“I Am Maria: A Journey Through Conversation” Featuring Maria Shriver and Special Guest Anne Lamott
We’re so glad you’re here with us to watch Maria’s unforgettable conversation full of wisdom, wit, and radical honesty with her dear friend, New York Times bestselling author Anne Lamott!
This is not your typical book talk. With equal parts humor and heart, Maria and Anne dive into the complexities of identity, grief, forgiveness, and rebuilding as they unpack shedding the past, finding joy, the “reporter poetry” from Maria’s new book I Am Maria.
Through live poetry readings, unexpected revelations, and unfiltered friendship, this special episode of I Am Maria: A Journey Through Conversation is a moving testament to what healing really looks like: not linear, not perfect, but fully alive.
“I’m hoping that with these poems we can connect through our heartbreak and through our healing, because it's one of the few things I think we all have in common,” Maria shares.
Nothing is off-limits as they explore how laughter can coexist with sorrow, how poetry can open doors that silence has kept shut, and how we each carry “padded doors” inside ourselves that keep us from feeling seen. Reflecting on Maria’s healing journey, Maria and Anne also examine the importance of releasing the burdens of self-criticism and old narratives in order to dance freely into new life.
