I Am Maria is a powerful collection of Maria Shriver's own poems that grapple with identity, grief, love, loss, longing, heartbreak and healing. Her deeply personal poems address life's transitions, challenges, successes and failures. Vulnerable and deeply moving, Shriver's words are a collection of her life experiences woven into poetry to inspire everyone on their own journey. It is also an invitation for readers to write their own personal poetry, reclaiming the art as accessible to everyone and a tool to look within. I Am Maria is a roadmap for anyone trying to shed the labels, layers, and armour that holds us back from creating a wildly authentic and meaningful life. 'I never imagined writing poetry would help me embark On a journey deep into myself I never imagined that everything I sought or thought I needed Was within me all along' - from I Am Maria
