If You Were My Daughter is a story of learning to hear your own voice, of one daughter's return to wholeness, and ultimately, a story of accepting that, despite all hope and longing, a mother's “best I could” can still fall short. Most of all, Marianne Richmond illuminates how the stories we're born into shape the ones we tell about ourselves―and reminds us that we have the powerful permission to develop a new relationship with what is difficult in our lives, to fully choose and embody who we are meant to be.
