We trace the real work of reinvention: why retiring at 62 made sense, how business and academia collide, and what it takes to merge two lives, two careers, and two homes while planning a custom build. The theme is fit over status, and compromise as a daily practice.

A coffee shop meet-up, a late arrival, and a pair of good shoes set the scene—but the real story began when we chose honesty over comfort. After Yom Kippur, we split a slice of pie and opened a chapter most people hide: years of abuse that ended in front-page headlines, a courtroom that felt surreal, and a family learning to breathe under the weight of judgment. That early disclosure wasn’t a test; it was a signal tha...
We share how a six-hour first date led to a late-in-life partnership rooted in honesty, faith, and humor. Along the way, we map career pivots, health upgrades, and the courage to talk about trauma, hormones, and hope.

What if the second half of life isn't a slow fade... but a fierce beginning?

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.
