Danica Eyler on Pruning for Purpose

In this heartfelt episode of Linking Arms, host Nadine Dyer sits down with Danica Eyler, wife, mom, attorney, magistrate judge, and candidate for Hamilton Superior Court 8, to talk about “Pruning for Purpose.”

Danica opens up about her early life growing up with young parents, the challenges of a turbulent family dynamic, and the independence she was forced to develop at a young age. From buying her own bed and paying her own bills as a teenager to moving out before high school graduation, Danica reflects on how those difficult seasons shaped her character, resilience, and faith.

She shares how her journey from a small southern Indiana town to becoming an attorney and now running for judge was marked by constant pruning—seasons where God removed comfort to prepare her for greater purpose. Despite hardship, she views those moments as part of her spiritual refinement, preparing her to serve others with empathy and integrity in both her personal and professional life.

As the conversation closes, Danica offers encouragement to women navigating hard seasons: to trust that God uses everything for good, even when it feels unfair or overwhelming. The pruning, she reminds listeners, is never wasted—it’s part of the equipping for the purpose God has ahead.
