Some stories crack you open—in the best possible way. In this moving episode, Lyndsay Soprano sits down with Julie Barth to talk about what it really takes to keep going when life keeps hitting hard. From surviving domestic violence to caring for her special needs daughter and losing her husband to cancer, Julie’s story is one of pain, yes—but also one of grit, grace, and quiet strength.

Together, she and Lyndsay talk about the layered reality of motherhood, the exhaustion of caregiving, and the way grief can stretch far beyond a single moment of loss. But this isn’t a story about defeat. It’s about choosing to get back up. Julie shares how advocacy became her purpose, how community gave her strength, and how art became a powerful outlet for healing.

This conversation is a reminder that resilience isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you build. And even in the darkest seasons, there is light to be found when women show up for each other.

Tune in if you need a reminder that pain can shape purpose—and that you don’t have to walk through it alone.

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.
