"We grew up watching Oprah and have been inspired by everything she has done to pave the way for young women entrepreneurs. We have been approached with a lot of opportunities to collaborate together and create our first video content, but when Oprah came calling we knew we had to go with the best in the business. It's an honor to have her as a Skimm'r," said Danielle Weisberg and Carly Zakin, founders of theSkimm.
