Published: July 2, 2019, 6 p.m.

What happens when you realize you\u2019ve had the career of your dreams, but you don\u2019t have the life of your dreams? This was the stark reality facing Sheri Salata when she left her twenty-year stint at\xa0The Oprah Winfrey Show,\xa0Harpo Studios and the OWN network. She had dedicated decades to her dream job, and loved (almost) every minute of it, but had left the rest of her life gathering dust on the shelf.\n\nSHERI SALATA\xa0is a writer/producer, cofounder of The Pillar Life and cohost of the podcast\xa0The Sheri + Nancy Show.\xa0Her current ventures are the evolution of her 20-year career with Oprah Winfrey. Her action-packed days as Executive Producer on The Oprah Winfrey Show were chronicled in the acclaimed docuseries Season 25: Oprah Behind the Scenes. Sheri also served as Co-President of Harpo Studios and OWN, the Oprah Winfrey Network. Sheri has been named one of Fast Company\u2019s 100 Most Creative People in Business, The Hollywood Reporter\u2019s Women in Entertainment Power 100 and the 2017 Feminist Press Power Award winners. Sheri is living happily ever after in a magical town in northern California.\n\nSheri's new book\xa0The Beautiful No And Other Tales of Trial, Transcendence, and Transformation\xa0is a woman's roadmap to midlife reinvention, inspired by Salata's own journey of radical self-care and transformation after decades of single minded devotion to work over life.
