Therein lies The Secrets to Living A Fantastic Life! And in fact, that’s the title of the book today’s inspiring guests co-authored together. Join this unbelievably empowering show with special guests Dr. Allen Lycka and Harriet Tinka, who each suffered trauma and sought renewal through the wisdom of specific character traits that refocused them on a life of richness, appreciation, joy and service.
Harriet, a beautiful former runway model, shares her real-life horror story of being beaten, abducted and stabbed -- an incident intended to leave her for dead. It was a miracle she survived. However, after experiencing the incredible trauma, she was feeling a sense of “why me?” until something happened that turned her perspectives around.
And Dr. Lycka, considered Canada’s premier cosmetic dermatologist, was visiting what he called “the happiest place on earth,” Disney, with his wife and daughter. It was during that trip that he became aware of his foot “flapping.” This took him on an unexpected journey of facing his own mortality and many more surprises to unfold.
When both met, it wasn’t long after that they decided to write a book together. And in this compelling episode of Aging GreatFULLy, they share their stories and their book, The Secrets to Living a Fantastic Life: The 13 Golden Pearls uncovering how two survivors discovered incredible life wisdom together.

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.
