GUEST RESOURCES
Jessica Sturino Floyd worked in the physical therapy profession for 15 years before becoming a mother of 2 differently wired children. She gave up her career due to a lack of resources available for her autistic son.
During this time, she experienced the isolation and emotional struggle that many caregivers of children with disabilities experience, and discovered the importance of community. She became the Facilitator for the Wake County Chapter of the Autism Society of North Carolina to help improve the lives of autistic individuals, help support their families and educate communities.
Jessica is the proud co-owner of the We Rock the Spectrum sensory gym in Cary NC providing a fully inclusive and understanding space for our differently abled community to learn and grow together.

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.
