She was fantastic.
Now, I loved her book Becoming.
She actually has released another book recently.
It's got light in the title.
I should know the name.
The Light We Carry.
That book has come out more recently.
I want to read it.
I haven't read it yet, but it will be another book that I put on my pile of 25 books that I thought I could read postpartum.
I've only read one.
True, true.
Anyway, now, she's had an amazing life story and something that Michelle often brings up in her talks and when she goes on podcasts or whatever it might be is – and she actually says why because it's very important that she shows people what they can achieve –
she says with hard work and determination is, and believing in yourself, is she did not come from a privileged upbringing.
Like she grew up in a very lower class family.
And the fact that, and so did her husband, Barack Obama, who obviously became the President of the United States, which is just incredible.
And so that's always a very big theme of, you know, what she talks about, which she spoke about at the show.
Now, the thing I love about Michelle Obama and why I wanted to talk about this, apart from the fact that it was just amazing to be in her presence, of course I wanted to come and share some of her wisdom with you guys, things that I wrote down while I was at the show.
Okay, so one of the things that she said was, because people often, like one of the, Annabelle Crabb interviewed her.
She's an amazing journalist.
