How important is it to be "authentic" online? And what does that even mean anyway? For me, it depends. 

This solo episode is all about being authentic on social media. I share some insights from Seth Godin on what authenticity actually means. And what it doesn't. 

What I often tell clients I work with, what people share on social media isn't an accident. People share what they want us to see. 

🔹Authenticity online is often misconstrued; it's not just about being unfiltered.

🔹People share intentionally; nothing on social media is by accident.

🔹Oversharing can lead to regret and negative reactions.

🔹It's important to define what is professional, personal, and private in sharing.

🔹Your audience doesn't need to know every detail of your life.

🔹Being authentic means being true to yourself while considering your audience.

🔹Consistency in messaging builds trust with your audience.

🔹Intentional sharing can have a significant impact on engagement.

🔹You can choose what to share based on your comfort level.

🔹It's okay to not share everything, share what you want to.

Ruthie's Table 4

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.
