She Lost Her Mother at Age 11 and Taught Oprah a Lesson She Never Forgot

Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@Oprah?sub_confirmation=1 One of her guests Oprah has never forgotten was an 11-year-old girl named Kate who had recently lost her mother to cancer. In a conversation that touched millions Kate shared one of the many memories she treasured most was a special night when she and her mom sat together eating a bowl of Cheerios. It was a poignant reminder that the moments that matter most are not always the grand vacations, expensive gifts or elaborate celebrations, instead it can be simply time spent together. Oprah shares how over the years she often thinks about her conversation with Kate and the impact it had on her own life and her viewers’ lives. Now, Kate returns to The Oprah Podcast as a mother of two herself reflecting on how losing her mom at such a young age shaped the woman she became, the parent she strives to be and the ways she continues to carry her mother’s love forward. 00:00:00 - Welcome to a The Oprah Winfrey Show throwback 00:02:00 - Kate and Zach just lost their mom 00:08:30 - Kate and Zach as teenagers 00:10:15 - Kate shares signs from her mother 00:12:39 - Kate at 29 00:14:20 - Kate on getting help and getting sober 00:17:00 - Kate with Oprah now 00:18:24 - Zach and Kate’s relationship now Follow Oprah Winfrey on Social: https://www.instagram.com/oprahpodcast/ https://www.facebook.com/oprahwinfrey/ Listen to the full podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/0tEVrfNp92a7lbjDe6GMLI https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-oprah-podcast/id1782960381
