I already loved Alicia Keys.  But then I came across her incredible song and video inspired by her own experience of parenting in a blended family and my love and respect for her went through the roof.  Alicia Keys, her husband, and her husband’s former wife are incredible role models of co-parenting in a blended family.

As you see all of the love and joy shared among all of the parents in this family along with the kids, I can imagine that it all seems too good to be true.  It’s not.  But it does require a commitment to do the inner work and to recognize that the child deserves to have a relationship with each of their parents.

This is what Dorcy Pruter, Conscious Co-Parenting Expert and Coach talks about during her interview for  The Mindful World Parenting Summit.  If you are in a situation where you are contemplating divorce or are already co-parenting, you absolutely need to watch this interview to learn about the powerful and revolutionary program Dorcy has devised that is proven so effective in getting people to come together and work cooperatively for the sake of the children, that it is now court mandated in some US jurisdictions.

In the meantime, check out Ms. Alicia Keys and her beautiful offering, Blended Family (What You Do For Love) ft. A$AP Rocky

May the good vibes be with you

(It’s what you do, what you do, what you do, what you do for love… this video chokes me up every time.  So good)
