This Is Me: A Journey of Healing, Growth and Becoming Myself: Bilingual English/Spanish Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798196145100)

Sherri Grieve grew up in a small Manitoba town with an empty fridge, hand-me-down clothes, and a home that never truly felt safe. She became the class clown because laughter was the only armor she had.

At twenty-three, she became a single mother and made a quiet promise: her son would grow up knowing a different kind of life than the one she had known.

What followed were years that probably should have broken her. Poverty. Homelessness. Cancer. Narcissistic abuse. Sexual assault. The slow unraveling of everything she had fought to build.

Somehow, she kept going anyway.

For her son.
For strangers.
For people who needed someone willing to sit with them in the dark.

Eventually, somewhere in the middle of surviving everything else, she started choosing herself too.

This Is Me is not the full story. It is a glimpse into the moments that shaped her, humbled her, challenged her, and ultimately forced her to rebuild a life she barely recognized at times.

Raw, honest, emotional, reflective, and at times unexpectedly funny, this memoir explores trauma, motherhood, healing, self-worth, fear, resilience, and what it truly means to start over after years spent simply surviving.

Because sometimes healing looks profound.

And sometimes it looks like sitting alone in your car thinking,

"What the actual hell is happening?"

This edition includes both English and Spanish translations.

Written with vulnerability, wit, and brutal honesty, This Is Me is for anyone who has ever wondered:

• Can I become someone different from where I came from?
• Can I heal without pretending the pain never happened?
• Can I rebuild my life after survival mode became my personality?

This book is a reminder that your past may shape you, but it does not have to define you.

And that even after everything, you are still allowed to become someone new.
