In this episode: I’m joined by Danielle Dill, the brilliant mind behind Behind the Scenes Genius, for a deeply honest and inspiring conversation about business, burnout, and building a life on your own terms. Danielle opens up about her personal IVF journey, the emotional toll of her husband’s near-death battle with COVID, and how these life-altering events led to a complete shift in how she approached her business. We talk about the importance of having a website you own—beyond social media—and why putting all your eggs in one basket online can be a risky move for entrepreneurs. Danielle also shares how she gave herself permission to pause, pivot, and rebuild with intention—turning burnout into a breakthrough. From the mindset shifts that helped her through the darkest chapters to the strategic moves she made in her business, this episode is full of real talk, actionable wisdom, and heartfelt perspective.

She helps solopreneurs and small business owners transform their websites into streamlined systems that nurture leads, convert clients, and scale sustainably. Danielle blends strategy, systems, and smart digital marketing to build growth-ready foundations that help businesses run smoother, feel lighter, and grow on purpose.

Quote/Piece of Advice: Always try to stay optimistic—even when it’s hard. Look for the upside, the bonus, the silver lining. There’s always something good to find.

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.
