At 2:30 in the morning, on the hard floor of a freezing Whittier College dorm room, Kelly discovered what true friendship really looks like.
His best friend Will—brother for over 41 years—rose from the comfort of his warm bed to “help.” But instead of a blanket or a pillow… Will handed Kelly a hand towel.

That night became more than a funny college memory. It turned into a lesson about humility, integrity, and character—the kind ...

Two of my favorite things in the world—De La Soul and God’s Word—came together today with the same exact message: check your ego.

The song Ego Trippin by De La Soul might not make perfect lyrical sense, but it hits in the soul. Why? Because their music always carried this deeper truth: stop trying to be something you’re not, and just own your style. That same theme runs straight through Proverbs 27, which shows us step by step how t...

What do you really want in life?

It’s one of the hardest questions we can face—personally, professionally, spiritually, and financially. And if you don’t have an immediate answer, that’s OK. Most of us don’t. But that’s where the real work begins.

Encouragement isn’t just nice to have—it’s the ultimate unfair advantage in life and business. In this episode of The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas, I share a lesson from my Pops: the one thing we fail at the most and work at the least is communication. Sometimes that communication is a question, other times it’s silence—but most often, it’s the kind word that sparks a fire inside all of us.

    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.
