Last night I listened to the insightful, comforting, wise, and discerning words of my #ForeverFirstLady @michelleobama. I knew it would be a meaningful experience but had no idea it would pierce my soul. It is rare I have someone that looks like me, with similar ways of thinking about and experiencing the world, bring such insight to the hopes, challenges, and fears that keep me up at night. I can’t say enough about what that meant to me. And if that wasn’t enough, BARACK OBAMA surprised us all! I LOST my mind and my edges!!! The last time I was in the same place with the Obamas was on election night 2008 at Grant Park! Feeling full and blessed! #IAmBecoming #444Eva #GoHigh #LeadWithHopeNotFear A post shared by Dr. Jessica Barron (@drjessicabarron) on Nov 18, 2018 at 5:40pm PST 5 / 8 View this post on Instagram My mom went to see our Forever First Lady Michelle Obama last night.
