A wise and inspiring guide to creating a happy and healthy blended family by Mashonda Tifrere with contributions from her co-parents--Swizz Beatz and his wife, Grammy-Award winning singer and songwriter Alicia Keys. In January 2010, founder of ArtLeadHer Mashonda Tifrere and music producer Swizz Beatz finalized their divorce. When Swizz married award-winning singer/songwriter Alicia Keys, a new dynamic was born--three adults who loved and were deeply committed to raising Mashonda and Swizz's four-year old son Kasseem. In Blend, Tifrere draws on the insights they gained from their journey as well as advice from family therapists, parenting experts, and other blending families, to provide an invaluable resource for blended families. Statistics show that one in three Americans is now a step-parent, stepchild, step-sibling or other member of a blended family. The number of first time marriages or romantic relationships that end in divorce or breakups and the high percentage of remarriages and new relationships that involve children demand a unique, life-affirming approach to processing the end of one relationship and the rebirth of a new familial dynamic with the well-being of children at its center. In this book, Tifrere shares intimate details on how she and her co-parents used communication, patience and love to create an environment where they were able to work as a team and all the children involved could thrive. Blend will inspire a generation of families.
Alicia Keys ist eine der bedeutendsten Musikerinnen unserer Zeit und eine Ikone der internationalen Natürlichkeitsbewegung. In ihrer Autobiografie erzählt sie von ihrem Werdegang, ihren Erfolgen und Niederlagen. Sie thematisiert Selbstbestimmung, Selbstwert und eine individuelle Definition von Weiblichkeit und wird so zu einem generationenübergreifenden Vorbild für starke Frauen. Die legendäre Pop-Ikone hat die Welt mit ihren gefühlvollen Texten und ihrem außergewöhnlichen Stimmumfang begeistert, doch abseits des Rampenlichts kämpfte sie mit persönlichen Tragödien, wie der herausfordernden Beziehung zu ihrem Vater und dem Druck, den Erwartungen an weibliche Perfektion gerecht zu werden. Alicia hinterfragt in ihrem Werk, wer sie wirklich ist und wie sie die Wahrheit über sich selbst annehmen kann. Sie bricht mit den Klischees von Weiblichkeit und findet ihren eigenen Wert als moderne Frau, selbstbestimmt und authentisch. Diese Autobiografie ist nicht nur eine fesselnde Beschreibung ihres Lebens, sondern auch ein Aufruf, das eigene Selbst zu definieren und die wahre Identität zu leben. Alicia teilt ihre Musik und ihre Seele mit uns und bringt uns der Wahrheit näher, nach der wir alle suchen.
