Former first lady Michelle Obama says she’s embracing her “last chapter” as a podcaster while recording a live episode with her brother at SXSW London: “The choices I make now are going to be for me — not for my husband, my kids, the country, the world.”
“We've been out of the White House for 10 years, and I swear it went like that. My daughters [Malia and Sasha Obama] will be 28 and 25 this year. So this next chapter I want to be mindful about it, so that it doesn't just slip away. I want to be clear about how I'm spending my time, how much of it I'm giving away to others… The choices that I make now are going to be for me, not for my husband, not for my kids, not for the country, not for the world, because this is it. And at some point, it's important for our generation to step out of the way and be prepared to step out of the way so that the next generation can really sit in these seats."
