If your business falls apart without you, you don’t have a business. You have a job you can't quit.


Let’s get real. Too many entrepreneurs are trapped inside the very businesses they built. And here’s the hard truth: if you have to be there for your business to run, you haven’t scaled. You’ve stalled.


In this episode of the Be Unmessablewith the podcast, I sit down with Allison Maslan, Wall Street Journal best-selling author of Scale or Fail, who has helped hundreds of founders escape the burnout trap by building companies that run without them at the center. She drops gold on what it really takes to scale, and it’s not hustle. It’s strategy, vision, leadership, and systems.


We talk about:

✅ Why most entrepreneurs sabotage their own growth

✅ The mindset shift required to go from solopreneur to CEO

✅ How to build a business that gives you freedom, not just more responsibility

✅ The number one thing founders must give up in order to scale sustainably

✅ Practical steps to become the visionary (instead of the bottleneck)


Allison’s journey from overwhelmed founder to powerhouse business mentor will light a fire under you and give you the tools to finally build a business that supports your life, instead of consuming it.


This isn’t just about growth. It’s about freedom. Freedom to create. Freedom to lead. Freedom to not be the one holding everything together.

Ruthie's Table 4

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.
