About this episode
Oprah sits down with New York Times bestselling author Lara Love Hardin to talk about her new memoir and Oprah’s Book Club 104th pick The Many Lives of Mama Love: A Memoir of Lying, Stealing, Writing, and Healing. Lara shares her heartbreaking, yet inspiring journey of reinvention from suburban soccer mom to opioid addict and convicted felon to successful ghostwriter. Oprah describes it as a book "about redemption, about joy, about hope, about reclaiming yourself and what you rightly deserve in life." In this candid conversation, Oprah and Lara discuss her downward spiral of addiction, Lara's time behind bars and what she wants people to understand about the process and power of self-acceptance and self-forgiveness.
