Chris Monaco

Chris Monaco spent over two decades navigating the high-stakes worlds of global music, entertainment, and brand culture. As an executive at powerhouses like IPG and Universal Music Group, he spent his career shaping the stories of the world’s biggest names until a midlife reckoning forced him to examine his own.

In the aftermath of that transition, Chris traded the boardroom for the archery range, searching for a path forward rooted in sobriety, discipline, and a beginner’s mind. What began as a search for clarity became a masterclass in the counterintuitive power of letting go.

Today, Chris is a competitive archer and author who writes on performance, philosophy, and the art of navigating major life transitions. Archery: The Art of Letting Go is his debut book.
