For businesswoman Gerri Hayes, being told that “you can’t do it” just makes her more determined to succeed. Gerri shares her survival story as a single mother of two young children who moved to Hawaii to take a human-services job that didn't materialize.

It was hailed by Pacific Business News as 2011's top female-owned business in the Islands, with revenues that year of $37 million.
