All of Me: Spirit, Survival & Sacred Love is a powerful collection of poetry and prose that explores the sacred journey of healing, ancestry, love, and self-return through the lens of a Black woman deeply rooted in Gullah Geechee, Southern, and spiritual traditions.
Spanning generations of resilience-from the Low Country to the concrete streets of Los Angeles-Emily Clarida writes with raw truth, ancestral fire, and spiritual grace. These poems are more than verses-they are soul sermons, memory maps, and prayers written in blood and breath.
Divided into nine chapters, this collection reflects the layered path of becoming:
- From self-affirmation and spiritual awakening
- To love, loss, and longing
- To resistance, rage, and rebirth
- To the quiet act of coming home to one's truest self.
Clarida speaks on code-switching, trauma, womanhood, survival, pleasure, generational pain, and the divine wisdom passed through dreams and bloodlines. Whether reflecting on the loss of her parents, spiritual altars, or navigating corporate spaces that suffocate truth, her words are intimate, unflinching, and liberating.
For readers of Audre Lorde, Ntozake Shange, bell hooks, and Sonia Sanchez, this book is a companion in both grief and glory-a poetic offering to anyone who has ever tried to gather their brokenness into something holy.
This book is not about being unbroken. It is about being brave enough to honor the cracks-and bold enough to gather them into art.
