Summary

Making the shift from self to service brings joy and also a deep sense of fulfillment to our jobs, relationships and the vision we create of our best life, says Oprah's friend Gary Zukav. He says this is the moment when we discover authentic power--“when your personality comes fully to serve the energy of its soul.” Fulfilling your purpose, with meaning, is what gives you that powerful spark of energy unique only to you, he says. In this episode of Super Soul Conversations Oprah sits down with such inspirational teachers, including Gary Zukav, Mastin Kipp, Paulo Coehlo, Sue Monk Kidd, Pastor Wintley Phipps, Nate Berkus, Diana Nyad, India.Arie, Janet Mock, Jack Canfield, Daniel Pink, Daniel Goleman, Shawn Achor, Jeff Weiner, Wes Moore, Shonda Rhimes and Devon Franklin to reveal how we can tap that source, which is our highest and truest version of ourselves. 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 Wisdom of Sundays.

0:00.0	I'm Oprah Winfrey. Welcome to Super Soul Conversations, the podcast. I believe that one of
0:07.5	the most valuable gifts you can give yourself is time, taking time to be more fully present.
0:16.0	Your journey to become more inspired and connected to the deeper world around us starts right

0:41.3	connection to all that is greater than themselves. Even during the Oprah Winfrey show years, I
0:46.2	always felt a hunger from the audience, a deep desire to nourish not only their mind
0:53.3	and body, but also to create a more meaningful, authentic life. Most people say the biggest
0:59.7	dream they have for themselves is happiness. Contentment and a sense of peace are absolutely
1:06.1	elements in the equation, but ultimately, I believe what we're all truly seeking is freedom.
1:15.4	We long for a life without constraint, free from conflict, fear or judgment. Where our
1:23.4	relationships, career, health, finances coexist in perfect flow with our spiritual center.
1:33.0	This is what Michael Singer described during our Super Soul conversations as an absolute
1:37.9	state of well-being.
1:41.3	As you think about what lasting fulfillment looks like in your own life, know that the
1:47.4	divine force at work within all of us has a bigger dream for you than you could ever imagine
1:53.6	for yourself. Success comes when you surrender to that dream and allow it to lead you to the
2:02.3	next best place.
2:05.5	Just outside the door of my office at Harpo Studios in Chicago, there was an elevator.
