Podcasts about Prune

In this episode, I'm diving into the theme of seasons of Hustle and Harvest, specifically how to recognize when it's time to push, play, and prune. I'm sharing my personal perspective on hustle culture, the healthy (and unhealthy) ways to push forward, and why play and celebration are just as important as working hard. You'll also hear about my own struggles with skipping harvest seasons and how I've learned to embrace rhythms of joy, rest, and relationships. As a bonus, I'm introducing a 3-question litmus test you can use to discover which season you're in right now, so you can find clarity, set boundaries, and live in alignment with your values. The Heart of this Conversation: Why hustle isn't always toxic (and when it is necessary). The three essentials for a healthy hustle (goals, boundaries, intention). Why harvest (celebrating and enjoying life) can feel harder than hustle, and how to reframe it. Simple rhythms and practices to embrace the fruits of your labor The importance of pruning commitments, habits, and relationships to make space for growth. My 3-question litmus test for knowing if you should be pushing, playing, or pruning right now.

Feeling the seasonal shift even before the official autumn equinox? In this reflective episode, Donna shares her observations about the major energy shift happening as we move from summer's expansion into fall's harvest season. From waking up to cooler temperatures and shorter days to feeling the effects of recent eclipses and full moons, there's a palpable change in the air. Instead of rushing toward year-end goals, Donna invites you to pause and look backward first - what have you actually created since spring? What's working that deserves more energy? What needs to be pruned away?Using the metaphor of tending her garden (literally spending four hours pruning overgrown plants), Donna explains why this harvest season is perfect for refining and tweaking what's already working rather than starting completely new projects. She also touches on how this seasonal shift fits into the larger 5D ascension and new earth transformation many are experiencing.A gentle reminder to slow down, reflect, grab your pumpkin latte, and tend to your business garden with intention.**Sacred Marketing Activation** - A 20-minute guided experience to discover your authentic marketing voice (available at donnaashton.com/activation)Attract Clients AuthenticallyFREE> Donna's Sacred Marketing Activation: for conscious entrepreneurs who want to grow their business with flow and ease.

Facing tightening SGMA regulations and the specter of future droughts, how should we be designing the almond orchard of the future? On the podcast, Franz Niederholzer discusses his idea of a test almond orchard at the Nickels Soil Lab with different rootstocks provided reduced irrigation treatments from planting onward. Should a grower provide full irrigation to fewer acres, or reduced irrigation to their existing farming footprint?Come to an upcoming extension meeting!2025 International School on Microirrigation for Crop Production: Class Lectures at UC Davis October 13-15, and field trips October 16-17.

Researchers have been conducting almond irrigation and other studies at the Nickels Soil Lab in Arbuckle, CA for over 50 years! On the podcast, Franz Niederholzer revisited research on early microirrigation, the consequences of late season drought in young almonds, and the implications of one-year of season-long drought in mature almonds. Dialing in irrigation is the greatest task for California orchardists, and we should continue to learn from the lessons of our predecessors.

Environmental bud failure showed up in almonds in a big way in 2025. From a subtle delay of leafing in parts of Nonpareil canopies throughout the Central Valley to some orchards in the northern Sacramento Valley with only half leaf out. This disorder also called leafing failure, severely affected many growers in the northern Sacramento Valley. Dr. Tom Gradziel (UC Davis) gets into the complexities of this disorder, as well as discussing the unusual bloom in 2025.

If you work in the almond industry, you likely know non-infectious bud failure (NBF) is bad news. However, do you understand why NBF happens, and that we're likely to see it on future almond varieties, not just on Carmel? Tom Gradziel discusses the science behind NBF and the work UC researchers together with nurseries have done to make massive gains in addressing the problem.

What if being "so busy” is why you're carrying stubborn low belly fat that just won't budge—no matter how clean you eat or how much you move? Let's talk about “The Monster” of all distractions!   We live in an age of endless input: podcasts, social media, news updates, YouTube rabbit holes — even “healthy” content can become unhealthy when it overwhelms the nervous system and keeps us in perpetual consumption mode with constant micro-stressors. In this third episode of the four-part Distraction Detox series, Jamie Belz unpacks the science of content overload, how dopamine-driven input loops sabotage focus, and why consuming too much information is quietly destroying your energy and your health. With insights from neuroscience, the Foundations of Health, and practical workshop steps.   We'll talk about why your mind feels scattered, why your body feels stuck in survival mode, and why your health foundations—digestion, blood sugar, sleep, stress, and movement—can't fully reset when you're drowning in constant input.   This isn't about doing more. It's about recognizing what's stealing your focus and sabotaging your biology. And most importantly—it's about learning how to reclaim your attention so you can think clearly, rest deeply, and finally see your body respond the way you want it to.   If you've been feeling "dizzy busy" and like you're slowly fading under the weight of too much noise, this episode will be your first step toward breathing again.   ___________________   After listening, come back for these "pick your own adventure" action steps:   Tech-Free Meal — Make at least one meal per day phone-free and TV-free. Notice the difference in digestion, conversation, and presence. Screen-Free Morning Start — No screens for the first 30–60 minutes after waking. Replace with stretching, prayer, journaling, or simply being quiet with your coffee. Sleep Reset — Turn off all screens at least one hour before bed and replace with reading, light stretching, or talking with someone in your house. Digital Sabbath — Pick one half-day (or full day if brave!) this week where you intentionally go without TV, social media, or streaming. Prune the Feed — Unfollow, unsubscribe, or mute 10 accounts, channels, or subscriptions that don't serve your health, peace, or purpose. Notification Audit — Turn off all non-essential notifications for the week. No more Pavlovian dings pulling at your nervous system. Replacement Habit — Every time you feel the urge to scroll, swap it with one Foundation of Health-aligned action: drink water, walk outside, deep breathe, or prep a healthy snack. Family Challenge — Try one screen-free family activity this week: board games, a walk, cooking together, or even sitting in the living room without the TV. Digital Curfew — Set a hard stop each night where the phone goes on the charger in another room. Give your nervous system permission to downshift. Track the Scroll — Keep a small notebook or notes app log this week. Every time you catch yourself scrolling mindlessly, jot down time + feeling. Awareness is the first step to reclaiming energy.   *NOTE: We are NOT trying to drive you to more screens, but these are the comedy bits Jamie mentioned - - - because sometimes, laughter IS the best medicine. :-) Nate Bargatze - SNL - George Washington's Dream Nate Bargatze - SNL - George Washington's Dream 2     Please share this with someone who might need to hear it.   Don't forget to hit subscribe!

Regenerative agriculture is currently all the rage these days in some circles. With a broad range of practices that can be classified as regenerative, it still can feel like a mushy term that means different things to different people (which is actually by design).

Walnut scale is a minute insect pest that can, if populations build high enough and kill fruiting wood. It can do this by directly allowing pathogens entry into walnut wood, or by weaking branches, making them more vulnerable to infection.

Even though it’s late summer, many Pennsylvanians still have gardening on their minds—and plenty of questions, too. While spring is often thought of as the main planting season, horticulturalist Erica Jo Shaffer says this time of year is far from the end of gardening. In fact, there’s still a lot you can do to keep your garden thriving into fall and beyond.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We know pistachios, and we love to eat them. Despite pistachio ice cream being the objectively best way to consume this nut , the majority of pistachios are sold in-shell. Have you ever wondered how those shells split? In this episode, Phoebe sits down with Shuxiao (Susan) Zhang and Georgia Drakakaki, two of the authors of a recently published study on the mechanisms behind pistachio shell splitting. They discuss how the cells of a shell enable splitting, whether kernel size really does impact split percentage, and why Golden Hills has a higher split percentage than Kerman.Come to an upcoming extension meeting!In the Sacramento Valley: North Sac Valley Groundwater and SGMA is on Tuesday, June 24Save the date for Prune Research Tour Part 2 on Tuesday, July 15 The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are the speaker's own and do not represent the views, thoughts, and opinions of the University of California.

In this episode of Down the Garden Path, Joanne Shaw speaks with author Susan Poizner about her latest book, Fruit Tree Pruning: The Science and Art of Cultivating Healthy Fruit Trees.  About Susan Poizner Susan Poizner is an award-winning author, journalist, urban orchardist, and fruit tree care educator based in Toronto, Canada. She trains arborists, master gardeners, and community and home orchardists in fruit tree maintenance through in-person workshops, online courses, and webinars. Her books include Grow Fruit Trees Fast, Growing Urban Orchards, Fruit Tree Grafting for Everyone and Fruit Tree Pruning. Here are some of the topics discussed in this episode: Fruit Tree Pruning and Care Pruning techniques for both mature and newly planted fruit trees How to approach neglected trees Susan mentions her previous book on fruit tree grafting and discusses whether homeowners should be encouraged to plant fruit trees, given the maintenance involved. Planting a fruit tree is a long-term commitment Avoid impulse purchases at garden centres Research disease-resistant varieties suitable for your climate and order from specialist fruit tree nurseries Start with younger, bare-root trees that can be shaped through pruning rather than older potted trees The importance of proper site selection, ensuring full sun and space for root growth Susan recommends annual mulching with compost to nourish the tree and advises against planting other plants directly under the tree Pruning timing: wait a year for transplanted potted trees, but prune bare-root trees immediately upon planting in spring Fruit Tree Pruning Basics The importance of pruning fruit trees from the day they are planted The first three years of formative pruning are crucial for shaping the tree's structure Two main tree shapes: central leader (Christmas tree shape) and vase-shaped (goblet) Remove healthy branches to improve air circulation, sunlight penetration, and fruit quality Thin fruit to ensure better size and flavour For mature trees, focus on improving air circulation by removing congested branches, limiting removal to 20-25% of the living canopy per year Prune after blossom time to avoid disease spread and encourage the tree to invest energy in fruiting buds rather than new growth Fruit tree pruning is a DIY activity that anyone can learn, emphasizing that even arborists often lack specific training in fruit tree care Learn proper pruning techniques before hiring professionals Use the right tools, such as Japanese handsaws and pole pruners, and maintain them properly Conduct a soil test before planting fruit trees and use compost for regular feeding, with occasional foliar sprays like diluted blackstrap molasses to boost tree health Susan recommends a dormant spray of lime sulphur and dormant oil in early spring before bud break as a preventative measure against pests and diseases Fruit Tree Education and Community Fruit trees are generous, providing food for generations with a single planting Susan shares her experience at community cherry harvesting events Pests and critters: With proper planning, there's usually enough fruit for both humans and animals  Susan mentions her books on fruit tree care, including titles on pruning, fast-growing techniques, urban orchards, and grafting, which can be found on her website orchardpeople.com or on Amazon.

Just another day working with Kelly.

The Five Verbs of Faith: How Christ Shapes the Christian Life The Gospel message today centers on Jesus' powerful promise: “If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish and it will be done for you.” But this promise comes with a condition . . . that we remain in Him and allow His words to dwell in us. To remain in Jesus is not a momentary feeling or a Sunday obligation; it means to make a home in Him, to live in constant communion with Him. Jesus uses the image of the vine and the branches to describe our relationship with Him. This image outlines the Christian journey using five key actions: Remain, Bear, Prune, Wither, and Burn. 1. Remain: This means to dwell, to abide, to be rooted in Christ daily. 2. Bear fruit: The visible fruits are not achievements, but spiritual qualities — love, peace, patience, kindness, and self-control — that flow from remaining in Christ. 3. Prune: Even fruitful branches are pruned — trials and challenges refine us, making us more fruitful. It is a necessary and loving part of spiritual growth. 4. Wither: When we disconnect from Christ, our spiritual life slowly fades. We lose joy, peace, and the desire for prayer. 5. Burn: A branch that continues apart from the vine is eventually lost — this represents the spiritual death that comes from separation from God. The message reminds us that unanswered prayers may not mean God has failed us. Instead, they call us to examine whether we are truly abiding in Christ. When we remain in Him, our desires align with His . . . and what we ask is shaped by His will. This is not a blank check, but a divine alignment. True discipleship means letting Christ live in us so deeply that what we seek is what He already wills to give. Listen to this Meditation Media. Listen to … The Five Verbs of Faith: How Christ Shapes the Christian Life ---------------------------------------------------------------- Jesus Teaches the People by the Sea: French Artist and Painter: James Tissot: 1886 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Gospel Reading: John 15: 1-8 First Reading: Acts 15: 1-6 ---------------------------------------------------------------- A Quote from the Homily The moment we abide in Christ our will, our desires also bend towards his desires. So we desire what the vine desires, we ask what the vine is going to give us more, especially those that we need. Not those that we want. And if we abide in him and his words abide in us, our desires are his desires, and it is from this that we receive because they are his desires
