I know that my audience is largely women, so what I try to do a lot of times is address their issues.

Everyone can relate to love, hurt, pain, learning how to forgive, needing to get over, needing the power of God in their life.

I've been doing television for quite some time, so Oprah Winfrey and I thought it was a great idea to partner up. I am going to buy my own network and I thought it was a great opportunity for both of us. It's a win-win because I get the opportunity to give her what she needs, which is programming, and at the same time, I get to learn how to run a network.

The most important thing that I learned in growing up is that forgiveness is something that, when you do it, you free yourself to move on.

When you haven't forgiven those who've hurt you, you turn back against your future. When you do forgive, you start walking forward.

When black women are down with you and in your corner, you have an ally that will move Heaven and Earth.

I think there's something that happens at 40 where you settle into your own skin and you stop caring what people think - you realize life is a gift from God and you want to live it to the fullest.
