Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Candid, moving, exhilarating, uplifting, and frequently humorous, the words Oprah shares in What I Know for Sure shimmer with the sort of truth that readers will turn to again and again.

As a creative force, student of the human heart and soul, and champion of living the life you want, Oprah Winfrey stands alone. Over the years, she has made history with a legendary talk show (the highest-rated programme of its kind), launched her own television network, become the USA's only African-American billionaire, and been awarded both an honorary degree by Harvard University and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. From all her experiences, she has gleaned life lessonsβ€” which, for fourteen years, she's shared in O, The Oprah Magazine's widely popular 'What I Know for Sure' column, a monthly source of inspiration and revelation.

Now these thoughtful gems have been revised, updated, and collected in What I Know for Sure, a beautiful book with a ribbon marker, packed with insight and revelation from Oprah Winfrey. Organized by themeβ€”joy, resilience, connection, gratitude, possibility, awe, clarity, and powerβ€”these essays offer a rare, powerful, and intimate glimpse into the heart and mind of one of the world's most extraordinary women, while providing readers a guide to becoming their best selves.
