"Maybe it's not the daiquiri that's broken."

Sam Plavins sat in a Toronto convention centre, surrounded by thousands of the most successful financial advisors in the world, pretending to be one of them. She had the title. The clients. The gold business cards. She had built exactly the life her father had envisioned for her. And she couldn't feel a thing.

The math in her life didn’t make sense. The two kids plus the hot husband, even the semi-stoned sheepdog. Why wasn’t the formula adding up?

On the brink of cracking, Sam did what any burned-out overachiever might: she bought a plane ticket and walked across Spain. Not because she had a plan. Because she had no other ideas left. Eight-hundred kilometres seemed a reasonable distance to sort out her shit.

Under a face-melting sun, she spent thirty-three days unravelling, while the Camino continued to get the last word. Pilgrim brothels. A bathroom floor reckoning. A truth she’d spent decades outrunning. And somewhere in the Meseta, between the nothing and the nothing, Sam found the one thing she'd been too busy to look for.

The Sam I Am is for every woman who has quietly given everything to everyone else and is starting to wonder what's left of herself. Narrated by the author herself, this audiobook brings an added layer of intimacy to an already deeply personal story. Meaning. Miracles. Potato chips. And a walk that changed everything.
