What happens when you wake up one day and realize you’ve stopped wanting your own life?
In this deeply vulnerable episode of Your Courageous Life, Kate shares her personal experience with high-functioning depression — what it looked like, how she hid it, and what helped her begin to reconnect with the will to live again. Through honesty, research-backed strategies, and lived experience, she explores the small but radical steps that start to rebuild aliveness: finding support, moving your body, interrupting depression routines, letting go of relationships that drain you, and challenging the narratives that keep you stuck.
If you’ve been going through the motions — functional but hollow — this conversation offers compassion and direction. It’s not about false positivity; it’s about the quiet, courageous work of reclaiming your spark and remembering that depression lies. There is another side, and it’s worth fighting for.

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.
