Visualize, Strategize or Execute, Kris meets people where they
are
at by integrating his extensive business strategy experience with
proven tools and a fun attitude. Once individuals are aware of

amazing, well-balanced life can look like. From here they build a
simplified strategy with clear action steps to achieve their
dreams.
As a result, people begin to think differently, dream and thrive.
Kris and his wife, Reka, provide talks, workshops and retreats focused on applying the Life on Your Terms methodologies to couples, individuals, and teams.

dreams.
