In this episode, I break down the unique nutritional challenges we face as women in midlife and how to navigate them without losing your mind (or appetite). Let's face it – the eating strategies that worked in your 30s might be falling flat now as your hormones and metabolism shift. I'll walk you through the four most common nutrition traps that catch us in midlife and share practical, doable alternatives that actually work with your changing body instead of against it.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why "everything in moderation" might be terrible advice for your midlife body and how to figure out which foods actually deserve some boundaries
  • How to break free from the endless cycle of diet dogma and create an approach that works for YOUR unique body
  • The huge difference between smart calorie management and the soul-crushing practice of chronic dieting

Whether you're dealing with stubborn weight gain, energy crashes, or just feeling completely confused by all the conflicting nutrition advice out there, this episode offers a fresh take on reclaiming your plate with confidence during this wild ride we call midlife.

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.
