In addition to her successful book and acting career, she’s also celebrated as a health advocate by a new generation of fans who value the advice on her popular website, The Kind Life (www.thekindlife.com), for everything from healthy living to saving the planet’s resources. Regardless of how many hats she wears, it was obvious to us that her most important role is being a mom, as the photo shoot came to a sudden halt when three-year-old Bear Blu arrived to visit the set. It was a treat for everyone to see Alicia pushing Bear in the “magic” backyard swing, tumbling in the grass, and kissing, tickling and laughing as she joyfully tossed him into the air. Their happiness was so contagious that our photographer declined to take a break and kept snapping away in hopes of capturing some precious moments. By the time the photo shoot resumed, the conversation turned to Alicia’s newly released book, The Kind Mama, and her upcoming acting roles. It’s clearly an exciting time for Alicia, but even with so much on her plate, she’s managed to take on another huge project that is important to her—working with Garden of Life® to introduce Kind Organics, a full line of multivitamins that are kinder to the body and kinder to the world.
