“Go High”

by David Meyer

Former First Lady Michelle Obama provides warm, heartfelt advice for coping with life's difficulties, honoring your strengths and vesting in self-kindness.

Former First Lady Michelle Obama, a graduate of Princeton University and Harvard Law School, served as an associate dean at the University of Chicago and VP of its Medical Center and practiced law in a big Chicago firm. In her second book, following her bestselling autobiography, she offers useful life tools and recounts how she relied on her parents’ wisdom, her friends, hard work and her strong sense of self. Obama writes of befriending her inner critic and confronting her fear of change. She shares her famous motto: “When they go low, we go high.”
