This year marks the tenth anniversary of O the Oprah Magazine. Oprah celebrated by doing a much hyped (as Oprah always does)ribbon cutting event. The event was titled 'Live Your Best Life Walk' to start the first of the marathon this year. Celebs like Mary J. Blige and Jennifer Hudson came out to support their friend Oprah in NYC for the walk. The staff of O the Oprah Mag was on hand as well to celebrate their achievement.
Realizing that Oprah mag has been around for ten years took me back to the first time I began to read the magazine. I was a junior in college. At that time in my life I felt isolated and confused. Seeking clarity I would read articles on Oprah.com. Shortly after in 2001 a year after the mag started I began reading O the Oprah Magazine faithfully.
I would flip to the back to read "What I know for Sure". It was commentary by Oprah speaking on things that became clear to her and she would share her wisdom as a source of inspiration. I would then flip to the front to the context section to find out what page Martha Beck the author, writer, and beloved life coach had to say in her advice section. Martha inspired me to become a life coach. That is how big her influence was and still has on my life. I would seek money advice from Suze Orman and straight forward advice from my beloved Dr.Phil.
This week I will blog about different articles that has been the source of inspiration in my life. Join me as I reflect of lessons and hope they will help you to live your best life!!! Oprah.
