About Barry

Barry Bouthilette, the founder of GreatStrategies.net, lives in the beautiful village of Florence, Massachusetts (about 100 miles west of Boston) in the gorgeous Connecticut River valley.

His friends call him “Boots” or “the Energy Guy.” Life has blessed him with an abundance of enduring energy, thus the nickname.

He is married to Nonie who is also one of the most dynamic people you’d ever want to meet. Together they have four children (Nick, Kate, Matt and Annie) who have taught them many wonderful life lessons.

The great outdoors is where Barry loves to be. Give him a choice between working around the house, or playing outside (no matter the season), and he’ll almost always choose play. Cross country skiing (he just loves to be in the woods), bicycling and hiking are three of his favorite activities.

His mission in life is to inspire people to be fully engaged in a life that really matters. He maintains an active coaching practice and conducts teleseminars as a way of helping people to be fully energized in the pursuit of their goals.
