In this inspiring episode, Melissa Alexander shares her powerful journey from corporate burnout to building a life of freedom, fulfillment, and purpose through entrepreneurship.
Melissa opens up about the moment she realized that the traditional path — career, retirement plan, “success” by society’s standards — wasn’t bringing her joy. Through home business ownership, she discovered not just time and money freedom, but something even greater: emotional and spiritual abundance.
💡 In this conversation, we explore:
Breaking free from the corporate grind and rewriting your life story
How Melissa’s mother inspired her to pursue business ownership
The deeper meaning of abundance — peace of mind, happiness, and fulfilling relationships
The importance of persistence, patience, and vision when building your dreams
Why it’s never too late to start over — including the story of Melissa’s mentor, Belinda Santor, who rebuilt her life and business at age 50 and created lasting success
This episode is a must-watch for anyone feeling stuck, burned out, or wondering if it’s too late to chase the life you really want.

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.
