In this vulnerable solo episode, Blake shares an unplanned mid-year reflection after losing a recorded interview—an unexpected gap that turned into sacred space for recalibration. She dives deep into how her 2025 word, “Let there be fruit,” has shown up not in productivity or accolades, but in the painful, refining work of pruning identity idols—like hustle, performance, and external validation. From mourning a drop in Instagram engagement to laying down beloved roles and shifting from constant external processing to deeper intimacy with God, this season has been a crash course in obedience, slowness, and surrender. Blake talks about the beauty of letting go, the discomfort of facing what she's built her worth on, and the surprising fruit of joy and gentleness that has begun to bloom in its place. If you've found yourself exhausted, overextended, or wondering why abiding feels so hard, this episode will meet you in that wilderness and remind you that the pruning always precedes the fruit. In this episode, you'll be able to… Understand how unexpected pruning can reveal hidden identity idols like hustle, performance, and people-pleasing. Learn how slowing down created space for deeper intimacy with God, increased discernment, and healthier habits of processing. Be encouraged to embrace the discomfort of refinement as necessary for lasting spiritual growth and fruitfulness.

Summer in 2025 is here - and after one of the sunniest and driest Springs on record, we enter the long days and sultry nights with the garden looking glorious but always looking to the horizon for a little bit of rain to keep things looking green and lush. Herbaceous borders are set to maximum colour, vegetable beds seem to multiply in growth weekly and the gardeners tan is ever present. So enjoy the long summer days, take some time to appreciate time in your garden and join the Talking Heads pair as they continue to look after the spaces they are in charge of, as well as enjoying their gardens at home.Well, who would have thought that Lucy Chamberlain would get hooked on tropical plants, or that Saul Walker would be munching his way through lettuces and sweet peppers in the quest for edible perfection? But, that's what you can find happening in the life of two curious professional gardeners. The duo have also been fighting the never-ending battle of weeds, Lucy flexes her Niwake shears, and Saul peers into his wheelbarrow for a detailed weather report.

Presented by Lauren Stibgen What is clear is that as followers of Jesus Christ we are called to handle conflict differently. In verse 1 of John 16, Jesus says to his disciples, all this I have told you so that you will not fall away. Why is this significant? This singular verse follows John 15, and Jesus teaching about abiding. Just as we discussed earlier this week, Jesus knew we would face conflict. In fact, he is even more specific about this conflict in John 15:18. Jesus reminds us that if the world hates us know that it hated him before it hated you or me. Now let's put this together. Jesus wants us to abide, because he knows we will need him. He knows we need his love, his friendship, his counsel and his joy. The conflicts in our day to day are heavy, but sometimes our Father is using these conflicts to help us to bear more fruit for his Kingdom. Yes, I said it. God uses these conflicts to grow us! John 15:2 states, every branch that does bear fruit he prunes that it will bear more fruit. Pruning is a verb meant to trim by cutting away dead or overgrown branches or stems, especially to increase fruitfulness and growth. Sometimes conflict happens to remove things from our lives that don't belong. That could be at work too. God can use these moments to shine a light of our need for a greater reliance or abiding with him. Another word used in these verses in place of abide is remain. Remain or stay. How often are we not remaining with Jesus? Are we wandering too far from the perfect, life-giving vine of Jesus Christ? This is the vine of perfect love—a vine that says we can ask whatever we wish in Jesus' name! A vine that doesn't consider us servants but friends. A vine that apart from, we can do nothing. Don't ever forget this. Apart from Jesus we can do nothing. This means conflict. We should not engage in conflict without seeking Jesus. Now, conflict isn't the only pruning God uses in our lives, but surely when we are in the midst of conflict, God's number one goal for us is how we seek him in the trial!
Join Jill for the five-year anniversary of Be YOU - a special live podcast event celebrating 300 episodes of the podcast - on Saturday, October 25th from 1–5 p.m. in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Tickets are selling fast at jillherman.com/beyou, and discounted rooms are available at a boutique hotel right next door! Jill spends time this week exploring over-giving and the importance of pruning relationships and commitments in your life, sharing personal experiences when she realized that she had been giving too much of herself to certain people and businesses without receiving the same level of attention in return. She likens this idea to tending a garden when she had neglected her own container garden and allowed it to become overgrown. Just as the flowers were "begging to be pruned," she realized that in her own life, certain relationships and obligations were draining her energy. Jill shares examples of reaching out to a business only to be disappointed when they declined to sponsor her event, and she reflects on family relationships in which she felt the giving was one-sided. In these cases, she decided that it was time to cut away the excess and focus her time and energy on more reciprocal relationships. On the other hand, though, she also shares a story of a friendship in which she initially felt hurt by a lack of reciprocation, but upon further reflection, she realized that her friend was actually kind in other ways. This realization allowed her to let go of the resentment and appreciate the relationship for what it was. Ultimately, Jill is discussing the importance of self-care and being more particular with your time and energy, encouraging listeners to take inventory of their relationships and commitments and to have the courage to prune away the ones that are draining rather than nourishing. She suggests this can be a powerful act of self-love and kindness, allowing you to show up more fully for the people who truly matter! Show Notes: [01:29] - Even though giving feels natural and joyful, Jill has realized that it's quietly draining when rarely reciprocated. [05:30] - Jill reflects on how it hurt when generosity wasn't returned, revealing that she subconsciously hoped for appreciation in exchange. [07:15] - Eventually, even pure-hearted giving begs the question: will they ever give back? [09:12] - Jill admits to having misjudged one friend and also finally stopped chasing a family member. [11:12] - Support can come from surprising places, like a childhood friend who buys ten VIP tickets. [12:56] - After giving a company $200K in business, their refusal to sponsor Jill truly stung. [15:29] - After some deep reflection, Jill chose to stop supporting those who never truly showed up in return. [17:25] - Without pruning, everything weakens, and offshoots drain the flowers just like distractions drain us. [19:57] - Jill argues that by trimming relationships and distractions, we protect our energy and grow into our full potential. [22:28] - Sometimes, the kindest thing that you can do is to unapologetically withdraw. [24:23] - True self-honesty means examining everything (relationships, habits, even screen time) and deciding on what needs to go. [25:20] - Don't forget about the upcoming Be YOU event in October!

In continuing with our segment on pruning under the umbrella topic of abounding fruitfulness, we arrive in this teaching at another way the Vinedresser prunes His vines to bring about even greater fruitfulness. This may be one of the most difficult tests ever, but it is one that has the potential to radically transform the lives of those who submit themselves to this more advanced level of pruning.
Presented by Lauren Stibgen As a follower of Jesus Christ, I have thought a lot about what God wants me to do with conflict, and I've realized I can only control how I react and engage. I can't control the other person or people with whom I may be in conflict. I have thought about different types of conflict, and while all require personal engagement, there are some in business that boil down to contracts and paperwork and have nothing to do with an interpersonal spat between two people. In both circumstances, God calls us to walk in a manner that reflects our kingdom status as we walk as ambassadors at work and in this world. Conflicts at work can be weighty. They can impact you personally, and they can impact an organization's culture. Conflicts can ruin long-standing relationships and creative divides that close a business for good—especially a family-owned business. But one thing I learned about conflict, especially as a believer in Jesus Christ, is that God uses conflict to prune me. He uses these moments, whether personal or in business, to make me better for his kingdom. John 15:2 states: every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will bear more fruit. Pruning is a verb meant to trim by cutting away dead or overgrown branches or stems, especially to increase fruitfulness and growth. Pruning is good. Pruning is meant to help you and me do more for the kingdom. Pruning is meant to show us what to do more or less of. Pruning can remove people- it may even remove a job. I was curious about workplace conflict statistics, and I learned that at the high end, statistics state that 85% of employees report conflict at work. A study from the Peaceful Leaders Academy estimates that employees spend an average of 33.3 minutes a day in negative discussions about other colleagues! Even in a small company, let's say 25 people, this results in 13.875 hours of time spent in potential conflict! Of employees who report conflict, 57% of them have seen this escalate to the level of physical altercation! A recent Harvard Business Review article reports that most conflicts at work are caused by differing perspectives or different personalities. I have learned that you can't manage what you can't measure, and apparently measuring conflict is important! We cannot avoid conflict, but we can strive for peace with others. What does this peacemaking look like and how do we do it? As we look at resolving conflict through our biblical lens, is it possible that others can align with us if they don't believe what we do? The answer is mostly yes, and sometimes, no. However, if we are honest, even conflict with other believers can go unresolved. The answer is still sometimes yes and sometimes no. Matthew 5:9 tells us: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the children of God.” One of my all-time favorite books is The Peacemaker by Ken Sande. I have had this book since 2007 on my shelf and find that I have referenced it many times over the years to describe the good and bad of handling conflict. Sande's visual of what he calls the slippery slope of conflict outlines what he calls peace-making, peace-faking and peace-breaking. Of course, the goal is to be in peace-making mode, but what about the other end of this spectrum? Peace-faking is described as an escape response to conflict with the ultimate response of suicide. Peace-breaking is described as an attack response to conflict with the ultimate end of murder. I just mentioned that 57% of employees have seen a conflict escalating to a physical altercation; let's think about this as peace-breaking. Obviously, this is an attack response and is on the slippery slope to something even worse. What are the roots of most conflicts? I just mentioned the Harvard Business Review which said that differing perspectives and differing personalities cause most conflict, but it is much more specific than this.

Long-pole hedge cutters, brushcutters, leaf blowers and strimmers are all essential daily kit for professional gardeners.

Lucy in dry Essex is, however, extremely used to these conditions and gives us a few hints and tips on plants to grow in the dry. Also a lot of pruning going on including the topiary, so appropriately the Henchman Topiary Awards have been announced - with some fantastical animals being created by artful pruning.

Today we dove into a topic we've been talking a lot about ever since we became parents of three kids and that's “pruning” in our lives. After we became a family of five we really had to sit down and figure out what was the best use of our time and take a look at our top priorities. We ended up having several things we knew we needed to cut out for the sake of the goals we have for our family, marriage and career. We've talked so much about this topic and we would love to hear if you can relate :) We hope this episode inspires you to re-evaluate what's really important to you and align your time and energy with those priorities.

That's exactly what Tommy Ryan, co-founder and CEO of ThreeWill, does—bringing a whole new meaning to “cultivating culture.” In this down-to-earth yet deeply insightful episode, Tommy shares how tending to soil and people aren't as different as you think. From Microsoft collaboration strategies to pulling weeds with intention, we explore the intersection of tech, teamwork, and tomatoes. If you're a business leader seeking grounded strategies for leadership, resilience, and authentic connection—this episode will grow on you. Tommy's approach to leadership is rooted in nature, values, and community. You'll hear how his passion for farming informs the way he builds teams, scales productivity, and fosters collaboration. Plus, learn how he turned his backyard garden into a local produce hub and business wisdom into a widely followed LinkedIn newsletter, “SOwing Success.” This episode isn't just food for thought—it's soul food for business leaders ready to do work that matters. Key Takeaways: Leadership isn't about control—it's about cultivation. Regenerative farming teaches business lessons in resilience, renewal, and timing. Shared values create trust and strengthen company culture. Community is built one microgreen (or meaningful conversation) at a time. Technology solutions must align with human needs and purpose. You can connect better with people by leading with your personal passion. Pruning isn't just for plants—it's vital in business and personal growth. Storytelling and metaphors from nature can simplify complex business ideas. Being intentional about how we work together fuels long-term success. Business can (and should) be rooted in humanity.

In this episode of Eat Don't Compete, I unpack what real discipleship looks like—and why it's more than just mentorship or role modeling. Discipleship is intentional. It's spiritual. And it's a lifelong process. Dr. Eric Mason said that discipleship is “lifelong process of learning and following Jesus, striving to live a life that reflects His teaching and character.” This episode was important to me because I had the opportunity to reflect on my personal journey and how I was being discipled long before I even had the language for it. For many of us, the people who've poured wisdom into us over the years may not have called it “discipleship”—but if they were teaching us to walk more like Christ, isn't that exactly what it was? We explore what it means to honor those who came before us while walking in deeper revelation, and why we must resist the temptation to get ahead of ourselves when we receive new knowledge. Grace is essential. I also dive into the three key pillars of discipleship outlined in the title): Community – We are not formed in isolation. Don't let the enemy trick you out of the benefits of living in community. Correction – True love tells the truth. Pruning was always meant for long-term growth, rather than short-term comfort. Commitment – Discipleship is daily, not just seasonal. Without the sacrifice of commitment, there comes a lack of appreciation. Commit to God and commit to being discipled, being a disciple and discipling others. Three questions came up as a revelation that I believed the Lord wanted me to meditate on as I journeyed with him and initially began to learn more about discipleship. (1) Who am I as a disciple; (2) How am I being discipled; and (3) Who am I discipling? I believe He wanted me to share these with you today to evaluate where you are in relation to where he wants to take you. Be open to what he wants to say to you. Scriptures covered include: Matthew 28:19–20 – The Great Commission and our call to make disciples. John 8:31 – Comparing the AMP and MSG versions to reveal deeper meaning in abiding in truth. John 15:8 (NLT) – What it means to bear fruit that multiplies through others. This is a soul-shaping conversation for anyone growing in faith, spiritual maturity, or walking out their assignment as a disciple of Christ.
