Have you ever felt like your life circumstances made it impossible for you to find joy again? Do you often reflect on what you don't have or mourn what could have been for your diagnosed child?

In this heartfelt episode, we delve into the inspiring story of Melanie, a stay-at-home mom of two, whose youngest is non-ambulatory and non-verbal due to an undiagnosed condition. During the early years of her youngest daughter's life, Melanie struggled with intense anxiety and stress, manifesting in physical symptoms like skin rashes, food intolerances, and vision challenges. Her fear of the world deeply affected her and her youngest child, who cried incessantly, mirroring Melanie's inner turmoil.

Join us as we explore her incredible journey from fear to joy, from a need to fix her child to embracing unconditional love, and from a mindset of lack to one of gratitude. Discover how this courageous mother transformed the health and energy of her home, leading to a life filled with happiness, authenticity, and celebration of life’s offerings, irrespective of conditions or environments.

Witness the profound power of the parent-child connection, and how a parent's healing journey can empower a child to flourish in happiness and health, just as they were meant to. Be inspired by this remarkable path of healing and joy.

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.
