  Kris welcomes Kaye Boehning of Tomorrow’s Promise Montessori Schools, located in the small community of Huntsville, Texas. Kaye talks about how she got into the child care industry, learning to delegate and elevate, and what practical steps she took to work on her business and not have to be in the business for every step. Kaye talks with Kris about what sets Tomorrow’s Promise apart, some fun Montessori school facts, and how she and her team are scaling for growth.

She is the first person ever to get the award in the brand new category.   [4:50] Tomorrow’s Promise is located in the small community of Huntsville, Texas.
