High-achieving women are often praised for doing it all, but at what cost? In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano sits down with Patty Durell to unpack what strength really looks like when you're burning out behind the scenes. From fitness to failure to finally asking for help, this conversation dives into the pressure to keep pushing and the permission to start pausing.

Patty shares her insights as a fitness expert who takes a trauma-informed approach to health, reminding us that wellness isn’t about punishing your body—it’s about understanding it. Together, she and Lyndsay challenge the hustle mentality, explore what it means to redefine strength, and offer a science-backed take on how efficient workouts (just 25 minutes, twice a week!) can actually be more effective than the grind.

They discuss stress as a full-body experience, the myth of balance, and the healing power of water—both physically and metaphorically. This episode is about rewriting the rules, giving yourself grace, and embracing the version of strength that doesn't require burnout as a badge of honor.

Tune in if you’re ready to stop proving your worth through exhaustion and start honoring it through self-care.

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.
