My new Bible

I truly appreciate the way Michelle talks about the world and shares real experience and real words. If more people were kind and honest and classy, the world would be such a better place. She makes the listener feel worthy. We live in a world that doesn’t do that very often. Thank you, Mrs. Obama.

Role model

We should all be so lucky to have a "kitchen table" of friends. Definitely wise advice!

Love, Honesty, Tools and the Kitchen Table.

Loved listening to all the conversations and learning a little about each individual. So refreshingly different from the rubbish printed in cheap tabloids and social media. Also enjoyed the tools that were shared to help young people navigate their way through life.
