Petra is a multi-passionate creative with a handmade business, social media and web design business and coaching dreamers and visionaries into taking action. Petra grew up in foster care since the age of 2 and has overcome many challenges and adversities despite the odds, always believing in finding a dream that leaves her fulfilled by living her life according to her own rules. What started as a vision to owning her business, started 10 years ago when Petra created her first business, Hippie’s Creations. And because Petra is very much a DIY person, she learned how to set up a blog and manage her social media and emerged was her geeky side and created her second business, Unusual Bits. But after her son was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder at the age of 4, life became a 24 hour crisis, leaving his life in limbo until he underwent his third liver transplant. Petra realized that life is too short and she needed to stop talking about her dream of helping others and started taking action. She became trained in mental health counseling but realized that in order to be present for her son’s medical needs and her own dream, that helping transform the life of others was her passion. Petra uses what she has learned through life and her training to take a dream and turn it into reality and does this with her third business, Petra Monaco - Transformational Life Coach. Petra is passionate about the art of handmade and believes that everyone deserves a shot at creating freedom however they envision it and feels strongly about the fact that you don’t need a sob story to do so. Petra is helping women like herself to move forward and overcome the challenges in making their own dreams real through her business, one-on-one coaching and Jump Up & Shine program. She has written two books, both based on real life events of her own upbringing, and of her son's medical journey, and continues to create her own freedom pursuing her own dreams.
