(Love, a healthy drug) There are so many stereotypes about those who manage addiction or those in recovery from substance abuse. Which asks the question, is this find of a relationship more difficult? Our guest is recovered. What have they uncovered in 25 years?   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?” #thediversityduo #LFLPodcast    https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-licensed-for-love-podcast-96396001/   Or wherever you get your podcast.   When you think about 25 years, that seems like a lot of time to have had the experience of dealing with anything. What does one learn in that amount of time? Or do they learn anything at all? Our guest answers some of these questions and more, pertaining to being recovered from substance abuse.    Substance abuse, recovery, Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous etc.…There are so many stereotypes and judgments when the description of who you are is attached to any one of these words, but wait, is it "who" you are or what you have experienced or managed? We get some real answers from those who have lived it and honestly, the answers may shock you.   What if you've never experienced substance abuse or felt compelled to find numbness or excitement from drugs or in a bottle? Are you still at risk of suffering from addiction and could not being in tuned with what they are be fatal?   Is our grand treasure of a significant other easier to have without having to be transparent about topics like recovery and substance abuse or is the struggle equally real when it comes to affairs of the heart?   Finally, what the hell is farmers.com? Is it like Grinder or Tinder but with lots of flannel involved? And how freaky are those Christian mingle accounts?   You'll laugh and be moved in our first episode of Licensed for Love Podcast Season 2 y'all!

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.
