How Discipline, Speaking Life, and the Rule of 10 Create Explosive Growth in Faith-Based Leadership and Team Culture
If you’ve ever wondered why your business isn’t growing, what if the real issue isn’t your systems—it’s your people? In this powerful episode, I share a heartfelt conversation I had with my Pops (he’s wise, honest—and yes, blunt)—and how he boiled our biggest business meltdown down to one simple truth: “Build the people and then allow the people to build the business.”
Drawing on the transformative lessons from Proverbs 13, we dive into:
Why discipline over convenience is a non-negotiable.
How speaking life early and often changes a culture (private > public).
The power of the “Rule of 10” — serve one person incredibly well, then leverage the ripple.
Why overcomplicating leadership is the growth killer; simplicity and clarity are the rocket fuel.
Applying biblical wisdom to your team, your mission, and your leadership identity.
👉 If you’re a leader (entrepreneur, team-builder, culture-creator) who’s serious about moving from “just doing business” to “developing people who do business,” this episode is your call-to-action.
Let’s get into it: build the person, then build the profit.
✅ What you’ll walk away with:
A clear mission statement rooted in obedience, not just ambition.
Practical ways to speak life privately → publicly to ignite your team.
How to implement the Rule of 10 to scale without losing soul.
Why the call for discipline isn’t “tough love” — it’s kingdom love.
The real question: How do you build people? (Hint: It starts with 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.
