Original Air Date: May 26, 2021Oprah says, “I have always thought a mountain is a magnificent metaphor for life. From a distance, the ascent looks clear and smooth, but once you actually set out for the summit, you discover unexpected valleys and precarious ridges along the way. If your internal compass isn't set to keep climbing, every stumble will give you an excuse to turn back. Over the years, there have been many times when I've found myself climbing a steep, rocky road and there have been setbacks which threatened to overwhelm me or stop me in my tracks. But I've learned to keep going and to tell myself, ‘This too shall pass, and I will be better for it.' In this Super Soul podcast, Oprah sits down with such legendary spiritual teachers and thought leaders as: Eckhart Tolle, Stephen Colbert, President Joe Biden (VP at the time), Father Richard Rohr, Kristen and Rob Bell, Alanis Morissette, Cheryl Strayed, Paul Williams, Tracey Jackson, Glennon Doyle, Tracy McMillan, Cindy Crawford, Jon Bon Jovi and Joel Osteen. They discuss how they made their way up their own mountains, and what kept them going, no matter how steep the climb. A similar path is waiting for you. Interviews with these talented writers, speakers and thought leaders are excerpted from her Emmy Award-winning show Super Soul Sunday.

Original Air Date: April 7, 2021Your life is always speaking to you in whispers, guiding you to your next right step. In many situations, the whisper is also the first warning. It's a quiet nudge from deep within saying, Hmmm, something feels off. A small voice that tells you, “This is no longer your place of belonging.” It's the pit in your stomach, or the pause before you speak. It's the shiver, the goosebumps that raise the hairs on the back of your neck. Whatever form the whisper takes, it's not a coincidence. Your life is trying to tell you something. Heeding these signs can open the doors to your personal evolution, pushing you toward your life's purpose. Ignoring them or sleepwalking through your life, is an invitation to chaos. In this Super Soul podcast, Oprah sits down with such gifted writers and thought leaders as Dani Shapiro, Caroline Myss, Adyashanti, Shauna Niequist, Jon Kabat Zinn, Cheryl Strayed, Pema Chödrön, Amy Purdy, John Lewis, Wes Moore, Kerry Washington and Thomas Moore.

Do you feel a pull to be both a mother and pursue outside interests? Maybe it's starting a business. Maybe it's working for someone else outside the home. Maybe being a full-time SAHM is exactly where you want to be, but you want to carve out some time for your personal interests and hobbies so you don't lose yourself in motherhood. In today's episode, I spoke with Camille Walker. Camille is the epitome of a mom who has pursued her passions. Through blogging, doing her podcast, and creating some wonderful products to help out busy families, she has created a 6-figure income business all while raising her 4 kids. You can be a fantastic mom and still pursue your passions. It doesn't have to be either/or, and it doesn't have to be black and white. You may not even know what that path looks like for you, but adding that you're a mom AND...(you feel in the blank)...can lead to some amazing things. Camille also touches on how charting your energy during your period cycle (Yes, even your period has seasons!) will give you power in your life and even if it's small, to honor your passion driven purpose. You can hear more about that here. Maybe this isn't your season to go all in for a business, but I hope this episode helps you find a balance that works for you and your family.

Everyone has a purpose. And, according to Oprah Winfrey, "Your real job in life is to figure out as soon as possible what that is, who you are meant to be, and begin to honor your calling in the best way possible." That journey starts right here. In her latest book, The Path Made Clear, Oprah shares what she sees as a guide for activating your deepest vision of yourself, offering the framework for creating not just a life of success, but one of significance. The book's ten chapters are organized to help you recognize the important milestones along the road to self-discovery, laying out what you really need in order to achieve personal contentment, and what life's detours are there to teach us.
OPRAH WINFREY: HOME Oprah says that throughout her life certain works of literature and film have completely changed the lens through which she sees the world. One of the films that spoke to her deeply, especially as a child, was The Wizard of Oz. As an adult, she says she realized the message of the film is one of the great spiritual teachings of all time. Like so many of us, Dorothy believed she needed something outside herself… like the great and powerful Oz, to find her way home. Glinda, the good witch, later tells Dorothy she's had the power all along, but she had to learn it for herself. Oprah says this was one of the greatest aha moments of her life. Today she says no matter how far you have strayed from yourself, there is always the path back. And you don't have to look any further than your own back yard to find it. You already know who you are and how to fulfill your destiny. In this podcast Oprah sits down with such legendary writers and spiritual teachers as: Debbie Ford, Father Richard Rohr, Elizabeth Gilbert, Sue Monk Kidd, Elizabeth Lesser, Stevie Nicks, Sidney Poitier, Jack Canfield, Mitch Albom, Shawn Achor, Robin Roberts, Jean Houston, Jane Fonda and Gary Zukav.

No matter how many yellow brick roads they encountered, it was always right there... at home in their hearts. The same is true for all of you. Interviews with these talented writers, speakers and thought leaders are excerpted from her Emmy Award-winning show Super Soul Sunday. You can also find this compilation and other insightful conversations, in Oprah's best-selling book The Path Made Clear.
Oprah says, “What I know for sure is that no matter how much wealth you come to possess, everything passes and changes with time. What is real, what is forever, is who you are and what you are meant to share with the world. That is your true treasure.” In this podcast Oprah sits down with: Pico Iyer, Cicely Tyson, Reverend Michael Beckwith, Lynne Twist, Sarah Ban Breathnach, Jack Canfield, Goldie Hawn, Jordan Peele, Jimmy Kimmel, Jeff Weiner, Trevor Noah and William Paul Young.

Oprah says, “I’ll never forget the first time Maya Angelou shared with me what would become a much beloved refrain: People may not remember what you did or said, but they always remember how you made them feel. What her words so brilliantly remind us, is that every single moment is an opportunity to be of service to another human being. That is what I hope will be your takeaway from this podcast. I’m not referring just to volunteering or contributing to a cause, though those are wonderful, worthwhile activities that strengthen us. What I am talking about is committing, decision by decision to a sustained compassionate approach to life.” In this podcast, Oprah sits down with: Mark Nepo, Bryan Stevenson, Gloria Steinem, Thich Nhat Hanh, U.S. Representative John Lewis, Marianne Williamson, Deepak Chopra, Charles Eisenstein, Lynne Twist, President Jimmy Carter, Mindy Kaling, Gary Zukav, Wayne Dyer.

OPRAH WINFREY: THE MAP How many times have you witnessed someone get close to achieving a goal, only to see it suddenly fall apart? Or they reach the top of the mountain but can’t seem to hold on. Maybe you too have struggled with near-misses and dreams that didn’t quite materialize. Self-sabotage can be a devastating cycle. Oprah believes the variable between winning the race and faltering at the finish line lies with one of the guiding forces in her life: Intention. She says, “Those who sense your truth and your authenticity will rise up to support you. But most importantly you must believe with your whole heart that you are capable of achieving your goal. So first ask yourself Why? What is the real intention? Then ask: How will I execute the action?” In this podcast, Oprah sits down with such legendary spiritual teachers and writers as Gary Zukav, Gabrielle Bernstein, Brené Brown, Stephen Colbert, David Brooks, President Joe Biden (VP at the time) Marianne Williamson, Daniel Pink, Carole Bayer Sager, Cheryl Strayed, Reverend Michael Beckwith, Meagan Good, Devon Franklin, Janet Mock and Goldie Hawn. They share their own personal trajectories and the inner map they followed which led them to the ultimate fulfillment of their dreams.

Your life purpose is about being in service of something much bigger than yourself. When you're clear about your purpose, it's easier to choose where you will focus your energy, or not; where you will say yes, or no. And, of course, how you spend your time is how you spend your life. You want it to be in service of something that makes the world a better place. When you know your purpose, it's your north star. It provides direction, it helps you to get back on track, it gives you more confidence in the decisions you make. If you were to live into your purpose every day: How might your behavior and interactions be different? How might your life and your impact on others' lives be different?
