The following in red is confusing. Would you please paraphrase it more easily?
Martha beck is one of America's most famous life coaches, but her own life has not been without challenge and heartbreak..... With all of that, Martha has a PhD from Harvard and her own new show on the Oprah Winfrey Network and is "one of the smartest women I know," Oprah says. Her career seemed to benefit from the same recipe of equal parts of heart and mind and is a great example of a woman who walks and talks ther practical genius without ever censoring herself.
Thank you.
She combines brains and the heart (emotions) in equal proportion.
It's much easier.
Many thanks.
