Raised in a military family

In the book

“[T]hey choose certain people for certain missions. And I think in life that’s how we have to be. We become like the five people we spend most of our time with; Oh, we’ve got to be picky, and you might have to fire a few people who don’t belong in that inner circle because they can’t help you be your best and further your purpose.”
Also, she has included some interviews with current and former military families, generals, and other officers.
She also has kept stories from her father’s career to enlighten how and why military lessons are so effective at changing lives both on and off the battlefield.
The book is part memoir and part motivational life guide.
“I think we’ve lost our patience with hearing the other side because we’re so quick for a comeback so our point is heard and we’re proved right. I think this book shows people that you can strategize, and you can negotiate, and have a contingency plan for when you’re wrong and miss the mark, as well as owning your moment when you’re right.”
She offers nine rules for getting by, including “Recruit your special forces,” “Stay ready,” “Wear camo,” “Unleash the power of integrity” and “Think like a general,” among others.
