I enjoy all Michele’s books & interviews .

We all need a friend that we can trust for advise or just to share feelings. That’s the way we maintained balance. That’s how I feel every time when I read or listen any of her books & podcast.

So Much Love & Sincerity

I wish the podcasts never end. I could listen all day. They’re genuine, funny and real. It’s nice to listen to Mrs. Obama as a real person.

Love Michelle!

I have listened to all of Michelle’s podcasts. She has such great stories about her life in the White House, and about life in general. She’s smart, funny, full of grace and so down to earth. I look forward to all future episodes.

Listened to all and enjoyed them!

I really enjoyed these podcasts, and I did have a favorite. I laughed out loud when Michelle was being interviewed and talking with Conan.

Michelle Obama

Absolutely beautiful book and podcast. Your message is brilliant and I appreciate your honesty and wisdom. Your podcast was well thought out and your hosts are so real. They were each able to share a personal experience and journey. As a Hispanic American woman, my journey has not been easy. Listening to your podcast and reading your book inspires me to continue working hard towards being better version of myself. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I can’t wait for the next one! I want to be a part of your audience.

Enjoyable to listen to

I really enjoyed listening & wish I could’ve seen some of the visuals that were presented at the live talks. It makes me want more.

Lovely, funny discussion

Such a lovely discussion about the importance of female friendships. Love Michelle’s sense of humor: “I had the biggest house…” The biggest surprise was the description of the White House being in dire need of upgrades and renovation. She was right, I would never have expected that answer!
