IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

Why aren't you at the house?

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

And she said, I need some cookies.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

I'm like, what?

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

Like, are you, oh, you are not okay.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

She had a broken toe.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

But she was going to get her cookies.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

And she used to always hide cookies under the seat when we were driving.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

She used to hide cookies and my dad would be like, why are all these cookies under here?

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

So she definitely has a sweet tooth, which is kind of funny.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

I have so many good memories of my mom.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

So I think what a lot of people don't realize is that we travel... Every time we went to Australia, probably actually every time we went to France, my mom was always there.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

My dad actually never went to those tournaments.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

And so she was always our coach for all that time.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

And so...

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

I don't know how many Australian Opens I've won.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

A lot.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

So she basically coached me through all of them.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

And I remember one time when I was 89 in the world and everyone had written me off.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

I was like 20-something.

IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
It’s Okay to Apologize to Your Kids with Serena Williams

And they said I would never win again, blah, blah, blah.
