You wanna fly, you got to give up the sh*t that weighs you down. - Toni Morrison

In today's episode, I am revealing a big secret about me that I've carried with me for 16 years: my body image and how weight gain and my weight is centered around my confidence, both in the public realm and in my relationships with others.

I'm super scared to talk about this, but I know so many people out there (women and men) are struggling with their own body image. There are a lot of celebrities and leaders who are thin and fit. And there is a certain stigma around your own weight and body image with regards to love and success.

Yeah, I'm super scared to reveal my secret to you, but I'm also really tired of allowing this to weigh me down in life and in my career. Listen now to know my secret struggles...

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.
