    Nicole Avant restored my soul. Her life is proof you can be surrounded by greatness, raised in wealth, and love the Lord. Thank you, Ms. Oprah, for spotlighting Nicole’s book and story.

    Miss O, I have a parent with Alzheimer’s and I often let your shows play on loop in our home. We have Max and Apple+. It genuinely brightens up her day and she is reminded of the Oprah Winfrey show. Thank you for the continued efforts to share with us your gift of being an interviewer ❤

    I loved this interview. Nicole has so much strength. Losing both parents within a year. She looks like both parents. She was so calm. Sending continued blessings her way!
  • @carmenberman420
    Thank you for sharing this beautiful interview. I felt very much like Nicole when I was told my daughter 28 years old had passed. I searched for God strength at that moment and knew that God had taken her and I needed to accept God's will. I am grateful to have had such a caring, loving daughter for 28 years. I still talk to my daughter in my thoughts and live my life like she would like for me to live. I know I will see her again. Living in gratitude is very important for me.

    As a therapist, Nicole Avant’s experience is an exemplary ambition I wish for every grieving client. The two opposing truths of light and darkness are dialectics. And in the moment I love the determination to “choose the joy”. This was such a refreshing interview, Oprah. ❤

    I clicked on this not fully knowing her or her story. What an extraordinary human! Absolutely adding her book to my list

    "Gratitude as a weapon against sorrow"
  • @solmazhabibi2719
    Grieving is a profound pain that touches every person. I've personally faced this when I lost both my mom and dad in a year—getting through it felt like a nightmare. Despite the ongoing grief as she said , I've been described as a happy person. I carry this pain, yet simultaneously, I find purpose in being helpful to others.
  • @melinda3196
    What a beautiful woman Jackie raised!!! I pray that I can have a small percentage of her grace ....
  • So many lessons learned here. We can use gratitude against sorrow. Thank you Nicole, for sharing your story.
  • @carmenjones5855
    As a parent whose child passed away unexpectedly. I understand every aspect of this interview and loved it. Thank you, Oprah and Nicole.
  • @bkay558
    I need more conversations like this in my life! I’m healed listening to this .. all I can say is THANK YOU 😊
  • @denisesmith5960
    I read the book because the promo mentioned….”my mother has been shot…” I was shot five times at close range the day after my divorce. My three children 15, 13 and 12 got that call. I wanted to see if your book gave me insight what they experienced. I did live. A client hired a hit man to kill me…but God 31 years later I am still here. I thank God for this book.
