In this episode, we’re peeling back the layers of perfection and performance to remind you of one simple truth: There’s no blueprint. No matter what Instagram looks like, no matter what the vision board said, and no matter how detailed the 5-year plan once was — life happens.
We talk about the reality that most people are just out here trying to make it day by day. Behind every curated photo, there’s someone navigating grief, healing from disappointment, pivoting after a plan fell through, or quietly carrying something heavy. And still, they get up, show up, and try again.
You’ll hear reflections on:
• How to let go of the pressure to have it all figured out
• Why it’s okay to change directions when life doesn’t go as planned
• How grief — whether from death, divorce, or dreams deferred — reshapes us, but doesn’t erase us
• The power of self-compassion and letting people live (because we’re all trying)
• Why surviving is sometimes more powerful than thriving
This episode is your permission slip to be human. To move forward even if it looks different than you imagined. To know that even when things break down, you won’t. You can rebuild. You will survive. And yes, you still deserve joy and peace — even in the in-between.
Because the truth is: there’s no perfect path. Just people doing the best they can with what they have, every single day. And that includes 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.
