Gayle sent a bouquet for Robin to congratulate her on her new book

The noted author first spoke about her book, which released 12 April, on GMA with her co-hosts Michael and George Stephanopoulos back in September.

The 61-year-old revealed that the book came from learning how to wake up each day feeling positive and believing that things would be good, and was also inspired by her early morning wisdom sessions with her 'glam fam' that she shares on social media.

"Drawing on advice and knowledge she gleaned from conversations with loved ones, spiritual practices, and life experiences, Robin offers a window into how she feeds her own mind, spirit, and soul and invites readers to do the same," the synopsis of the book reads.
