(Beauty is in the eye of the beholder series) Imagine that you lost all your hair; what would you do? What would your self-esteem be like? Now would you trade each lesson you've learned to get each strand of hair back? Vanity or serenity? Choose... Get over the hump every Wednesday with a new "Heartbeat in Relationship Conversation" episode. Join the Diversity Duo for all the feels and then ask yourself, “Do I judge a book by its cover?” Alopecia areata: Sudden hair loss that starts with one or more circular bald patches that may overlap. This occurs when the immune system attacks hair follicles and may be brought on by severe stress. Our guest the (Ambassador of Love) Laura Duksta wasn't always so loving, especially to herself. Finding out as a young girl that her life would change forever. As with most profound experiences, she really didn't know how much this critical moment would shape who she is today. Laura is very honest about the dark side of her journey, the sex, drugs, and self-loathing type lifestyle. She thought that somehow, this superficial living could fulfill what she was missing internally. So, when did it all change? Where is she now? What inspired her to become a best-selling author of children's books? The Doc half of #thediversityduo lays out a whole new approach to beautiful and as always, there is never enough time in one episode. Attitude seems to be everything and acceptance of who you, are as you are, speaks volumes. Also, leave it to Doc to bring the variety moments like, how did Whoopi Goldberg come into conversation? Finally, we ask Laura to speak to the parents of children who face these moments with their children, the moments of uncertainty, the moments of faith when it's most needed, and ultimately, how we grow together as we learn the valuable lesson (and the title to her book), You Are a Gift to the World.

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.
