Please join us in celebrating Maria Shriver’s I Am Maria: My Reflections and Poems on Heartbreak, Healing, and Finding Your Way Home. A book like no other, it blends Maria’s hard-earned wisdom with deeply personal poetry, reminding readers that strength, love, and hope await on the other side of our hardest days.

Drawing from her own life experiences, I Am Maria tells the story of how Maria emerged from heartbreak and uncertainty – universal moments in every life lived fully –with renewed clarity and strength. The poems in this collection speak to timeless themes of love, loss, longing, and healing, offering readers a comforting reminder that hope can be found even after the most difficult moments.

Maria’s legacy is built on social impact, deep empathy, and a profound understanding of human connection. Through her leadership, activism, and media presence, she continues to inspire and uplift others. Now, with the release of I Am Maria, she offers these deeply personal poems as a guide for those navigating their own life journeys.

Through her intimate reflections, Maria invites readers to shed self-criticism, embrace every part of themselves, and discover the profound healing that comes with forgiveness and self-compassion. The book encourages readers to rediscover poetry as a tool for self-exploration, paving the way to uncover a deeper version of themselves.
