Biography

Kathy Koch, Ph.D. (pronounced "cook")

With a passion for being an influence and for helping build strong and healthy families, Dr. Kathy writes (6 books and counting) and speaks (a lot and often) on a wide range of topics that are both timeless and current. Her humorous and easy-to-learn-from speaking style, foundational wisdom, and practical and relevant details leave her audiences empowered with strategies to navigate the challenges of raising and teaching children. She warmly speaks to young people and their adults with compassion and understanding, never shying away from tough topics in our current culture. Her messages are always beautifully woven with Biblical truth and hope.

Kathy has become a wildly popular speaker offering keynote presentations for conventions and seminars for educators and students held at schools, and conferences; and programs for parents, schools, conventions, and youth and parent organizations.

With audiences ranging in age from 10 to 100, Kathy has a unique gift of engaging, entertaining, and teaching them all. She attributes much of her excellence to the three degrees she earned from Purdue University, including a Ph.D. in reading and educational psychology. She taught second graders, coached middle schoolers, was a tenured associate professor of education at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, and finally a school board member before becoming a full-time conference and keynote speaker in 1991.

Dr. Kathy founded Celebrate Kids, Inc., in 1991 and co-founded Ignite the Family in 2018. It is now the conference ministry of Celebrate Kids.

Eaglelike Excellence (For Students)

If you mistakenly strive for perfection, it can be easy to be dissatisfied, overwhelmed, stressed, and depressed. Perfection may be social media’s false expectation, but it’s not God’s! As Dr. Kathy shares about eagles, you’ll realize you need eaglelike courage, energy, strength, hope, and vision to find freedom and to achieve your goals.

Five to Thrive
Meet Your Needs – Once and For All! (For Students)

The culture is upside down in several ways. You may confuse your wants with your needs and try to find satisfaction in things that are fleeting and won’t result in flourishing. Dr. Kathy understands why this may be the case and how dangerous this can be. She’ll refresh and challenge you with truth and a practical problem-solving approach to negative influences in your life.

Created To Be (For Students)

As Dr. Kathy shares her story, you’ll be able to see yours more clearly. Why were you created? Who are you and who are you becoming? You will be inspired by Chatty Kathy’s too-tall, spelling-is-challenging, low-voice reality and how it’s God’s perfect design for her. Her humor is disarming and the truths are undeniable. You are who you are supposed to be!

How Am I Smart and Why Does it Matter? (For Students)

Everyone has eight intelligences that can be awakened, strengthened, and used when learning anything. Everyone is smart! Dr. Kathy will explain each intelligence so you can determine which ones are strengths and how to learn with them. The question to ask is “How am I smart?” not “Am I smart?” Dr. Kathy will also make applications to spiritual growth, friendship, behavior, and careers. You will be encouraged about your present situation and your future.
