How many times have you heard the term “don’t get your hopes up” when submitting your project to a contest or publishing organization? Whether this is a voice that comes externally, internally, or both, it can certainly throw a curveball in your emotional journey as a creative.
The last thing you need when putting yourself out there is a voice telling you to reign your expectations in. But where do these expectations come from? Are they all negative? And how can they play a role in renewing your life?
In today’s episode we’ll discuss:
Not all expectations are negative. There are empowering expectations that can remind us of our Why.
Why some expectations that may start off positive, can result in holding us back.
Pulling the curtain back on these expectations to reveal narratives that need to be released.
Always remember to be aware of your intentions, and take accountability for the expectations that could make or break your creative journey.

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.
