Publisher's Summary

Candid, moving, exhilarating, uplifting, frequently humorous, and passionately read by the author, the words Oprah shares in What I Know For Sure shimmer with the sort of truth that listeners will revisit 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 program 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 lessons – 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, for the first time, these thoughtful gems have been revised, updated, and collected in What I Know For Sure, a beautiful audiobook, packed with insight and revelation from Oprah Winfrey. Passionately read by the author and organized by theme – joy, resilience, connection, gratitude, possibility, awe, clarity, and power – 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 listeners a guide to becoming their best selves.

Beautifully written

A wonderful book based on Oprah's experience narrated in her wonderfully hypnotic, relaxing and familiar voice. She shares her lessons learned in life and business that you can take and impart in your life. Very easy to listen to with wonderful messages that resonate. I will be listening again and again.

Just a collection of thoughts

I was looking for something more, but it’s really the same old collection of spiritual thoughts from someone that is a little bit removed from the real world.

You won’t find anything in this that you haven’t already heard in any other business or self help book.

Oprah does a great job of reading it, and I can’t fault her performance. It is still engaging, it’s just that I found the content lacking.
