The universe has good news for the lost, lonely and heartsick.
The sugars are here speaking straight into your ears.
I'm Steve Almond.
I'm Cheryl Stray.
This is is dear sugars.
Oh dear song, won't you please share some little sweetness with me?
I check my bell vibes every day.
Oh, and the sugar you send my way.
Hi, Steve.
Hi, Cheryl.
So here we are in the second part of our series on how to say no, in which we were talking to Oprah Winfrey.
If you're just tuning in now, I highly recommend you go back and listen to episode one.
We talked about a letter, and Oprah had a lot of interesting things to say about the struggle many of us have with saying no and what it means to say yes.
Yeah, in fact, I was thinking about, I don't know, Cheryl.
I don't know if I've ever told you this story, but years ago, after I wrote the silly book about Candy called Candy Freak, I was contacted by a film crew.
They identified themselves as a documentary film crew, and they wanted to come to my house in Somerville, Massachusetts, and talk to me about my obsession with candy.
And of course, the people you know at the publishing house were like, yes.
Oh, my God, this is such an opportunity.
This is going to make this book a best seller.
