As in my own case, it wasn\u2019t just ONE thing that caused burnout. It was LIFE. Work, family, finances, world events, unfulfilled needs and dreams\u2026 they all are a part of our stories.<\/p>\n<p>After a few years of being a Life Coach, I needed to make a change. While my passion for coaching continued, I had more to offer\u2026 my decades of business experience were not being used! I also was missing some of the structure that a corporate environment offered. I began my search for a partner that could help me grow my coaching practice while guiding me with guardrails to ensure I was successful. That\u2019s how I found Growth Coach.<\/p>\n<p>My family and I live in the Twin Ports (Duluth, MN\/Superior, WI) and enjoy the natural beauty of the area. We believe in sharing with others the things that have enhanced our own lives and so we regularly engage in volunteer work.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1732040816239{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"templatera_shortcode\"><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_custom_1559622394017\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2 style=\"margin: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: center;\">Set your business up for success now!<\/h2>\n<h4 class=\"no-margin-top\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Contact The Growth Coach today at <a class=\"scheme2\" href=\"tel:318-564-0901\">(318) 564-0901<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"vc_empty_space\"   style=\"height: 30px\"><span class=\"vc_empty_space_inner\"><\/span><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"button lg\" href=\"\/greater-shreveport\/contact\">Send a Message<\/a><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Send a Message Phone: (318) 564-0901 froots@thegrowthcoach.com Famia Roots - Your Growth Coach I serve the Greater Shreveport area, bringing over 20 years of leadership, business, and technology experience to my coaching practice.
