We do. Today's episode. In today's episode, I speak with a guest who I absolutely adore,

someone who I was lucky enough to meet up with when we were on the book tour road trip last year.

And it's Sherry Salata. Now Sherry is,

for anyone who's listening who was an Oprah fan or is an Oprah fan, but watched the show,

Sherry was the executive producer of the last five seasons of Oprah. And she featured really heavily in one of the seasons. I think it was episode, season 25 or 26 where it was like a behind the scenes. Yeah, behind the scenes

Oprah. It was the final season. I think it might have been. Yeah. But so, so Sherry was also

the executive producer, but she was also the president of Oprah's network

and Harper Studios.

And we crossed past kind of funnily a couple of years ago when she sent me an email saying

that she listened to the podcast and really enjoyed it and loved the Blue Mountains as a

result of her trip out to Australia.

Remember when Oprah came out. Remember that was a big thing in Australia. It's a huge thing. I think, didn't she have a show at the Opera House? Yes. Yes. I think she did. Yeah. So Sherry and I kind of hit it off and kept in touch. And then last year when I was in L.A LA were able to swing our schedule so that we could

have breakfast together which was really lovely yeah and the kids and I hung out at Malibu
