Hi, my name is John Kim. I'm a therapist who went through his own

rebirth many years ago and I've been documenting my journey ever since sharing my life

lessons and revelations. I believe in casual or clinical with you instead of at you. I come unrehearsed on purpose

because self-help doesn't have to be so complicated. So I'm in my car on my way to the dentist today. Finally, after almost a year, I'm going to get a new tooth.

Yes, I've been chewing on one side of my mouth for almost a year.

So about a year ago, I went in for a teeth cleaning and they found something on the x-ray. I don't know what it was,

like a, it was more than a cavity obviously, but it was like underneath and the prescription was for me to extract my tooth and at first I was like what the

fuck I have to take my tooth out I just it just made me feel old you know and

if I didn't then because there was no pain right it was something that they discovered that they saw but I didn't feel anything

I just went in for cleaning so it was it was a prevention thing, right?

And I just went with it because my dentist,

they are friends of mine, me and Vanessa,

and the great at what they do, they are also very far so they're about an hour and a half

from my house. So I don't see them for cleanings because they would just take too

much of my time but I do see them for bigger things like this. I trusted them and I said

okay well let's do it and we got it done I didn't know how long the process was I should have asked it's my fault

I didn't know it was going to be almost a year I thought it would be really quick

But you know you have to get the crown thing they have to send it out to the lab that's a whole process and then every

time I come it's an hour and a half and so with scheduling it's just a it's a big

it's a big chore you know it takes half the day and so I so I pushed back appointments and all that and then so

last time I went I was getting my tooth a brand new tooth and it didn't fit and it wasn't their fault it was the

lab's fault so that drive was a wash you know two and a half three hours and
