In this powerful and confronting conversation, Dr. Melissa Sell returns to Here for the Truth for her eighth appearance to explore how modern medical and cultural rituals have severed us from our primal instincts, our intuition, and our innate trust in life. Through the lens of German New Medicine and the Five Biological Laws, we examine how the earliest experiences of infants—from wellness checks to ear piercings to “cry it out” sleep training—can imprint deep patterns of fear, separation, and obedience. This episode is a wake-up call to reclaim our natural intelligence, to see through the conditioning that normalizes harm, and to remember that true health begins with awareness and self-responsibility.

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.
