Kyle Negrete – Living as an Adventure Capitalist
What does it mean to live a life fully awake, fully present, and fully alive? In this inspiring conversation, Kyle Negrete — entrepreneur, founder of mental health startup Kinship, and managing director of Harpeth Group — joins Jake Oswald to share his journey from Wall Street banker to what he calls an “adventure capitalist.”
Kyle opens up about:
- Leaving a comfortable career in New York to spend two years in Haiti
- How solitude and hardship helped him discover who he truly was
- Why character and integrity matter more than fame, money, or talent
- What it means to “emerge” from the sidelines of your own story
- Stepping into a new season of kingship, responsibility, and service
- The mindset shifts behind building one of the most connected networks in the world
- How joy, generosity, and presence can transform every relationship
Kyle’s story is one of courage, hunger, and becoming the kind of person who builds longer tables instead of higher walls. Whether you’re wrestling with doubt, longing for deeper purpose, or simply looking for the next step in your own journey, this episode will challenge and encourage you to live a more integrated life.

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.
