How can we connect with our innate creativity when we have so many responsibilities as mamas? Todays mama, Brittany L. Bergman, author and mama, is going to tell us why we shouldn't lose sight of our identities as women.
She is an author whose goal is to provide connection to moms who don't want to lose sight of their identities as women. A storyteller at heart, she invites women into her life and wants them to feel seen and known through her words. Brittany is a mom of two kids and has been married to her husband Dan for 7 years. She's the author of the book Expecting Wonder: The Transformative Experience of Becoming a Mother. By day, she is a copy editor of nonfiction books at a publishing house.
Pregnancy and motherhood are not simply about adding children to our families. Through the process of becoming mothers, we are fundamentally transformed into new people. Sometimes this can process can feel like loss or grief, but we also find so much joy and goodness when we embrace what this change has for us. My goal is to help women reflect on their own process of becoming mothers—not a one time event, but something that is still unfolding in them—recognize what they bring to the table/the unique mother they are, and trust that they are exactly the mother their kids need.
To Brittany, being a Soul Mamma means honoring her own desires, ambition, and gifts, and not stuffing them down just because she has small children. I want to set an example for my kids, especially her daughter, of a woman who goes after what she wants for the betterment of herself and her family. Brittany believes that when we honor our needs and desires, we are better moms. For me that meant choosing to write a book while pregnant with my second child. It was a dream that couldn't wait, and while it was incredibly challenging, it was absolutely worth it.

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.
