In an interview with Oprah Winfrey in the Netflix special, The Light We Carry: Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey, Obama talks about how she slow ghosted people when she entered the White House.
When Winfrey asked her, “Did all your friends make the cut once you went to the White House?” Obama’s answer was, “Lost oxygen, couldn’t make the climb.”
Nope. No, they did not,” replies Michelle Obama. “Here’s the thing that I’ve learned: Stay open to friends… but when they show you who they are, you got to [believe them], and then move on.’”
“If my friends weren’t acting right? It was slow ghost,” she continued. “You know, the slow ghost — where you don’t cut ‘em off right away, but you just become less… available.”
