Chuck Bowen grew up in Claxton, Georgia ('Fruit Cake Capital of the World' where Chuck fit in perfectly), learned his ethics from his role-model, self-employed father and graduated from Georgia Tech (where he learned just how smart fruitcakes have to be to escape engineering school).

For over twenty-five years, Chuck has been guiding people and organizations, including leadership roles with Procter & Gamble (you know, the Tide people), Covad Communications, Key Risk Management and others. His work experiences include stints in the manufacturing, technology (yep, he’s a gadget guy), and insurance sectors at all levels of leadership. Chuck's life experiences range from entry levelemployee to CEO (it’s not all it’s cracked up to be), husband (he WAY out-punted his coverage), dad (THE best job in the world), motivator and mentor. Chuck comes alongside budding entrepreneurs, coaches and existing small business owners (they all just need a little fertilizer and water) to help them live out their dreams to own and operate profitable, authentic, and self-sustaining businesses.  His niche is getting results where others don't -- or can't (check out my testimonials from those I've helped).

Chuck Bowen is founder and president of Chuck Bowen Coaching, LLC.  After over 17 years of corporate experience (he finally escaped!; can you say 7 high-tech companies in the final 6 years?), Chuck decided to follow his passion to mentor others and focus full-time on providing financial (he became what Dave Ramsey himself calls 'one of his top certified financial coaches'), life, career, and entrepreneur coaching to individuals, families, ministries and small businesses. Throughout his personal and professional life, he has experienced first-hand and overcome many of the challenges (financial crisis, layoffs, starting businesses in down economies, business turnaround, etc.) he now helps others navigate on a daily basis. Thinking back on their financial nightmare of ‘92 (they owed over $65,000 in unsecured debt, on a $60,000 income), Chuck and Lori never dreamed that by following their simple principle of 'Living on Less Than You Make' that on Aug 1, 2005 they would make their final mortgage payment … and become totally debt free (can you say "happy campers"?!). Chuck’s passion is to now help others realize that same dream personally and with their businesses.

Through his weekly live call-in radio show (2004-2009) "The Chuck Bowen Show", podcast, personal coaching, workshops and live events, Chuck is helping thousands of people, entrepreneurs and churches significantly pay off tens of thousands in debt, jumpstart their careers, grow their businesses ... and dramatically change their lives permanently for the better. Chuck is a Dave Ramsey certified financial coach (for years, Dave flew him to Nashville to personally coach hundreds of his certified counselors), and Dean / Head Business Coach of the FreeAgentAcademy.com, compassionately helping his clients create and achieve their vision to thrive. He is an ordained deacon, teacher, and volunteer and serves on numerous advisory boards / committees. An avid cyclist, you can regularly find (and join!) him on backroads across much of the U.S. enjoying life at 20 mph.

Chuck enjoys an abundant life with his wife, Lori (who’s actually smarter than Chuck, as she was named Star Student, voted Most Likely to Succeed and has a major in Math and minor in Economics), and daughter, Haley (Haleybug -- or simply 'The Bug' -- is an aspiring Olympic swimmer, or so her dad dreams …), in San Antonio, Texas (where they live 1,200 miles away from Claxton in a place where it never rains and if you go outside you’ll likely burst into flames).
