Toledo, Ohio Apr 16, 2026 (Issuewire.com) In an era that often demands perfection, author, singer, and actress Ingrid Ladawn Poole offers a refreshing and raw alternative with the release of her debut collection, The Many Faces of Me: (Ingrid Uncut). This deeply personal volume of poetry and short stories serves as a transparent roadmap for navigating lifes “thrill, sorrow, and hope” while remaining anchored in divine purpose.
More than a memoir, The Many Faces of Me is a rhythmic and soul-stirring exploration of the “many faces” we wear to satisfy the worldand the courage required to unmask them before God. Drawing from her background in the performing arts and her years in radio ministry, Pooles writing possesses a lyrical quality that invites readers to “trust the process” and find healing through honest reflection.
A Journey Through Legacy, Loss, and Liberation
At its core, the book is a journey through the authors emotional evolution, beginning as a “scared little girl” and maturing into a woman who walks with “fear banished.” Through a series of punchy, heartfelt entries, Poole recounts the moments that shaped her:
- Honoring a Spiritual Legacy: The collection serves as a powerful tribute to her late parents, Pastor John Wallace Poole and Missionary Shirley Dean Poole, as well as her late brother, Apostle Christopher Poole. The story demonstrates how intentional spiritual foundations create ripple effects that sustain us long after our loved ones have passed.
- The “Uncut” Reality of Faith: By addressing difficult themesfrom the heavy ache of grief to the frustrations of “Sticky Notes”the book offers comfort and perspective to those who feel they are “Almost There” but havent yet arrived.
- Healing Through Vulnerability: Poole encourages readers to “get tickled til ya laugh out loud” while also making space for the soul to cry out. The book acts as a bridge, helping readers articulate complex emotions that are often kept dormant for years.
I began putting my thoughts on paper in 2015 and never looked back, says Poole. My prayer for you is to find something in this book to help you laugh, cry, think, and begin to seek healing.
