This week my sister Allisyn Lambes joins me for part two of our two-part series on forgiveness, and we’re taking a real, raw deep dive into the toughest kind of all—forgiving yourself. We open up about accepting your past, why self-forgiveness can be so hard, and how to finally break free from what’s holding you back. We’re sharing personal stories, practical steps, and plenty of encouragement to help you step into the peace and freedom you deserve. If you’ve ever struggled to let go of past mistakes, felt weighed down by shame or guilt, or just can’t seem to move forward, this episode is for you.
In this episode:
- Why forgiving yourself is often harder than forgiving others
- Allisyn’s personal story about how shame and guilt can hide deep unforgiveness
- How unresolved issues and blame can pass through generations
- How acceptance can help you heal, find freedom and embrace growth
- Plus, a fun selling challenge game you don’t want to miss!
Here is my favorite quote from this episode:
"Shame and guilt set in after you don't forgive." - Allisyn Lambes

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.
