In this episode, we dive into the topic of values, what they are, how they shape who we are, and how understanding them can completely change the way we make decisions and move through life. We often talk about “values,” but rarely stop to define what they truly mean to us. Together, we explore what it means to live in alignment with what matters most, and how one of the most powerful values we can hold is self-respect. Because when we lose sight of our values, we can start to feel resentful.
We talk about how to identify your core values and what they really mean to you, why living out of alignment often leads to burnout and people-pleasing, and how reconnecting with your sense of self through self-respect and boundaries can help you find peace again. There’s also a simple reflection exercise to help you realign with what truly matters.
When we start living by our values, life doesn’t magically get easier, but it over time, we learn and grow from them. We stop chasing approval and start living with intention, confidence, and calm. So grab a notebook or just listen in, and let’s take some time to come hone into what matters most: ourselves.

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.
