Some days, the world feels like too much. 

The news, the stress, the noise. 

You start to wonder if you’ll ever feel right again. 

Then, out of nowhere, something lands in your lap that reminds you of what really matters. 

That’s what today’s conversation delivers: the exact words you need to hear if you’re feeling stuck in that negative place. 

In this deeply personal and moving episode, Mel sits down with one of the most extraordinary thinkers and poets of our time: 

Mark Nepo, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Awakening, which has changed millions of lives – including Mel’s and her husband Chris’. 

Mark’s words have a way of cutting straight to the heart, gently opening something inside you that’s been closed for too long. 

You’ll learn: 

-The two questions that instantly open the door to connection with others and yourself 

-What it really means to follow your heart and how to trust where it’s leading you 

-How to find purpose, peace, and meaning - right where you are 

-How having a daily ritual can ground you when life feels overwhelming 

This episode is not just an interview. It’s exactly the reset you need.

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.
