The Light We Carry by Michelle Obama

February 26, 2023 • Lauryn • Season 2 • Episode 5

Our forever First Lady, Michelle Obama, has gifted us with a manual for living life well. In her new book, The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times, she discusses partnering well, overcoming fear, intergenerational politics, parenting and so much more.

Lauryn and Alice chat about all of their favourite bits and shamelessly plug the book club they run, Melanin Pages! If you’re interested in books by and about Black Women, check it out here:
