Five to Thrive

How to Determine If Your Core Needs Are Being Met (and What to Do When They're Not)

By: Kathy Koch PhD

Narrated by: Lisa Lindsley

Answering five questions can change your life.

Who can I trust? Who am I? Who wants me? Why am I alive? What do I do well?

Every human has five core needs, and if you're going to thrive, these needs must be met in healthy ways - primarily through God.

Learn what they are and how you can develop beliefs and skills so they're met and you become whole, content, and at peace. Start thriving as you use the ideas in this revised and updated edition of Finding Authentic Hope and Wholeness.

With humor and vulnerability, Dr. Kathy Koch gives you the tools to develop an authentic sense of self and a positive outlook on the future. Take the time to ask yourself these five questions, and discover the answers as you journey with Dr. Kathy toward hope and wholeness. You'll be glad you did - for the rest of your life!

An answered prayer

Grateful for Kathy and her book. I am in recovery and have been for 9 years. Her book answered questions that dealt with me myself and I. It’s been time for me to forgive myself and move on. Now I can. Thank you Kathy 🙏🏽🙌🏼🙋🏻‍♀️

Didn’t find this book practical

I really wanted to like this book. I kept listening hoping I would eventually get something out of it. I like the message, which to me sounded like “our true identity is in Jesus and trying to find satisfaction and/or meaning in anything else will only leave us feeling unsatisfied.” However, I never understood what the 5 core needs were and how to determine which ones we’re motivated by and how to replace that with a Biblical perspective. It just isn’t what I was expecting.
