This is a short, sweet, soul-searcher type of book. You can read it in one sitting and it has a refreshing message.
Shriver, niece of the Kennedy family and wife of Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, reflects on how up until a certain point, her life had wholly been about living up to others' expectations. During an awakening, she realized it was okay to not always have a plan of action for where you're headed next. Shriver encourages each reader to be an individual and to not be afraid of changing, evolving and "updating" oneself accordingly. She goes on to tell about the graduation speech she gave for her son's senior high school class and how afterward, students and parents urged her to turn the speech into a book. And Just Who Will You Be is the result.
Here's an excerpt:
"...sometimes life happens to you and--bingo!--your idea of who you think you are just goes up in smoke. That's what happened to me. One day out of nowhere...I was asked to resign. ....Just like that, my career was gone, and with it went the person I'd been for twenty-five years."
