Today, I’m thrilled to introduce two extraordinary guests: Mercedes and Anastasia Korngut. As teen co-founders of Small Bits of Happiness, Mercedes and Anastasia are on a mission to help people—especially teens—find joy in everyday moments, build happy habits, and foster stronger connections between parents and teens. Their work has captured attention across North America, from their uplifting podcast Hack Your Happiness, where they interview celebrities, Olympians, and changemakers, to their innovative products designed to boost daily mood and well-being.
Mercedes, the producer and co-host of Hack Your Happiness, is also a writer and editor, sharing insights on happiness and connection in various magazines. Anastasia, a talented fashion designer, leads the creative vision at Small Bits of Happiness, focusing on intentional innovation and community impact.
Together, these sisters are redefining what it means to create positive change as young entrepreneurs in a challenging world. Get ready to be inspired by their passion, creativity, and practical hacks for happiness.

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.
