​

I AM Conversations began as a storytelling series created and hosted by Anamaria Dávalos, Maria Lanas, and Maclovia Martell.

Through intimate, unscripted conversations, the original series explored transformation, creativity, healing, consciousness, and the many ways people turn life’s challenges into purpose. The conversations brought together individuals from art, science, space exploration, humanitarian work, leadership, spirituality, and personal transformation, offering different perspectives on resilience, imagination, service, and the human experience.

Rather than traditional interviews, the conversations were conceived as open exchanges shaped by curiosity, presence, and a genuine interest in the person behind the story. The intention was not to provide a single answer or belief system, but to create space for different experiences, ideas, disciplines, and ways of understanding the world.

Maria Lanas served as co-creator and co-host of I AM Conversations through March 2026. She is no longer affiliated with the series or its current programming.

 

THE SERIES TODAY

Since that original chapter, I AM Conversations has continued with a different focus and programming direction.

The current series explores stories involving profound life changes and transformation, including near-death experiences, grief, healing, faith shifts, ET experiences, personal breakthroughs, major life transitions, and unexpected encounters.

The current programming and editorial direction are produced independently of Maria Lanas and do not represent her work, views, or creative involvement.

 

THE ORIGINAL VISION

At its core, I AM Conversations was created from a simple idea: that listening deeply to another person's story can change the way we understand both them and ourselves.

The original series brought together people whose lives, professions, beliefs, and experiences were often very different. Those differences were part of the conversation.

Curiosity was central to the original concept. The purpose was not to arrive at a predetermined conclusion, but to ask questions, explore ideas, listen to lived experience, and allow each conversation to unfold in its own direction.

Through stories of creativity, adversity, discovery, loss, courage, service, transformation, and possibility, I AM Conversations sought to create a space in which different perspectives could coexist and the complexity of the human experience could remain exactly that—complex.

The original series was grounded in the belief that meaningful conversation can expand awareness, inspire curiosity, encourage reflection, and deepen our understanding of one another.
