Ever found yourself picking at the wrong tree for the fruit you desire? That's the heartache shared by a listener and the starting point of our soul-searching journey through the landscape of love and relationships. Together, we peel back the layers on why entering the dating scene with expectations set in stone may not bring the love we seek. Self-love emerges as a cornerstone of discussion; it's the wellspring from which genuine connections flow. This episode is an invitation to refill your own cup and discover how to attract a love that truly resonates with your being.

As we navigate the twists and turns of romance, personal anecdotes illuminate the path. Have you ever compromised your identity for the sake of a relationship, or felt the strain of trying to mold your partner into your ideal? We tackle these issues head-on with four probing questions designed to steer you back to a love that celebrates difference without demanding change. It's a candid examination of the sacrifices we make and the values we must hold dear to ensure our relationships enhance, rather than erode, our true selves.

Communication is the bridge that connects disparate interests within a partnership, and this episode draws from personal tales of anime and shared living spaces to model constructive conversation. We also feature insights from Tom Bilyeu, who embodies the essence of teamwork in a relationship. His story underscores the message that while our individual paths may diverge, the journey is best undertaken with a partner who aligns with our goals and supports our endeavors. Listeners, prepare to rethink your approach to love, as we provide the tools and reflections to cultivate the companionship you yearn for.

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.
