Tiffany Woodson, the Dallas interior designer behind a $45 million home, says she would likely have had a second child if not for her business, her first baby. She tells Alex Perry what that choice cost, why she says balance is not real, and what it is like to marry Darren Woodson, the three-time Super Bowl champion and Dallas Cowboys great, and still build a name of her own. Recorded inside Casa de Ondas, they also cover delegating, mentors and the wisdom nobody can take from you. What does it take to build something entirely yours next to a famous name? Tiffany shares how she did it.
