You can be high-functioning, deeply accomplished, and still feel like you’re unraveling inside.

In this powerful conversation, Heather sits down with Chau Le, a psychiatric nurse practitioner, newest assistant clinical professor at Yale University, DJ, Interior designer, and mother of two, who shares how she rebuilt her life, business, and mindset after experiencing postpartum depression, burnout, and perfectionism.

From overcoming burnout and perfectionism to building structure and honoring her energy, Chau transformed her life. With mindset tools, time-blocking, and permission to lead from peace, she launched her trauma-informed practice.

Her story proves that when you reset your mindset and reconnect to your values, sustainable success follows.

Ruthie's Table 4

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.
