Catch Fire Founders: Melanie & Doug Nelson

Doug Nelson, Author, Trainer, Entrepreneur, is also the Founder of the Catch Fire University.

Doug has a unique story. Growing up in rural Wisconsin and Minnesota without running water and wearing his sister's hand-me-downs was a catalyst to Doug's success. Losing his father suddenly at the age of 11 was another major moment that altered his life drastically. A rebel with a cause made life very interesting for Doug until he had his son, Avery. Settling down, Doug got to work creating the life he knew he was always meant to live. Several years and successful businesses later, he retired at the age of 34 and began enjoying a laid back life. This is when he had another turning point - he was in a natural gas explosion. Six weeks in a coma and then a year of rehab changed Doug's outlook on life and helped to shape his current mission and purpose.

Doug has been training wealth building principals all over internationally since 2001. Over the years Doug saw that people needed more than simply to attend a seminar on creating Financial Freedom and wealth - they needed to understand and be TAUGHT...like we were in school growing up, and later college or university. From this came his book, Catch Fire, which then spawned Catch Fire University.

Doug believes that we ALL have gifts but if we don't use them, we will loose them. He realized he had a gift for business when, during the nine months it took to fully recover from the accident, he never ONCE worried about money. In fact, while he was in a coma following the explosion, his weekly income actually INCREASED! Once he realized that he was in a VERY unique position, being the ONLY one in the burn unit with only ONE worry instead of two, he decided right then to share with as many people as possible his expertise and gifts.

Doug's book, coupled with Catch Fire University, provides REAL LIFE solutions to escaping the financial prison so many have fallen into. If you are looking to secure your Financial Future and don't know where to start; or if you want to increase what you have already managed to create, enroll and join our student body and, more importantly, graduate with freedom.

Doug has the gift of being able to speak in a powerful, impactful manner in front of large groups of people- He is a world class trainer and speaker! He possesses an abundance of knowledge about business, sales, and marketing. He combines his two gifts here in the Catch Fire University.
