About this listen

When Oprah Winfrey speaks, the world listens. Health - both emotional and physical - and general wellness are the topics she often focuses upon. She is completely transparent with her own struggles in these areas, allowing herself to be relatable while also inspiring change.

She has been ranked the richest African American of the 20th century and the greatest black philanthropist in American history and was once the world’s only black billionaire.

In short, Oprah Winfrey is a boss.

There can be no doubting the inspiration and influence she has been for women and men from around the globe. She overcame a terrible start in life to run the most successful talk show of all time for nearly three decades, not to mention her countless other achievements. The journey that is Oprah’s life is about overcoming the odds, and we would be foolish not to learn the many lessons she has to offer.

This book takes a look at Oprah's life, from humble beginnings in Mississippi to present-day superstar. The aim of this book is to be educational and inspirational, with actionable principles you can incorporate into your own life straight from the great woman herself.

Including 40 little known facts and 10 success principles to live by.

Big potential that was not used

The narrative part of the book is of a very low quality, with weird pauses in sentences and overall spoken accent which is influencing user’s experience. There is a summary after chapters that are very repetitive of what has been already said, so is the last chapter. It is a good try and Oprah’s story makes it still interesting but in my opinion, the concept and Oprah’s life itself would deserve more thought.

Enjoyed

Very insightful. I leaned information about Oprah Winfrey that I didn’t know and it was well put together in my opinion. Thank you

Enjoyed the storyline

Thank you for this! My feedback would be that I wish the life lessons section was longer and more elaborate (including stories of their life struggle) and that it included summary of their daily routine so that others can understand what a successful and influential persons daily routine looks like and learn more that. Thank you 🙏

Amazing Life

This was an amazing book about life lessons. Everyone goes through struggles or challenges in life, but that’s what makes us who we are. Oprah you’ve lived an amazing life with successful accomplishments.

Very good book, very poor performance

When listening to audible, a person needs to enjoy the experience. Reading a book is not the same as listening to the book. The information is the same but the presentation is auditory. The presentation was very poor because the voice was annoying. Her voice was monotone. It was hard to enjoy the Audible because the voice is hard to listen to.
I would use a different reader with a soothing voice that fluctuates. I would re-record the same book.. Then I would give it 5 stars.

Don’t like Narrator

The voice of the narrator hurt my ears and couldn’t get past the first few chapters. That’s unfortunate because it was interesting to learn about Oprah’s life. I would not recommend this book.

Zero stars

Terrible narration of repeating information.
NOT what you think - just a random collection of unrelated info about Oprah
