Nicole Avant On Taking Her Mother’s Legacy And Creating An Energy With Memoir ‘Think You’ll Be Happy’
Nicole Avant shares wisdom she learned from her mother in the memoir 'Think You'll Be Happy' which is vying for Grammy consideration.
Avant shared her family’s personal story as well as her latest memoir Think You’ll Be Happy: Moving Through Grief With Grit, Grace and Gratitude in a conversation with multi-Grammy winning songwriter producer and Recording Academy Chairman emeritus Jimmy Jam at a recent reception at her and her husband Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos’ LA home. A publisher approached her, praising the documentary for its impact on Black history and encouraged Avant to continue sharing her life and family’s stories. “It’s not a coincidence to me, it’s not a mistake that my Mom’s last words were ‘Think You’ll be Happy’,” Avant said, “It’s a mantra for me, to keep my mind right, to stay on the positive as much as I can, to look at the upside as much as I can.”
