Sarah traveled the traditional path to success hoping that it would lead to the promised land of joy, purpose, and success. In college, she studied law and quickly jumped into the corporate world to climb the corporate ladder. 

Her drive and ambition were rewarded as she became the Chief Compliance Officer for an international leading fortune 500 pharmaceutical company. 

Sarah had the Instagram lifestyle of a c-suite executive in her full potential basking in the glory of her hard work and drive, but there is more than meets the eye to this story. 

Sarah is not holding back as she shares the raw experiences that led to her darkest moments and eventually her brightest spark of innovation and her reason to breathe. 

We'll Explore: 

  • How burnout and depression affect executives more than we think and the impact it can have on an organization. 
  • What are the signs of burnout? 
  • Why is burnout challenging to talk about? 

You'll Learn: 

  • How to avoid this dark place in your career. 
  • How severe burnout and depression became for Sarah and what she had to do to overcome it and find her reason to breathe again. 
  • How did ten pairs of socks teach Sarah to fail in the most humbling of ways?

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.
