If you've ever wondered whether best-selling author Gabrielle Blair -- A.K.A. Design Mom) -- finds parenting fun and easy or just makes it look that way, you're going to love this conversation! We're talking about the new book she co-authored with her husband Ben, The Kids Are All Right: Parenting With Confidence in an Uncertain World)*, *and wow does she have great ideas!

She shares her tips for defining and creating a "family culture," reducing parenting stress, finding more joy and happiness in the process, and making sure you have your eye on "the long game." Plus, I ask her how the heck she gets her kids to voluntarily haul rubble and strip paint in the house they're renovating! Trust me -- you'll totally steal her advice.
