While the Thrive in our name speaks for itself, the number 33 holds special meaning as well. In many cultures across the world, 3 is seen as a mystical number – Pythagoreans felt that the entire world and all things in it are summed up in this number, believing the triad had an ethical dimension of prudence, drive and good fortune. In Christianity there is the Holy Trinity (the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost), and in Judaism the Kabbalah refers to the three parts of the soul (breath, spirit, and repose). In Islam, during Salah many prayers are repeated three times, in Buddhism there are the Three Jewels (Buddah, Dharma, and Sangha), and in Hinduism there is the Triple Deity of Supreme Divinity (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva). Given this, we also felt it was significant that our team met at the University of Southern California in the M.B.A. program in what was numbered internally as the L.A. 33 class. We honor all these things and more as we provide insight and information to help people thrive.
