Do you have a remarkable friendship story? We’re looking for incredible friendships of ALL kinds! Best friends who have been together since childhood. A friendship that came into your life when you needed it most. A friend who helped you through an unimaginable loss, illness or life-changing moment. An unexpected friendship between two people who never thought they’d have anything in common. Friends separated by decades or distance who found their way back to each other.

Or maybe you found real friendship for the first time later in life? If a friendship has changed your life, carried you through, stood the test of time—or has an incredible story behind it—we want to hear from you! If you live in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania or Massachusetts and want to tell us about your friendship and what makes it so special, email us at respond@harpo.com. Please include a recent photo and the best number to reach you

Do you have a mid-life yearning for something more? Around age 45 something hits. Often people come to realize they are no longer fulfilled with the life they’ve built. For some women this feeling comes after years of juggling career pressures, motherhood, caregiving and chronic burnout and say to themselves “it’s my turn now.” From the outside things may look fine, but inside, you know something needs to change. Sometimes an inventive ’third act’ of life is exactly what you need.

Have you made a major life change in your 40s or beyond? Left a career, ended a relationship, started over, pursued something you’d put off for years or begun questioning what comes next? We’re looking to hear from women in their 40s who have reached a turning point, made a major change or have decided it’s time to figure out a new way forward. If you are willing to share your story, please email the details to contactus@harpo.com.

Please include a recent photo and the best phone number to reach you.

Are you a caregiver for your community? We’re looking for remarkable people whose lives are dedicated to helping others through some of life’s biggest challenges. Maybe you or someone you know is a hospice nurse or chaplain who walks families through their final goodbyes or a dog foster who takes in animals with complex medical needs when no one else will. Are you or a friend the caregiver for your school, your community, animals or a garden?

Perhaps you or someone you know volunteers to help take care of elderly, sick, or people with special needs. If you live in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts or elsewhere in the Northeast, we want to hear from you. Please email us your story and a photo to Producers@harpo.com

Dog Lovers: We Want To Hear From You! Does your dog feel less like a pet and more like family? Has your dog gotten you through a heartbreak, a hard season, a big life change, or simply made your everyday life a whole lot better? We want to hear your story! We’re looking for people who have extraordinary bonds with their dogs to talk about what our dogs really mean to us: how they love us, comfort us, make us laugh, get us through life, and sometimes even teach us things about ourselves.

We're looking for people who have a genuine love for their dog and a story they can’t stop talking about. If your dog has changed your life, we want to hear from you. Email us at reply@Harpo.com

Are you in a relationship with a narcissist or do you wonder if you are? Narcissist, Gaslighting, and Love bombing. These are buzzwords we often hear, but are you actually living with or dating a narcissist? Does your spouse or significant other make everything about them? Do they constantly need admiration or attention? Maybe they put you down, dismiss your feelings, twist conversations around or make you question your own memory of what happened? Are you constantly walking on eggshells?

If so, we want to hear your story and any questions you may have, to join a conversation with experts on The Oprah Podcast. Email us audience@harpo.com. Please include a recent photo and the best number to reach you.
