Let’s be real—networking often gets a bad rap. Too many people treat it like a numbers game. But the best leaders know networking isn’t about collecting contacts—it’s about building meaningful relationships that create opportunities, ideas, and growth.
In this episode, we break down what networking really looks like when done with authenticity and purpose.
We explore: ✅ The mindset shift from “What can I get?” to “What can I give?” ✅ Why strong leaders build networks that outlast titles and roles ✅ How to grow influence by adding value first ✅ Practical strategies for building authentic connections that actually last
If you’ve ever dreaded networking—or felt like you’re doing it wrong—this episode will give you a new perspective and the tools to do it better.

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.
