Description

It's an age old question - how do you ensure your kids grow up to be successful?

A new book by an award-winning New York Times journalist tries to answer it.

Susan Dominus details six compelling stories in "The Family Dynamic" which uncovers how both parents and siblings help shape individual success.

Host Gurdeep Ahluwalia speaks to author Susan Dominus about her research and how her own family dynamic helped shape her.
