In this empowering episode, we sit down with Marta Mielcarek – designer, mentor, international speaker, and CEO of Glitter Key – to explore what it really means to align purpose with profession and build a business (and a life) you love.
Marta shares her deeply personal journey of losing everything – her company, her contracts, even coffee shop job applications – and how that rock-bottom moment became the catalyst for radical transformation. She reveals the powerful mindset shift that allowed her to stop “painting dead grass green,” release scarcity thinking, and invite true abundance into her life.
We dive into:
💡 Abundance Mindset – what it means and how to actually embody it
💡 Resilience Through Rejection – learning to trust redirection instead of forcing what’s not working
💡 Radical Thought Control – staying focused when life feels chaotic
💡 Grounded Growth – being honest with yourself without faking positivity
💡 Collaboration Over Competition – why Marta sees herself as her only real rival
Marta’s story is a powerful reminder that your worth doesn’t come from your income, your partner, or outside validation – it comes from you. If you’re navigating a tough season in life or business, this episode will inspire you to trust yourself, stay grounded, and keep moving forward.

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.
