Compassion, says my dear friend Tara Baswani, an award winning performing artist, composer, experience designer/ director and culture strategist. A lover of nature and humanity with a gift of bringing art and civic justice together.
This generous, loving and rebellious woman - who has worked and collaborated with the great ones: National Geographic, Discovery, MTV, Pepsi, L’Oreal, MIT, and is the first Indian musician to collaborate with the Cirque Du Soleil as music director, casting partner and strategic advisor - has the gift to make you tremble just enough to remember what you truly love. Tara gives us permission to deeply listen to ourselves beyond the status quo and provocatively introduces us to kindness and compassion for ourselves and others as a worthy quest for our lives.
“Kindness is a purpose that can lead us to the fullest version of our own lives… And in crafting our own purpose in the reflection or resonance of the purpose of others, we can truly find the most nourishing meaningful existence that we should ever be so lucky to find.” ~ Tara Baswani
In this episode you’ll hear about:
· To be extraordinary, don't forget the breakdown of the word. It means you have to be that extra ordinary many, many, many times over and let that be the one journey that you seek every single day.
· Creativity is about finding your purpose. Honor tradition, honor observation and method but also ignore the naysayers and people who tell you how to do things in one specific way.
· What is your quest or purpose in life? Are you expecting life to deliver it to you? Or are you showing up and trying to find it in everything that you do?
Plus:
· Shifting perception: The world is filled with movement, but what the world needs more is conscious movement and therefore more conscious actions. Seek the purpose behind conscious action.
· Redefining failure: When you feel empowered enough to stop judging anything around you and to be courageous and free enough to show up and apply your learning anywhere, you’re never going to blame anyone for anything in your life.
· Art of listening: Being able to listen to yourself instead of rushing ahead to find solutions is a great compassionate gift we can give ourselves.
And:
The gift of compassion: Liberate yourself and find the freedom to be able to create courageously.
“There is no such thing as success and failure, but just a constant dialogue in harmony with one another. And then everything's just a great quest” ~ Tara Baswani
Until next time! Be curious, be inspired, simplify the way…

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.
