Is it such a crime to want outdoor gear for EVERYONE that looks cute, feels comfy, keeps us safe, and is actually functional?
In this episode, I sat down with Maria Baker, the founder of Nobody’s Princess, a groundbreaking snow apparel brand empowering women through inclusivity and innovation. Maria shares her journey from growing up in Australia to creating a brand that challenges the norms of the snow sports industry.
We discuss the barriers women face in outdoor sports, the importance of size-inclusive and technical gear, and how brands can do better to support all body types. Because everyone deserves safe and functional outdoor apparel.
If you've ever felt excluded from outdoor activities, this episode is for you.

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.
