In this episode, I spoke to Akshay Ruparelia. He is famed as the founder and ex-CEO of Doorsteps.co.uk. He sold over £1 billion in houses over the space of three years, marking him youngest on the Sunday Times Rich List 2018 on asset value. Most recently, in 2021, he was the youngest honoree, featured on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list and he has also become renowned for disrupting the market with a 500% growth in just four years.
In the episode, we dug really deep into:
• How he started his journey from selling sweets at school while caring for his deaf parents, to selling over £1 billion in houses over the space of three years within an extremely short space of time
• How he attracted his first customer on this
• As someone that started a large real estate business, that then pivoted into social enterprise, who then created a web3 company, what motivates him to carry on and gives him purpose.

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.
