Why Aren?t You Thriving? : A Man?s Guide to Asking Tough Questions and Getting Better in 7 Core Areas

A “choose your own adventure” for personal growth! 

When most men are asked about their lives—peeling back the layers of church, sports, work, and hobbies to what matters to their core—they’ll likely admit that something’s missing. 

Sam Feeney reached a “good enough” level of living, with a great family, nice house, and good job, only to find that he was seeking something more. He shares his journey to find personal satisfaction and growth within Why Aren’t You Thriving?

Sam Feeney has identified 7 Core Areas where men have the opportunity to live more fully: Faith, Identity, Mission, Career, Health, Relationships, and Finances. His podcast, Made to Thrive, interviews men who are excelling in at least one of those areas, asking them 5 Big Questions: 

• Why aren’t more men thriving? What’s holding them back? 
• When weren’t you thriving? What changed? What keeps you thriving? 
• What does it look like to thrive? 
• What tools, resources, strategies do you recommend? 
• What encouragement do you have for men who want to thrive?

These interviews helped Sam realize the three main reasons men are not only dissatisfied with life, but missing out on the influence they could be having on the world around them. He invites men to join him in discovering how to thrive in all 7 Core Areas, by identifying which are holding them back, why, and how they can begin a virtuous cycle of improvement and impact.

“At a time when being pro-guy is pretty uncommon or even unpopular, this book not only assumes that men should be thriving as God created, but gives us a roadmap to do just that. I challenge you to ask yourself this tough question and use the tools in this book to build the exciting life God destined you to live!”-David Benham, best-selling author and nationally-acclaimed entrepreneur
