every time you repeatedly say you are going to do something and then do not follow through, you weaken your own trust in yourself.But when you create realistic standards and consistently keep those promises, you begin reinforcing a completely different identity.You become someone who does what she says she is going to do.In this episode, Jeni talks about:Why vague goals often become hopes and wishesThe difference between a goal and an operating standardHow to create a realistic minimum for yourselfWhy your floor should survive your busiest weekHow unrealistic goals create all-or-nothing behaviorWhy standards eliminate decision fatigueHow a floor removes daily negotiationThe importance of keeping promises to yourselfCreating marketing, sales, CEO, networking, money, and boundary floorsWhy you should set floors around behaviors you can actually controlCreating ceilings around the things you refuse to tolerateWhy your standards should evolve as you growHow getting 1% better can dramatically change your business over timeWhy consistency usually wins over occasional bursts of greatnessExamples of business floorsMarketing floor:I publish three pieces of content every week.Follow-up floor:Every qualified inquiry receives at least two follow-ups.CEO floor:I spend two uninterrupted hours every week working on my business.Networking floor:I make one meaningful industry connection every month.Money floor:I review my numbers every month.Pricing floor:I do not accept a full-service wedding below my minimum.Sales floor:Every week I take at least one action that could directly generate revenue.Create ceilings around the bullshitYour business also needs standards for what you will no longer tolerate.That might look like:I do not discount below a certain amount.I do not take weddings below my minimum.I do not work seven days a week.I do not answer client emails at midnight.I do not accept more weddings in one weekend than my business can execute well.I do not tolerate repeated lateness from freelancers.Your business needs floors for what you require and ceilings for what you tolerate.The four-part frameworkChooseWhat area of your business or life needs more consistency?DefineWhat is your minimum acceptable standard?ProtectWhat systems or routines will keep you from falling below it?RaiseOnce the floor becomes normal, raise it slightly.Your challengeSet five floors:your marketing flooryour sales flooryour CEO flooryour relationship flooryour personal floorThese are not wishes.This is simply how you operate now.Key takeawayYou do not need to dramatically raise the ceiling to grow.Sometimes the biggest transformation comes from raising the floor.Your business is not built on the weeks when you occasionally crush it.It is built on what you consistently do.

Deadly Nightshade (Atropa Belladonna) is part of the Solanaceae family, which also contains peppers, aubergines, tomatoes and potatoes! This most famous of poisonous plants is also known as belladonna, banewort, deadly dwale, Devil's cherries, or death's herb. The deadly nature of belladonna was noted as far back as 1550 BC. It's not a particularly common plant in the wild, although it does prefer woodland. Yet it's not necessarily a plant you might rush out to grow. You might also be hard-pressed to use it for meaningful communication. According to Mrs Burke's Language of Flowers dictionary, nightshade meant 'truth'. In the same book, belladonna is listed with the meaning 'silence'. So how does this plant appear in folklore, besides its links to the Devil and witchcraft?

In this episode of The Dirt on Flowers, Lyndsay and Shannon dive into the real-life highs, lows, and lessons of running a flower farm. They answer listener questions about weed management, flower bed placement, seasonal color palettes, and how they approach fertilizing different crops. They also talk about the challenge of hosting agritourism events when the weather refuses to cooperate—and why sometimes you just have to keep going and hope for the best. The conversation also gets into the business side of farming, including how Lynds works to generate income throughout all 12 months of the year through subscriptions, workshops, flowers, dried products, holiday sales, and more. And, as always, there is plenty of honest farm talk, laughter, behind-the-scenes chaos, and a reminder that even the best growers have weeds.If you want to dive in deeper with us each month, join our membership group - The Dirt on Flowers Insiders!

Laura thinks her husband Cam may be cheating after discovering some suspicious behavior involving his longtime female friend, Holly. So The Jubal Show puts Cam to the test with a surprise flower delivery—and his answer leaves Laura with even more questions. Is this To Catch a Cheater call about to expose an affair, or is there something else going on? Think your partner might be up to something shady? The Jubal Show has you covered. In this explosive segment, The Jubal Show helps suspicious lovers uncover the truth by setting up the ultimate loyalty test.

They also dive into ways flower farmers can create income beyond the growing season, including subscriptions, workshops, dried flowers, holiday sales, and forcing bulbs.

A $15,000 wedding does not automatically make you more money than a $6,000 wedding.In fact, it is completely possible to book a large event, work yourself into the ground, and walk away with almost nothing if you are not paying attention to where your profit is leaking.In this episode, Jeni breaks down the anatomy of a profitable wedding from the initial inquiry all the way through final cleanup.She starts with one of the most important questions: is this wedding actually a good financial fit in the first place?A beautiful vision means nothing if the budget does not support it. A large invoice can quickly become unprofitable when the venue is difficult, teardown is complicated, travel is extensive, the timeline requires an oversized team, or the scope of work is far beyond what was actually priced.Jeni also explains why pricing needs to come from reality—not hope.Your client is not only paying for flowers. They are paying for your expertise, design, logistics, team, problem solving, sourcing, transportation, setup, teardown, admin time, overhead, and your ability to make the event happen when things inevitably go sideways.From there, Jeni walks through some of the biggest profit leaks in floral businesses, including overbuying, overly complicated recipes, labor creep, poor prep, freelancer inefficiency, excessive tweaking, underestimated logistics, and unpaid owner labor.She also shares how strategic design can improve both profitability and visual impact. Profitable design is not about making things cheap. It is about using creativity, mechanics, styling, repurposing, rentals, negative space, candles, linens, and focal moments intentionally.Jeni also dives into the real cost of repurposing, the profit potential of rentals, delivery and setup fees, teardown, hidden supply costs, and all the hours of work that happen before wedding week even begins.Finally, she explains why every florist should complete a post-wedding profitability review and ask whether the wedding was actually worth doing.Because profitability is not only about money.It is also about whether the stress, energy, and time required were worth what the business received in return.In this episode, Jeni talks about:Why not every dollar of revenue is equally profitableHow to determine whether a client's vision and budget are actually alignedWhy difficult venues and unrealistic timelines should affect pricingHow florists accidentally work for free on large eventsWhy pricing needs to include far more than flower costsThe real value of your expertise and problem-solving abilityHow overbuying turns profit into compostWhy complicated recipes can increase both product and labor costsHow labor creep silently destroys marginsWhy your own labor is never freeUsing an effective hourly rate to evaluate how you spend your timeHow strategic design can create more visual impact with less wasteWhen repurposing actually saves money—and when it does notHow rentals can become a profitable revenue streamWhy delivery and setup should never be an afterthoughtWhy teardown needs to be priced separatelyThe small supply costs that quietly add up across a wedding seasonWhy pre-wedding admin and design time must be accounted forHow to compare estimated costs with actual costsWhy post-wedding profitability reviews help you improve every eventThe five-part profitability frameworkPriceDid you charge enough for everything required?PurchaseDid you buy strategically and stay within your recipe and budget?ProduceDid you and your team work efficiently?PerformDid delivery, setup, logistics, and teardown stay within expectations?PostmortemDid you review what actually happened so the next wedding becomes more profitable?Questions to ask after every weddingWas this wedding worth doing?Would I book another wedding like this?Would I work at this venue again?What was the most profitable part?Where did my margin disappear?What should I charge differently next time?What process needs to change?Did I actually enjoy doing it?Was the stress commensurate with the money?Key takeawayA big invoice does not guarantee a profitable wedding.Profit is protected through dozens of decisions before, during, and after the event.Know your numbers. Protect your labor. Buy strategically. Price logistics correctly. Review what actually happened.Then get 1% better on the next one.Mentioned in this episodeThe Floral CEO Mastermindhttp://floralceo.com/mastermind

This book opened a door and no one could ever close that door again.Today we meet Patrick Doyle and we're talking about the queer book that saved his life: Our Lady of the Flowers by Jean Genet.PLEASE NOTE: This is an explicit book and so our episode is too. There is strong sexual content.Patrick Doyle writes queer fiction, ranging from romance to mystery to thrillers and science fiction to just plain fiction. His stories depict gay men facing the challenges of living and loving in today's world. His previous novels include Pierre and Bill, Beau's Dilemma, and Jordi's Day. His latest novel, Bill & The Kid: A Queer Family. A Troubled Child. A Secret. A Crime comes out on October 1, 2026.Our Lady of the Flowers is considered Genet's masterpiece. It is a lyrical portrait of the criminal underground of Paris and the thieves, murderers and pimps who occupied it. Genet approached this world through his protagonist, Divine, a male transvestite prostitute. In the world of Our Lady of the Flowers, moral conventions are turned on their head. Sinners are portrayed as saints and when evil is not celebrated outright, it is at least viewed with a benign indifference.Connect with Patrickwebsite: patrickdoylewrites.comgoodreads: @Patrick_DoyleOur BookshopVisit our Bookshop for new releases, current bestsellers, banned books, critically acclaimed LGBTQ books, or peruse the books featured on our podcasts: bookshop.org/shop/thisqueerbookBuy your copy of Our Lady of the Flowers here: https://bookshop.org/a/82376/9780802130136Become an Associate Producer!Become an Associate Producer of our podcast through a $20/month sponsorship on Patreon!

I can't encourage you enough to be reading good books as part of your growth plan - God's Word is first and foremost, but make sure you are adding some other great books to challenge and encourage you in your walk!   T4M guys - just a reminder that Training4Manhood is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) ministry and you can make donations either via Zelle (info@training4manhood.com) or by visiting the Training4Manhood website.

Bigger weddings can mean bigger revenue—but they can also come with bigger expenses.Studio rent. Coolers. Ladders. Lifts. Rental inventory. Delivery vehicles. Equipment. Staffing.And if you are not careful, all of those expenses can start eating away at the profit you were hoping to make by taking on larger events.In this episode, Jeni shares some of the practical hacks she has learned after more than 20 years in the floral industry for scaling into larger weddings without feeling like you need to buy everything first.She starts by challenging the idea that a successful florist needs a beautiful commercial studio. Jeni has operated as a home-based florist throughout her career and explains why keeping overhead low has allowed her to protect profit while still building a workspace capable of handling large-scale events.She also talks about one investment she does believe can dramatically change the experience of taking on bigger weddings: a cooler. Having proper flower storage can reduce stress, protect delicate product, and give you more flexibility during busy wedding weeks.From there, Jeni dives into renting instead of buying.Need a 12-foot ladder for one installation? Rent it.Need a lift for a massive hanging installation? Rent it—and understand exactly what kind of lift the venue has before assuming it will work.Need Harlow stands or specialty event equipment that you may only use once? Check with event rental companies before adding more inventory to your studio.Jeni also shares why she continues to rent U-Hauls instead of investing in an expensive branded cargo van. For her business, paying for transportation only when she needs it makes more financial sense than adding another major fixed expense.The goal is not to look like the biggest floral company.The goal is to build a profitable business with the tools and resources that make the work easier—without unnecessarily increasing your overhead.In this episode, Jeni talks about:Why bigger weddings can quickly eat away at your profit marginWhy you do not need a commercial studio to have a successful floral businessThe financial reality of adding thousands of dollars in monthly rentHow a home-based studio can support a large wedding businessWhy having a cooler can become a game changer as you scaleFinding more affordable used or commercial coolersWhy you should consider renting equipment before buying itRenting ladders for large installationsWhat to ask venues about their lifts before wedding dayHow the wrong lift turned one installation into a seven-hour projectWhy renting specialty event equipment can make more sense than owning itAsking rental companies about wedding-vendor discountsWhy you do not necessarily need an expensive branded delivery vanHow Jeni uses U-Haul rentals for large wedding weekendsWhy transportation costs need to be built into delivery, setup, and teardown feesHow controlling overhead helps protect profit as your business growsKey takeawayYou do not have to own every resource your business might someday need.Before adding another major expense, ask:Do I actually need to own this—or do I simply need access to it?Scaling does not have to mean piling on overhead.Sometimes the smartest way to grow is to rent, borrow, optimize what you already have, and spend money only where it genuinely makes your business easier and more profitable.

In this episode, Lyndsay and Shannon discuss the challenge of comparison traps in flower farming. Drawing from six years of building six-figure businesses, they offer practical advice on transforming jealousy into motivation. Key topics include using self-reflection to identify what truly triggers envy, focusing on controllable factors, viewing others' success as proof of what's possible, investing in education and mentorship, and building supportive communities. Their core message: comparison is natural, but how you respond to it determines your growth.If you want to dive in deeper with us each month, join our membership group - The Dirt on Flowers Insiders!
