Most entrepreneurs quit before they hit traction. Trent Carter shares the raw truth about building in healthcare, risking it all, and why scaling is less about strategy and more about grit.
📌What’s covered:
- The contrarian reason why having no MBA and no business background may actually give you an edge.
- How Trent went six weeks without a single client—and why most entrepreneurs would’ve quit too early.
- The mindset shift that made him go from provider to CEO (and what every founder gets wrong about delegation).
- The work ethic philosophy that beats startup capital, connections, or credentials.
- Why scaling fast is less about opportunity—and more about learning to walk the line between profit and public good.

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.
