To kick off season 2 of The Nudging Financial Behaviour Podcast, we’re talking about a big topic – risk. Risk aversion and risk tolerance are two big concepts that you need to wrap your head around if you want to understand one of the strongest pulls on how and why you make specific decisions about your money. 

To help us unpack risk tolerance, we have high performance coach, trainer and trading consultant Steve Ward as our first guest. Steve has written many books on the subject of risk, as well as running his own business that helps people to be better traders – Performance Edge Consulting. 

This season, we’re actually doing a miniseries on risk and loss aversion, and this is the start of the discussion. We’ve got a lot to go through, and it’s going to be fascinating!

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.
