“Becoming” by Michelle Obama, narrated by the author herself

In the tapestry of life, few threads are as vivid and transformative as the stories we tell ourselves and others about who we are and who we aspire to become. Michelle Obama’s “Becoming” is more than just an autobiography; it’s a beacon of hope, a testament to the unyielding strength of a woman who has continually surpassed the expectations of those around her and, importantly, her own. For me, this book was a journey — a mirror reflecting the trials and triumphs not just of an individual, but of every person who has ever dared to dream.

Having spent countless evenings woodworking in my workshop, the notion of shaping raw materials into something meaningful resonates deeply with me. Michelle Obama, through her words, does just that but with her life’s story. Each chapter carved out her experiences, beliefs, and the essence of her becoming, much like how every chisel stroke on wood reveals its hidden beauty and purpose.

I remember listening to “Becoming” during long walks through the Scottish Highlands, where the landscape’s rugged beauty and resilience echo Michelle’s own journey. The personal touch of her narration made each step feel like a stride alongside a mentor and friend, teaching me that we are all works in progress, continuously evolving and becoming.

My mother and sister, during their visit from overseas, shared this auditory adventure with me. We found ourselves discussing over dinner not just Michelle’s story but our own stories of becoming — how we’ve navigated the complexities of life’s choices, triumphs, and setbacks. This book, much like the shared moments in the Louvre following the Da Vinci Code’s trail, became a medium for connecting our experiences with something larger than ourselves.

“Becoming” is not just Michelle Obama’s story; it’s a canvas where each listener paints their own journey of self-discovery and resilience. From the South Side of Chicago to the halls of the White House, her journey inspires us to become more than what we thought possible, challenging us to dream big and work hard to achieve our goals.
