Kris has an amazing story on the personal impact of her work on her business. Her husband John was diagnosed with colon cancer. His diagnosis and his treatment was extremely aggressive.

Her “Win The Hour, Win The Day” practices allowed her to keep her business fully intact. It allowed her to provide normalcy for her family and to be there for John right up until his final days.

It has allowed her to live without regret because she knew that John was happy and well cared for until his final moments. She was able to be present to everything and manage all the important details and endless tasks.

She was able to Win the Hour, Win The Day, when the Win's were more important than words could possibly describe.

After this experience she realized these practices could help other business owners and their employees. So putting pen to paper she wrote her first book.

Dao says "At Oak Rocket we look at our clients, partners and staff, as all being on a mutual journey of success. We just went through and really honed in on the fact we’re in the middle and provide value on both sides of the transaction. Then when I looked at the eco-system it made a lot of sense to introduce my clients to each other in hopes they could do business together. Literally some of them have done millions in business together. I also speak to women at AWS and offer to mentor them, to help them grow.

Look outward to see how you can make others successful. Once I started really focusing on making everyone around me a hero, it was like rocket fuel. Pun intended."
