ReviewsPraise for Michelle Obama's Becoming "A serious work of candid reflection by a singular figure of early-twenty-first-century America . . . Becoming is refined and forthright, gracefully written and at times laugh-out-loud funny." --Isabel Wilkerson, The New York Times Book Review " Becoming is inspirational without trying to be. From the first words, the very warmth that permeates its author emanates from the pages. . . . Becoming manages to be a coming-of-age tale, a love story and a family saga all in one. More importantly, this book is a reminder that America is still a work-in-progress, and that hope can be an action word if we allow it to be. Becoming is a balm that America needs, from a woman America does not yet deserve." --Angie Thomas, Time "Deeply personal and refreshingly honest . . . She's thoughtful, humorous, bracingly revealing, and when it's time, she does us all the favor of showing us the human side of a man worshipped by so many. . . . It's human and genuine and welcoming to see the layers of humanity she holds open. . . . Michelle Obama's story can maybe inspire you to find a path for your own story." --Shonda Rhimes, Shondaland "A complex, accomplished life recounted with confidence and candor . . . Every page sparkles with directness and grace." --Douglas Brinkley, The Boston Globe

SynopsisI've Learned it's okay to recognize that self-worth comes wrapped in vulnerability, and that what we share as humans on this earth is the impulse to strive for better, always and no matter what. We become bolder in brightness. If you know your light, you know yourself. You know your light, you know yourself. You know your own story in an honest way. In my experience, this type of self-knowledge builds confidence, which in turn breeds calmness and an ability to maintain perspective, which leads, finally, to being able to connect meaningfully with others-and this to me is the bedrock of all things. One light feeds another. One strong family lends strength to more. One engaged community can ignite those around it. This is the power of the light we carry. Book jacket., #1 NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER - In an inspiring follow-up to her acclaimed memoir Becoming, former First Lady Michelle Obama shares practical wisdom and powerful strategies for staying hopeful and balanced in today's highly uncertain world. There may be no tidy solutions or pithy answers to life's big challenges, but Michelle Obama believes that we can all locate and lean on a set of tools to help us better navigate change and remain steady within flux. In The Light We Carry, she opens a frank and honest dialogue with readers, considering the questions many of us wrestle with: How do we build enduring and honest relationships? How can we discover strength and community inside our differences? What tools do we use to address feelings of self-doubt or helplessness? What do we do when it all starts to feel like too much? Michelle Obama offers readers a series of fresh stories and insightful reflections on change, challenge, and power, including her belief that when we light up for others, we can illuminate the richness and potential of the world around us, discovering deeper truths and new pathways for progress. Drawing from her experiences as a mother, daughter, spouse, friend, and First Lady, she shares the habits and principles she has developed to successfully adapt to change and overcome various obstacles--the earned wisdom that helps her continue to "become." She details her most valuable practices, like "starting kind," "going high," and assembling a "kitchen table" of trusted friends and mentors. With trademark humor, candor, and compassion, she also explores issues connected to race, gender, and visibility, encouraging readers to work through fear, find strength in community, and live with boldness. "When we are able to recognize our own light, we become empowered to use it," writes Michelle Obama. A rewarding blend of powerful stories and profound advice that will ignite conversation, The Light We Carry inspires readers to examine their own lives, identify their sources of gladness, and connect meaningfully in a turbulent world., #1 NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER * In an inspiring follow-up to her acclaimed memoir Becoming, former First Lady Michelle Obama shares practical wisdom and powerful strategies for staying hopeful and balanced in today's highly uncertain world.

Lots of life lessons
This memoir contains valuable life lessons, especially for parents and teachers. At least I wished I had read something like it when I was a young teacher. The author does a wonderful job in the audiobook.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

The Light We Carry is the perfect title. Inspiring!
The Light We Carry is well written and the kind of way I have tried to handle troubles all my life. It is no wonder I have liked Michelle Obama ever since she was the First Lady. She is smart & very down to Earth with everything she says & she doesn't leave out any details. Patti HarrisBestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Michelle Obama is a good writer. She is speaking to you, as the reader, like a therapist. It is like a self-help book. I liked it so much, I bought three of these books to give to family.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Michelle Obama How We Carry The Light
Michelle Obama delivers a tremendous number of insights into the decisions made in life whose outcomes are very much determined by the "energy" with which a person brings to the situation. She does so in a conversational, pleasant manner.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu
