Thrive in 5's Core Curriculum
Each course in the core curriculum consists of 5 lessons per course and an interactive workbook to guide you through the lessons.

Perfectionism
Identify perfectionism in your life, where it came from, and how you can manage it.
In this course, I'm sharing the information I learned as I started to understand and shift my own perfectionism.On the outside, many people think that I “have it all.” I wish they knew that it rarely feels like enough. No matter what I do, no matter what I achieve, my eye has a tendency to go to what could have been better or faster. I also get ahead of myself, formulating the next set of goals without acknowledging or savoring the relative success that I achieved.
I did a lot of introspection and came to the realization that something needs to change. That's when I started researching perfectionism and all its facets. I was able to identify what perfectionism looks like in my life, how it developed and why, the factors that maintain it, and some strategies for managing it. In this course, I'll show you how you can too.
This course consists of the following modules:
- Reflect on your own story of perfectionism
- Recognize how perfectionism shows up in your life
- Identify where your perfectionism came from and how it has affected you over time
- Identify how to maintain the adaptive elements of perfectionism and move away from the maladaptive ones
- Learn some practical, evidence-based tools and techniques to manage your perfectionism

Managing your Anxiety
Regain control of your life by learning to manage your anxiety.
We all get anxious sometimes. The difference between feeling anxious and struggling with anxiety is that people with anxiety disorders have intensive, excessive, and persistent worry about everyday life events. These fears, in turn, make it difficult for them to fulfill their personal, social, and academic or occupational commitments.
The good news is that we can break the cycles that fuel our anxiety. The key is making shifts to the way we think and the way we behave. This will be our focus throughout this course.
This course consists of the following modules:
- Learn how to manage worries and unhelpful thoughts
- Incorporate mindfulness as a way to ground yourself and let go of your worries
- Make long-lasting changes to your lifestyle
- Shift your behavior instead of give into it
- Learn how to embrace uncertainty rather than feel overwhelmed by it

Connecting as a Couple
Deepen your relationship with your partner and feel connected once again
In this course, we will focus on feeling more connected to your partner. Many people feel lonely, disconnected, and yearn for the way your relationship once was. In fact, they are scared that their relationship might never go back to the way it was. I am here to tell you that you can find that spark again, if you are motivated, committed, and put consistent effort into improving your relationship.
This course consists of the following modules:
- Learn how communicate with your partner
- Focus on incorporating more fun and play into your relationship
- Explore how physical touch and emotional connection go hand-in-hand
- Learn how to build more goodwill into your relationship
- Learn how to share, plan, and move together towards what you want and need as both individuals and partners

Avoiding & Managing Burnout
Avoid burnout and take care of yourself physically, psychologically, socially, spiritually, and professionally
Burnout has been a problem for a long time, but it took on a different meaning in 2020. We are feeling more depleted than ever before. The vast majority of people I speak to are both physically and emotionally exhausted. Honestly, I can relate. That’s not all though - so many of us are working in difficult conditions, performing duties, and fulfilling roles that do not bring us any meaning, joy, or sense of purpose, even if they once did. On top of that, we are disconnected from our loved ones. Put simply, we are BEYOND burnt out.
The good news is that there are concrete steps that we can take to both avoid burnout and mitigate it if it strikes. This is what we will be doing throughout this course.
This course consists of the following modules:
- Learn how to recognize burnout in your life
- Focus on setting realistic expectations for yourself
- Explore practical strategies that leads to a healthier work environment
- Learn how to feel more connected and recharged by our social relationships
- Shift your mindset to embrace uncertainty instead of being uncomfortable with it
As a member, you will also receive our signature Thrive in 5 mini-courses built for major impact for just 5 minutes of your time.
Below is a sneak peek at some of the topics we cover.

Improving Memory and Learning
There are certain things that we can do to remember the information that we are trying to learn.
In this mini-course we will go through evidence-based strategies for improving memory and learning such as:
- Writing > Typing
- Active Recall > Re-reading
- Deep Processing > Shallow Processing
- Mono-Tasking > Multi-Tasking
- Distributed Practice > Cramming

Tackling Procrastination
Procrastination is a cycle. It starts with the beliefs we have about the task, our ability to do the task, and what we need to get the task done. These thoughts make us feel anxious, frustrated, and stressed. As a result, we tend to procrastinate, avoiding the task at hand.
Through this mini-course we will dive deep into some of the behavioral shifts that we can make to tackle procrastination.

Being a Body Confident Role Model
Body confidence is about appreciating, accepting, and feeling good about the way your body looks and feels. We want our children to be body confident because it is good for their social, physical, and academic development.
In this mini-course we will go through some tips for being a body confident role model to the children and teens in your life.

Forms of Self-Care
Self-care is about noticing and tending to our own needs. It is important because it gives us fuel, prevents burnout, and helps us live a life that is joyous and meaningful. In this video, try to identify a few self-care ideas that you would like to implement in your life.
Joining Thrive in 5 is more than just joining a membership. It's an opportunity to improve your wellness and live a full life.
