The Poison Tree: On Discipline, Rot, and Renewal

In this episode, I offer you an exercise, a lens through which you might see yourself more clearly. Imagine your life as a garden. Every relationship, every decision, every path, a flower, a seed, a patch of earth tended by your own hands. But what happens when what you’ve grown begins to rot?

The Poison Tree explores the slow, unseen decay that hides beneath our progress . The habits, the patterns, the quiet poisons that shape our lives. Through the story of a gardener, it invites you to reflect on the balance between grace and violence: grace for the flowers, and violence for the weeds.

💭 What is your poison tree?
