Media mogul Oprah Winfrey is all set to embark on a two day US tour to talk about empowerment, resilience and authenticity.

The talk show host, 60, will visit eight cities this year for 'The Life You Want Weekend' arena tour. She will appear onstage on a Friday night at each stop, followed by a panel of different personalities, said The Hollywood Reporter.

"It's about living the life you want, because a great percentage of the population is living a life that their mother wanted, that their husband wanted, that they thought or heard they wanted," Winfrey said.

The chat show host said she will use the platform to push themes of "empowerment, resilience and authenticity."
 

During the two-day conference, Oprah will share her personal story and interact with fans on the first day. While on day two, she will lead group activities.

Iyanla Vanzant, 'Eat, Pray, Love' author Elizabeth Gilbert and Pastor Rob Bell are among the people, who will join the tour for each weekend, with author Deepak Chopra an occasional guest.

The first stop will be in Atlanta on the first weekend of September.
