How do we build enduring and honest relationships?What tools do we use to address feelings of self-doubt?What do we do when it all starts to feel like too much? In her bestselling follow-up to the worldwide phenomenon Becoming, Michelle Obama shares practical wisdom and insightful reflections to help us consider the important questions that many of us wrestle with.

In doing so, she shares the tools, habits and principles that she has developed to successfully adapt to change, like starting kind, going high, and assembling a kitchen table of trusted friends and mentors.
