Shownotes

In this episode of Luminary Leadership Podcast, I am talking about the concept of strategic pruning in leadership and business. I draw parallels between farming and leadership, advocating for the intentional removal of non-essential elements to foster growth and clarity. I share my personal experiences with hardship and how they taught me the value of pruning for better focus and vision. For me the pruning season was thrown at me, but I know being intentional about it will contribute to your growth.

I encourage you to regularly align your actions with core values and vision, and to eliminate tasks that don't serve your ultimate goals. The episode emphasizes proactive pruning as a key to vibrant growth and success.
