Ep 110: Mothering While Black, Brilliant, & Burned Out: A Mental Health Check-In
Burnout isn’t just about being tired — it’s about losing yourself in the midst of being everything to everyone. In this solo episode, I’m sharing how the INSPIRE Joy Method can help high-achieving women — especially Black wives and moms — reclaim their peace, purpose, and joy.
Drawing from my new book, Inspire Joy for the Wife Mom Boss, I’ll walk you through how to apply the seven pillars of the INSPIRE Joy Method — Integrity, Nurture, Stability, Purpose, Intimacy, Resilience, and Empowerment — to your own life so you can shift from stress to joy.
We’ll talk about:
✨ How to recognize the signs of burnout before it takes over
✨ Why “self-care” is more than bubble baths and spa days
✨ Practical strategies to restore your mental, physical, financial, aspirational, and social health
✨ How to stop running on empty and start living in full empowerment
This is your reminder that joy isn’t selfish — it’s necessary.

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.
