In this episode: We dive deep into the foundations of relationships, self-awareness, and emotional healing. Together with Dr. Margaret Cochran, we explore how childhood experiences shape the way we connect as adults, why family dynamics can lead us to repeat unhealthy patterns, and how to break free from limiting beliefs. You’ll learn practical tools like the “Mississippi” method for emotional regulation, grounding exercises to reset in the moment, and daily gratitude practices that rewire the brain for positivity. This episode is filled with insights and techniques you can start using right away to shift your mindset and create healthier relationships—with yourself and with others.
Meet my guest: Dr. Margaret Cochran is a transpersonal psychologist, licensed clinical social worker, life coach, hypnotherapist, educator, YouTube personality, and author with more than 25 years of clinical experience. She takes a whole-person approach to mental health and wellness, guiding people to step beyond fear, challenge the stories they’ve been told, and embrace new possibilities for their lives. Her compassionate wisdom and practical strategies make this conversation both inspiring and transformational.
Quote/Piece of Advice: Your senses are what allow you to be present in the moment. Not in the past, not worried about what happened, not worrying about what might happen, but just being here.

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.
