Zibby chats with Eliza Reid about her unexpected journey from Canadian farm girl to First Lady of Iceland. Eliza shares how her history-professor husband was persuaded by strangers to run for president, and how she navigated eight years in an unofficial role with no rulebook, four young kids, and a determination not to lose herself in the process.
