Pages are lightly tanned and lightly creased. On January 1, 2008, Robyn Okrant kicked off a year- long experiment to find out what would happen if an average 35-year-old woman put her life in the hands of television's most influential personality, Oprah Winfrey. Using The Oprah Winfrey Show, O, The Oprah Magazine and Oprah.com as a roadmap for her journey, her rule was whatever Oprah says, she does. From her wardrobe to her marriage, diet, spiritual life, finances, home and beyond, the author redesigned her entire life according to Winfrey's 'best life' advice. Why Oprah? Hers is the quintessential rags-to-riches story, and her 'Live Your Best Life' theme inspires millions to strive for happier, more productive lives. And of all the cultural influences on women, Oprah is one of the most prevalent and powerful. Funny, fascinating and thought-provoking, Living Oprah chronicles the author's odyssey as she moves in and out of her comfort zone - sometimes exhilarated, sometimes exhausted and often bemused - while exploring just how much influence any one person, even Oprah, should have on others.
