NATIONAL BESTSELLER • What’s your journey of becoming? Based on Michelle Obama’s bestselling memoir, this gorgeous journal features an intimate and inspiring introduction by the former First Lady and more than 150 inspiring questions and quotes to help you discover—and rediscover—your story.
 
“It’s not about being perfect. It’s not about where you get yourself in the end. There’s power in allowing yourself to be known and heard, in owning your unique story, in using your authentic voice. And there’s grace in being willing to know and hear others. This, for me, is how we become.” —Michelle Obama
 
In writing Becoming, a work of deep reflection and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle Obama shared her own extraordinary journey to help create space for others to tell their stories and to give people the courage to discover the power of their own voice. With this journal, she now provides you with the encouragement to find value in your own personal journey of becoming. Printed on cream writing paper, with a grosgrain ribbon, foil-stamped cover, and removable half-jacket, Becoming: A Guided Journal for Discovering Your Voice includes thought-provoking prompts designed to help you reflect on your personal and family history; your goals, challenges, and dreams; what moves you and brings you hope; and what future you imagine for yourself and your community.Writes Mrs. Obama in the Introduction to the Becoming journal, “I hope you’ll use this journal to write down your experiences, thoughts, and feelings, in all their imperfections, and without judgment. . . . We don’t have to remember everything. But everything we remember has value.”
 
These pages will help you capture your own voice and journey so you can nurture your sense of belonging. Inside, you’ll find an opportunity not only to take heart in the experiences that brought you to where you are today, but also to feel empowered to take those next steps, wherever they might lead.

5.0 out of 5 stars Poignant Questions Mixed With Lighter Prompts For Daily Journaling
Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2020
Verified Purchase
I'm a writer and enjoy using writing prompts as warm-ups, so I've been through dozens of these types of books.

I really like that Mrs. Obama provided plenty of space to write so I can make this a dedicated, purposeful, keepsake journal instead of just a prompt idea book.

She thoughtfully has a cover wrap showing her picture, blurb, ISBN, etc. It pops right off so you're left with a lovely hardbound book which is about YOU rather than her.

The prompts are thoughtfully mixed, so you don't get stuck in a rut of ten in a row which are deeply introspective. There's pacing, so you'll have a few which are quite poignant, followed by something light like making a list of your favorite vegetables, followed by a lovey question about your grandmother or favorite music. I enjoyed the variety.

I think you could approach this journal in one of two ways. You could self-edit as you write and pass the resulting book down to your children and grandchildren. Or, you could use this as a therapeutic workbook for getting through a rut in your life and then burn it. Your choice.

I'm also pleased by the pricing. The books were $9 each and buy 2, get one free when I made my purchase. I'll give several as gifts.

Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2020

Beautiful. Clean format, love the blue colour scheme. I love the open date format and the prompts for each page. You don't HAVE to do it daily, or even in order, but when you want to capture your memories and feelings it is there. I think in the intro Michelle did a great job explaining that it is more about taking the time to capture memories that is important, not necessarily the big events that hapoen in our lives but even the small parts and little random details that evoke a memory or feeling in the distant future. Even if you don't like Michelle Obama I woukd still invite you to pick this up. It is more focused on YOU and not so much about Michelle. All politics aside, it is a wonderful prompt journal that I would recommend to anyone and more unique than I have found it to be where I really have to stop and think about things.

Lots of great writing prompts. Love that you can jump around within the book in any order and just fill in the date you completed each page.

The only downside is that the journal does not lay flat when opened. While I’m writing I have to actively fight the book to stay open, resulting in a sore hand and sloppy handwriting.

Compré pensando que era el libro... Pero no es, fue error mío, porque dice que es un diario.. no puse atención. Pero fue una buena sorpresa. Es un diario que te hace preguntas muy personales, que he hace pensar mucho sobre tu historia, y es bastante terapéutico. Es básicamente una manera de escribir su historia of "becoming" . Me gustó y ya estoy escribiendo. Ahora tengo que encontrar el libro jeje
