WATCH: Oprah's 'You Get A Car' giveaway years later...
Oprah Winfrey and Prince Harry's co-creation, 'The Me You Can't See', is proving to be a real insight into what some influential people have gone through, revealing a side to them that we haven't seen.
The moment where Oprah Winfrey enthusiastically gave away cars to her entire audience has been something that was imprinted on our minds since it happened in September 2004.
Almost 17 years later and people still use this reference in many ways, with videos, GIFs, and memes, even our very own Stacey and JSbu refer to their giveaway moments as the 'Oprah and Gayle of giveaways'.
Oprah shared a sentimental post about this time in her life and having met such different people during that show. Read it below (courtesy of Instagram):

Oprah has shared a lot in her co-created docuseries called, 'The Me You Can't See'. The 'You get a car' episode allowed her to meet many people with unique and trying circumstances, something that everyone doesn't really show the world.
This episode sparked a relationship with an audience member named Alex, who happened to be homeless. She managed to overcome a lot in her life but also suffers from PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).
Oprah revealed that as much as she has tried to help Alex with her PTSD, it is a complex condition, and Alex has "caused her to look at mental health in a very different way than she had approached it before." (Instagram)

The Apple TV docuseries seems to be unleashing important insight into the mental state of some influential people. We hope that this can further spill into society and break the stigmas attached to talking about our emotional well-being and our overall mental health.
