The Power of Pruning — Making Space for Who You’re Becoming

The Intentional Mind ™ Podcast - Career Clarity, Motivation, Energy and Intentional Living Tips for Purpose-Driven Professionals

257 - There comes a point in every growth season where you realize not everything can come with you. Whether it’s a commitment, a project, a friendship, or even a mindset, you start to feel the pull to let go of what’s draining your energy so you can redirect it toward what really matters. That’s the essence of the pruning season.

In this episode, we’re talking about what it means to be in a pruning season and why it’s actually a sign of growth, not failure. You’ll learn how to identify what’s no longer aligned, release what’s stealing your energy, and create the boundaries that make room for your next level.

It’s not always pretty. Pruning can be uncomfortable, uncertain, and even painful at times, but it’s how you make space for the fruit you actually want to grow.

If you’re a high achieving woman or mom juggling a lot, this one’s for you. It’s a permission slip to stop pouring energy into what’s not working and start intentionally cultivating what will.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
• How to recognize when you’re in a pruning season (and not mistake it for a setback)
• The difference between quitting and pruning
• How to create boundaries that protect your peace and energy
• A mindset shift to help you release what’s no longer aligned without guilt
• Real stories from my own pruning season that might just mirror yours
