You can’t pray for expansion and then cling to everything that keeps you small.
In this raw and powerful episode of Practically Possible, Lacey Byrd unpacks the truth about growth that most people avoid: scaling your life isn’t about adding more — it’s about releasing what no longer fits.
Through faith-based wisdom, psychology-backed insight, and grounded storytelling, Lacey guides you through the sacred process of refinement — cutting off the habits, people, places, and thought patterns that dilute your direction and drain your capacity.
You’ll learn why most people stay stuck chasing conflicting goals that don’t actually serve their deeper vision, how to recognize the difference between expansion and distraction, and why pruning is often the clearest sign that God is preparing you for more.
If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, scattered, or stuck between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming — this conversation will meet you right there. Expect to feel seen, grounded, and summoned into simplicity, peace, and alignment.
Because expansion doesn’t start with addition. It starts with clarity.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
