Last week, Sophia was overtired and started to have a temper tantrum.  She told us that the only thing that can make her stop crying and cure her sadness was a new toy.  In fact, she said that if we got her this new toy she would never be sad again.  Of course, we all know that getting Sophia a toy would not lead to her everlasting happiness, but in this episode Eva really dives into WHY money and the material possessions it can buy can never guarantee your happiness.  Eva borrows some great lessons from Jay Shetty's new book Think Like A Monk, which is one of our favorite books of 2020. Jay draws the following distinction between success and happiness in his book:  "Success is earning money, being respected in your work, executing projects smoothly and receiving accolades.  Happiness is feeling good about yourself, having close relationships, making the world a better place." We believe this is such an important concept to teach our children at a young age.  I know many of our kids (including Eva and Sohpia!) are excited to open their presents this holiday season.  But in this episode, Eva shares why those gifts are not the key to our happiness, and why fulfillment must come from within.  Thank you Jay for the great lesson, and we hope you'll be Eva's guest on the podcast in the not so distant future :)  Show notes at DreamBigPodcast.com/227

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.
