The Oprah Podcast
Oprah and Dr. Thema Bryant on How You Are Worthy of the Life You Want

It's depleting. I'll tell you that much. You are not actually grieving the relationship. You're grieving your idea of what you thought the relationship would be. That is so powerful. For too long, we are made to believe that we must say yes to everything. And I want to tell you the holiness of no. No is a sacred word.

Oprah and Dr. Thema Bryant on How You Are Worthy of the Life You Want

This is so wonderful and something I have been looking forward to being able to share this work with the public because many of us are walking around with broken hearts. And I like to say my understanding of healing my heart is not just from doctoral studies or reading books, but having lived it so to know firsthand that it's possible to heal our hearts.

And so I had to heal my sense of myself because of all of the messages that bombard us very early to say that we're not enough.
