In this episode of the Be Unmessablewith® podcast, I dive into one of the most overlooked reasons high performers burn out, lose confidence, and quietly betray themselves, their calendars.
If your days look full but at the end of the day you feel wiped out, this one’s for you.
We say we’re busy, but are we actually doing what matters? Your calendar can be a mirror of your values, yet for most people, it’s a web of lies. You schedule the workout you skip, the writing block you scroll through, the “family dinner” you miss for one more email.
Every time you do that, you train your nervous system not to trust you.
After coaching entrepreneurs, founders, and executives for over 39 years, I’ve seen this single pattern quietly destroy more potential than any market crash ever could. When you can’t rely on your own word, your confidence erodes, your creativity collapses, and you start reacting to everyone else’s urgencies instead of creating from your vision.
What you’ll hear in this episode
The Calendar Lie: How overscheduling and broken self-promises create micro-betrayals that compound into burnout.
The Psychology Behind It: Why ignoring your own commitments trains your brain to devalue your goals (‘learned helplessness’ in disguise).
The Truth-Telling Framework: Four steps to turn your calendar from fiction into a mirror of your values and vision.
It’s not about productivity hacks, it’s about HONOR.When your calendar becomes your word, you stop living at the mercy of time and start designing it. That’s what being Unmessablewith® looks like: honoring your vision, your word, and your wellbeing as non-negotiable.

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.
