*Special Replay*
I know that niching down and focusing on one target market can feel extremely nerve wracking. But what if it was the one thing keeping you from reaching clients and customers all around the world?
My guest today, DJ Eric Rhodes, knows the power of niching down, protecting his creative time, and making big bets on himself. It all started with what most people called a foolish move when he ordered all the DJ gear he needed with his student loan money while in college. And while it might have seemed foolish then, it's certainly paid off. Today, Eric has generated over a million followers on TikTok—and turned them into raving fans for his business.
In our conversation, Eric reveals how he finds time to nurture and protect his creative side—and why you must do the same thing if you want to avoid burnout and keep your business growing. Plus, Eric shares a simple, yet overlooked strategy he uses at every wedding he DJs (that often gets him mistaken as a family member!) and how you can apply that same principle to help grow your business. And make sure to stick around till the end—because Eric created a special music mash-up just for our listeners.

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.
