In this episode: In this solo episode of Real Chat with Kat, I open up about what it really takes to heal, grow, and step into your own power. Drawing from my personal journey of overcoming a decade-long abusive relationship, as well as lessons I’ve observed from past podcast guests, I share practical insights on how to acknowledge your experiences without comparison, break free from old patterns, and create a life that feels authentic.

We explore how media consumption and daily choices influence your mindset, why embracing imperfections leads to deeper self-love, and how personal healing creates ripple effects that impact not only your own life but future generations. This episode is about choosing growth over fear, recognizing the power in your story, and taking small, daily actions that build positivity, resilience, and lasting change.

Quote from the book “ The Mountain is You” by Brianna Wiest

 

Quote/Piece of Advice: Decide where you want to go in life because of you. Not because of what somebody is going to validate for you.

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.
