136: "Our definition of success is redefined by our family, not by what is expected of the norm." Transitioning to do something that matters with Genevieve and Chris Kruger
It's an overwhelming and exciting time for Genevieve and Chris Kruger as they are months away from retirement! As a retiring career military family, they share how they strategically planned for their transition - years in advance, their definition of success, how they sustained their marriage with faith and counseling, a glimpse into their plans for post-military life, and much more.
