Having a pragmatic approach to fulfilling one's dream, Petulia guides her clients on global journeys for a transformational experience: Utilizing SWOT Analysis, she guides her clients in forging new paths. In response to the Analysis, each client crafts a vision and sets multiple goals based on the analysis. She then coaches individuals daily, guiding them in reciting personal affirmations as they masterfully embrace the global experience and create mental space for something new.

"Connect with your heart; that is where your passion lies. Be true to your calling. Speak powerfully to yourself and use any kind of adversity to your advantage; let it fuel your drive to achieve the success you define for yourself. This is your life, and no one can live it better than you. And there is no better time like the present! " Don't make excuses; don't make apologies for living well. This is your life."
