As part of our ‘slow roll summer’ on Hotter Than Ever, we’re revisiting one of our favorite early conversations with Oprah dynasty legend, author, producer and transformation doula Sheri Salata.

In this episode, we explore self-love and renegotiating what life looks like after you’ve achieved your wildest dreams (hint: it’s not over!). We unpack what it means to focus on yourself beyond your work, and what happens when we choose to step out from behind the curtain and into the spotlight. Join us as we discuss:

• The price of amassing conventional success and achievements, and how that factors into our self worth 
• Learning how to steward your own wellbeing and ascend beyond people pleasing 
• Recovering from self betrayal–in the many forms it takes–and learning how to have your own back 
• What it means to choose discomfort in order to continue evolving, releasing, healing and upleveling, until our very last breath 
• Getting over the shame that comes with the desire to be front and center, and to have a public voice and presence
• Overcoming chronic dissatisfaction and learning to appreciate the time you have left in this world (and start using it to its fullest) 
• Knowing that you can’t complain your way to the life of your dreams. Our actions are completely informed by the stories we tell ourselves, so start telling yourself an incredible story and get going!
