Michelle Obama has been recently promoting her new book, “The Light We Carry,” where she provides advice on overcoming difficult circumstances. She stopped by the Stephen Colbert show, talking about the importance of being a role model for her children. She provided Barack Obama’s run for office as an example. “With my fear alone I could have changed the course of history,” she said. “But I didn’t. I said yes.”

“I didn’t want to be, like so many people in my family who got stuck in their fears. And didn’t achieve what they could because their worlds were small. I didn’t want to be that example for my girls,” she said. “But I had to practice my way through that anxious feeling.”
