You set an incredible example for all of us.”

Michelle along with talk show host Oprah Winfrey appeared in Netflix special The Light We Carry – named after her book. The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times was released last year in November and became a bestseller in no time.
“In #TheLightWeCarry, I share the story of the time when my mom insisted it was time for me to walk to and from elementary school all by myself. I was in kindergarten then, around five years old, and I couldn’t help but ask myself, “Did she really believe I could walk to school alone?” My mom understood the importance of setting aside her fears and allowing me the power of my own competence. And because she had faith in me, I had faith in me, too. As scared as I was, I felt a sense of pride and independence, which became important building blocks in my foundation as an independent human being,” the US former first lady wrote on her Instagram page.
