About this listen

What would you change in your life if you could silence the voice that tells you: you're not enough, keep quiet, you can't do it, or there is no space for you?

As we grow and move through the world, it shrinks us and puts us in boxes - tells us who we should be, what we're capable of, and who to love.

As a queer child of immigrants, Maria Thattil knows what it is like to struggle with belonging. To have confusing, disparate identities, none of them fitting traditional ideas of worth, power or success.

In Unbounded, she shares galvanising stories of what she has lived and learned through experiencing racism, sexism, financial hardship, intergenerational trauma, homophobia and mental health challenges.

Through it all, Maria held onto hope and belief that her experiences could be turned into power, which she proved when she became only the third woman of colour to represent Australia in the Miss Universe competition in 2021, and created a media platform fiercely advocating for empowerment, inclusion and equality.

Revealing ten steps to self-mastery, Unbounded offers a path towards active growth, fearless self-love and liberation.

It's time to break free of what binds you, and live up to all that you are.

Unbounded was truly an inspiring audiobook for me to listen to. I had no preconceived ideas as to what to expect but Unbounded is actually filled with really valuable content. Maria’s story covers many of life’s hardships and their consequences but it is her raw honesty that adds real credibility to her advice.

There were times whilst reading my heart broke hearing about Maria’s early injustices but then soared as I read about the accomplishments this remarkable woman has since achieved. Maria’s guidance isn’t just helpful, it is uplifting. I completed Unbounded feeling energised and more capable of navigating an even more fulfilling life. Plus having Maria narrate this audiobook herself with such passion made the overall experience so much better.

Maria is so much more than Australian model, author, social commentator, television personality and blogger. This book is testament to that. Thank you.

Really worthwhile. A "must listen" Audiobook

Maria’s voice is incredible, each word spoken with love, intent and vulnerability.

The lessons shared are not new but the perspective and stories Maria shares are completely unique. Being a queer, first generation immigrant myself having a relatable voice to listen to that can share something so openly and vulnerably make these timeless theories so applicable in my day to day,

Fantastic audiobook!

I loved listening to this audiobook, it talks through Maria’s inspiring life and is full of wisdom, great advice and is perfect for anyone dealing with self esteem issues who may not know their worth and need reminding, I for one found it to be just what the doctor ordered, that little kick in the butt that says “I can!”. Truly loved every minute.

So inspiring!

Very disappointing for me. I was looking for books on Manifesting and listened to the sample which was misleading. This is more of a memoir than a how to book. I won't be listening to it again, unlike most of the books I have bought on Audible.

Make sure you read the summary first
