From the New York Times bestselling team behind the I Am series comes a bighearted celebration of individuality, of being comfortable in our own skin, respecting others for who they are, living authentically, and loving ourselves. For anyone who's ever felt like too much or not enough, I Am Me is an affirming reminder that difference is what makes life beautiful--and that each of us matters, just as we are.

      For fans of Anne Lamott and Glennon Doyle, this original essay collection by #1 New York Times bestselling author and mindfulness expert Susan Verde explores the transformative power of positive self-talk and the lessons learned from motherhood and self-acceptance. Verde has long battled her inner critic, a voice that insisted she wasn't enough. Through yoga, meditation, and mindfulness, she sought to quiet this negativity. However, upon becoming a parent, that critical voice grew louder, challenging her ability to parent three young children with compassion and kindness. With humor, heart, and vulnerability, Verde shares her parenting journey, revealing both her missteps and moments of joy—from supporting her child through mental health challenges to navigating gender affirmation, coping with the loss of her father, and preparing to send her teenagers off to college. Throughout the collection, she offers mantras that encourage readers to practice self-compassion, aiming to live and parent authentically. Verde emphasizes the importance of crafting our own inner narratives filled with self-love, urging us to listen to the voice that affirms our worthiness. Ultimately, she inspires readers to embrace their stories and cultivate a mindset of freedom and acceptance.

    • Czego możemy nauczyć się dzięki byciu rodzicem i samoakceptacji? Jaką moc mają dobre słowa kierowane do samego siebie? Autorka bestsellerowej serii dla dzieci „Ja. Uważność i emocje”, specjalistka od jogi i uważności, tym razem wraca z poruszającą i wzmacniającą książką dla dorosłych czytelników i czytelniczek. Przez dziesięciolecia Susan Verde zmagała się ze swoim wewnętrznym krytykiem, głosem, który mówił jej, że nie jest wystarczająca. Joga, medytacja i praktyki uważności stały się jej sposobem na wyciszenie tego głosu. Jednak kiedy została mamą, wewnętrzny krytyk stał się głośniejszy niż kiedykolwiek. Macierzyństwo okazało się ostatecznym sprawdzianem jej praktyki. Z humorem, sercem i rozbrajającą wrażliwością Verde dzieli się historiami ze swojego życia jako matki, córki, człowieka i osoby uzależnionej od kawy. Ujawnia swoje błędy i największe chwile radości – od wspierania jednego ze swoich dzieci w walce o zdrowie psychiczne przez utratę ojca i odnowienie więzi z matką do ogromnej dumy, ale i bólu, związanego z przygotowaniami do wysłania trójki nastolatków na studia i zmierzenia się z pustym gniazdem. W książkę Jedno miłe słowo autorka wplata mantry wspierające rozmowę ze sobą z czułością i łagodnością. Uczy nas – i siebie - słuchać głosu, który mówi nam, że jesteśmy wystarczający. I tego, jak sprawić, aby słowa pełne miłości stały się naszą historią.
