In a book teeming with advice, inspiring stories from decades in the home renovation and design industry, and DIY empowerment, THE NOVGRATZ CHRONICLES: Lessons Learned from Twenty-Five Years in Buying and Renovating Houses (Chronicle Books/PA Press; October 22) is an intimate look inside the work and family of renowned Novogratz powerhouse design duo, Robert and Cortney Novogratz.

Stars of HGTV’s Home by Novogratz and Bravo’s 9 by Design, authors of four books, owners of a highly successful furniture brand, and the parents of seven children, Robert and Cortney are personal friends of Heather’s and the conversation between Heather and Cortney dives deep into love, shared vision, design, parenting, building a business, and so much more.

Listeners will relish the wisdom gained from the chaos, from the mistakes made, and the details from their first house renovation project in Chelsea in the 1990s to reality tv and creation of furniture.

Heather and Cortney talk about the love story of Cortney and Robert, their shared passion for creating homes and a large family, how they work together, how they raised 7 children while creating a huge brand and empire of renovation, design and products.

Cortney also talks about being a woman in a man’s business and how she used her strappy instincts to make things work. Also, she shares thoughts on being a female leader, about creating clear lines of being in charge but as importantly, to listen to your team and others and keep learning.

It’s a fun, detailed convo on so many aspects of the rich life that is the Novogratz’s, and Heather even asks for practical tips re: design and places to shop.

You will gain so much insight into family, love, business, parenting, design and more in this chat with two good friends.

Note: Look for Cortney on HSN on November 4th with the new Novogratz Holiday Collection.
