Hey guys, my name is John Kim. I'm a licensed therapist and life coach putting

self betterment into a shot class because let's face it who's got that much time

these days. I come unpolished, unrehearsed, on purpose.

If you're looking for more of a wine glass, you've come to the wrong place. Two people from the internet, Ow and Jana approached me and asked me if they could use my first book in doing a virtual book club and I was like

fuck yeah let's do it so it's happening if you've been listening to me or reading me, you know I talk a lot about containers.

If this is the first time you're listening to me, you're probably like, what the hell is he talking about?

Does this guy make trash cans?

Is he a therapist?

By containers I mean life space.

And I came up with that concept

as I was going through my own rebirth,

post-divorce, rebuilding a brand new life

and building a new life space for myself.

So it's not just Psychobable, it's shit that I went through and learned. And also I also learned about it through the TC model.

It's called Therapeutic Community and it's a model for recovery in addiction and it dates back to the 1800s this idea of rebuilding

ourselves through others and then also the importance of having a safe space.

So it's basically you know if your container or life space is safe, then growth is organic

because we are evolving, growing creatures.

I turn these concepts into a book and we are all going to read this book together in

this book club but more importantly do the exercises share our stories and so what

I love about this idea is it's the first time that I'm doing a virtual book club which is exciting.

I love playing around with different tools, right? Connecting people and here's this thing here's the thing
