Michelle Obama

September 10th, 2008 by JD

It was my great pleasure to see Michelle Obama speak live last week during the National Democratic Convention. I missed out on the BIG show August 26th, but found myself listening to her in person at a small caucus the following day. Her power, grace, and unwavering belief in this country was truly amazing to witness.

Over the course of the week Michelle spoke with conviction about knowing your stake in life and being connected to what matters on a personal level. I was moved by her words again and again. Even watching her on TV it is obvious…she is a leader! MIchelle has a presence on that huge stage commanding focus, drive, and passion from the audience. Seeing her made me even more proud to be a woman.

“…the only limit to the height of your achievements is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work hard for them.”  - Michelle Obama 8.26.08

Dream BIG, Work Hard!
