Winner of the 2023 Grammy for Best Audio Book, Narration, and Storytelling Recording!
Audie Award Winner for Audiobook of the Year!
Narrated by Viola Davis
In my book, you will meet a little girl named Viola who ran from her past until she made a life-changing decision to stop running forever.
This is my story, from a crumbling apartment in Central Falls, Rhode Island, to the stage in New York City, and beyond. This is the path I took to finding my purpose but also my voice in a world that didn’t always see me.
As I wrote Finding Me, my eyes were open to the truth of how our stories are often not given close examination. We are forced to reinvent them to fit into a crazy, competitive, judgmental world. So I wrote this for anyone running through life untethered, desperate and clawing their way through murky memories, trying to get to some form of self-love. For anyone who needs reminding that a life worth living can only be born from radical honesty and the courage to shed facades and be . . . you.
Finding Me is a deep reflection, a promise, and a love letter of sorts to self. My hope is that my story will inspire you to light up your own life with creative expression and rediscover who you were before the world put a label on you.

This -audio-book has just popped up on my Storytel homepage and I was intrigued to listen to it, especially after seeing the "New York Times Best Seller" text written on the cover.Neither I have heard of this actress, nor have seen any of her shows. When I started to listen, her narrating immediately clicked with me. As a person who has listened to Oprah sooo many times, I've loved the way Viola Davis speaks as her narrative reminded me of Oprah. She really overcame so many struggles in life, she is a true survivor and also a great inspiration to all people who might be bullied, oppressed, excluded from things due to their color, background, gender, sexual orientation etc. I like the fact that we wouldn't know any of her struggles if she didn't share them with us and if we only looked at her success stories.Towards the end, I could sense she was connecting beautiful things that happened later in her life to the -existence of- god. I am not fully convinced about this, but still okay

Viola’s life through her experiences, her pen and her voice is so touching!Despite all the social and economical setbacks, she has built a successful life and managed to embrace and reconcile with all the negativity that had happened to her! It is inspiring and anybody can learn at least a lesson from her life!
