Imagine TRULY living your best life! Right now, in your life, are you truly Remembering to Live? Do you truly feel the day, and feel the gratitude for the miracle of your life? Or have you gotten, perhaps unknowingly, so busy, so distracted, so numb with routine and responsibilities, or with worry and overwhelm or perhaps even with goals and ambitions, that it’s left you feeling disconnected from yourself, from your body, from feeling of true gratitude for the miracle of being alive? Today we’re talking about grace, grit, gratitude and how to Remember to LIVE with one of the most inspirational, iconic, legendary women I know…Nicole Avant!
Ambassador Avant is an Award-Winning Producer, Including of the Academy Award Winning Film Six-Triple Eight, Entrepreneur, Philanthropist & Former US Ambassador to The Bahamas and The Author of the Bestselling Book “Think You’ll Be Happy”, a spirit-lifting memoir on how to turn pain into purpose, how to live in gratitude, and how to face down tragedy and turn it into love.
Nicole was raised surrounded by some of the most extraordinary legends of our time and Her parents—entertainment mogul, The Black Godfather, Clarence Avant, and legendary philanthropist, Jacqueline Avant—turned their home into a place of refuge and inspiration for A generation of notable icons and culture-shifting artists. In December 2021, an unthinkable tragedy struck: her mother Jacqueline was fatally shot by a home intruder. In her incredible memoir, Think You’ll Be Happy, Nicole turns the pain of her family’s loss into the fuel that pushes her forward, Think You’ll Be Happy—her mom’s last words to Nicole—provides a roadmap for anyone working to remain positive and anchored in hope.
