We had the good fortune of connecting with Devante Douglas and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Devante, what inspires you?
My inspiration comes from wanting to see how full I can live my life and leaving a legacy.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Better U Development is Christ-led personal development business and program. Where we help unfocused people who struggle with focusing on their goals become the ultimate achiever they desire to be. We emphasize on helping our clients talk and think through the challenges and obstacles of life. To a place of focus, peace, and progress. The thing I’m proud of thus far is the impact we’ve had on people’s lives. We don’t take it for granted when people allow us into their life to help them become better. I got to my life coaching business after failing in two other business started a clothing brand and I gave life insurance a try. Neither of those businesses did well enough for me to stick with them. So of course I grew frustrated with the lack of results , but I knew I was meant for business. Through that experience I learned the importance of pivoting and finding your purpose. Your gift will make room for you nothing more nothing less you don’t have to what others are doing to experience some level of success. When someone hears about Better U Development I want them to immediately know that we care, and share their desire to be better in whatever way they want to be. We truly believe that most people want to achieve great things. They just may need a little help with shifting their mindset on what its going to take to actually do so. That’s where Better U Development comes in!

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I’m a real chill guy, but I love working out so we’re definitely going to the gym D-180 to be exact. We would also go to the family fun center. This place has bowling, skating, mini golf, laser tag, and go karts. Now we have to eat good right? It’s place in the area called Picasso an up scale pizza place they other good items as well. My other favorite food place I would take them would be blacksmith.
