Nationwide — Michelle Obama revealed she’s in therapy and finally focusing on herself, now that her daughters are grown and her time in the political spotlight is over.Speaking on Jay Shetty’s podcast, the former First Lady said she’s entering a new chapter where her own needs come first, TMZ reported. With Sasha and Malia living their own lives and her public role slowing down, Michelle shared that therapy has become an important part of her personal growth.
She described therapy as a form of coaching — a way to break old habits and let go of years of guilt. She appreciates having someone neutral to talk to — someone who doesn’t have personal ties to her past.
Michelle’s choice to step back from the spotlight, especially at Barack Obama’s recent events, raised speculation about their relationship. Rumors of divorce made rounds online, but she addressed it, saying there’s no trouble between them. She emphasized the shift is about self-care, not separation.
