Hey friends, Chase here.
Ever feel like life's just… happening to you?
You wake up, check your phone, go through the motions. Weeks blur into months. You're busy but not fulfilled. Productive but not progressing.
Here's the hard truth:
If you're not intentional about what you're building, you'll drift.
And drift leads to regret.
But here's the good news:
You can choose to stop drifting—today. You can start building what actually matters most to you.
In this episode, I break down 10 core principles for doing just that. These aren't quick hacks or lofty theories. They're hard-won lessons from world-class performers, artists, and makers who've mastered their craft and their lives.
Here's a taste of what we get into:
- Why simplicity beats complexity every time (stop overcomplicating your goals)
- How to harness resistance instead of fighting it
- Why passion isn't optional—it's fuel for the hard stuff
- The hidden cost of "bad" practices you don't even realize you're repeating
- How to ditch autopilot and consciously design your days
The big idea?
You are what you practice. Every choice, every habit, every action is shaping your future. The question is: are you practicing the life you want—or one you'll want to escape?
This isn't about doing more. It's about doing what matters. On purpose.
So take a breath. Look around. And ask yourself: What am I really building?
This episode will help you answer—and take the first steps toward it.
Until next time—stay intentional, and keep creating.

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.
