1000000994.jpgMeet Meetra. When this author isn’t busy working on her next books or helping people with disabilities, she loves participating in adaptive sports and mentoring. She encourages people to get out of their comfort zones and challenge themselves. We’re so fortunate to have her as a member of the Network!

What's your story? Tell us a little bit about yourself.

Meetra is an author living with Spina Bifida. Her first book is entitled, Dis-ability to This-ability, and it can be found at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Walmart, Kindle, and here.
She also works as a Community Support Manager for adults with disabilities. 

How are you involved with self-determination? Why did you join the SD Network?

Meetra explains that she has always strived to push herself and challenge what she’s capable of doing. She wanted to join because she wanted to continue putting herself out there and helping others challenge themselves. 

Tell us some good news - what's the most exciting thing happening for you (or in Wisconsin) in terms of self-determination?

Meetra shares with us that she’s working on her next few books and she has a few speaking engagements lined up. She has also started an adaptive fitness group class at Peter Kraus Fitness. 

What tip or resource would you like to share with people who want to be more self-determined? 

“You can start anywhere, from the smallest aspect,” she tells us. She explains that staying in your comfort zone does not allow us to grow and thrive. 

What are some of your hobbies?

In her free time, Meetra enjoys writing, participating in adaptive fitness, and watching movies. She also loves mentoring others with disabilities and volunteering with dogs.
