The more food rules you follow, the more you want to break them. Sound familiar?
In this episode, Nikki T dives deep into why emotional eating isn’t a sign of weakness—it’s a powerful signal from your body that something deeper is going on. If you’ve spent years stuck in the cycle of restriction, rebellion, and guilt, this conversation will show you a completely new way forward.
Discover how to:
- Understand the real reason emotional eating shows up (it’s not what you think)
- Recognize the difference between physical and emotional hunger
- Connect with your inner child and uncover what you’re truly craving
- Rebuild self-trust so food loses its power over you—without counting, logging, or restricting
- Find lasting alignment with your body after 40, even as hormones shift
This episode isn’t about another diet or set of rules—it’s about freedom, trust, and learning to enjoy food (and yourself) again.
Whether you’re tired of emotional eating, exhausted from dieting, or ready to feel at peace with food, this one’s for you.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why diet rules backfire and create cravings
- A simple question to ask yourself before every snack or meal
- Three steps to build self-trust around food
- How to listen to your body’s wisdom after 40

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.
