This episode is a wake-up call wrapped in warmth.
Dr. Emily Jacobs and I dive deep into the unspoken cost of overgiving, the roots of people-pleasing, and the hard-but-holy work of choosing a different story.
From generational patterns to redefining wealth, self-worth, and success, we explore what it really means to make empowered choices that serve your future (not your guilt).
Key Takeaways:
-People-pleasing starts early, but it’s your responsibility to unchoose it.
-Self-sacrificing can easily become self-sabotage… and that’s when you stay stuck.
-Transformation usually isn’t as painful as staying where you are.
From chasing mom’s approval to choosing a life of peace, Dr. Emily Jacobs shares how burnout, boundaries, and brave decisions shaped her evolution. This episode is packed with mindset shifts, light-hearted honesty, and powerful reframes about what we’re really choosing and why it matters.

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.
