Our Editor's Take

Oprah Winfrey produces many podcasts. But one that is particularly close to her heart is Oprah's Super Soul. It's the podcast version of Super Soul Sunday, her popular interview program on The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN). The idea of the original television show was to feature spiritual and uplifting interviews each Sunday morning. Since 2017, listeners have been able to hear this wisdom any day of the week with Oprah's Super Soul podcast. They're billed as “best-of” episodes selected by Oprah herself. The program also features memorable interviews from The Oprah Winfrey Show.

While the TV show went off the air in 2011, Oprah is still a powerful force in the broadcasting world. She's Oprah! She always attracts big-name guests. Being interviewed on Oprah's TV show couch was always a huge honor. Now it's sitting outside with Oprah talking at her Montecito estate or Maui mansion. Oprah's Super Soul may feature celebrities like Tom Brady, Beyoncé, and Lady Gaga. And thinkers like Maya Angelou, Brené Brown, and Joel Osteen get their say. But the show is more uplifting than a standard Hollywood interview. Each of Oprah's guests talks about how to “live your best life.”

Oprah was the first Black female billionaire. She's got her own charity, Oprah's Angel Network. Her good works won her the Presidential Medal of Freedom. She's the undisputed “Queen of All Media.” She's likely a strong contender for the most influential person in the world. This podcast is one way she uses her broad influence to help her audience's personal growth.

Oprah has said these Super Soul shows present “the most universal and powerful life lessons.” They also have many ”aha moments.” The point of all the episodes is to fulfill Oprah's greatest wish for the show. What is that wish? It's that “these conversations will help illuminate your path to all you've been meaning to be and all you're meant to be.”

Super Soul Special: Whispers
Jan 24 2024
Super Soul Special: Whispers
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. Interviews with these talented writers, speakers and thought leaders are excerpted from Oprah’s 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. Want more podcasts from OWN?
