For survivors of childhood trauma, a sense… a reality, of life being unfair and unjust isn’t a new concept…we lived it. But that deep understanding of injustice can often make the world feel even heavier when we see similar patterns play out on a larger scale.
No matter where you are in the world, we all witness this in both small and much bigger, more impactful ways.
And, I know many of you are feeling the uncertainty, powerlessness, or fear of what it all means.
Today I want to share some thoughts and suggestions on how to navigate times that can feel familiar for so many. We’ll explore how to find balance in the face of inequality and injustice, ways to cope with the overwhelm, and how to hold space for our empathy without losing ourselves in it.
Remember, it's okay to feel and care deeply but we don’t have to carry the weight of the world alone. Let’s talk about it. Join the conversation in the comments.

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.
