0:00.0 | Hey guys, my name is John Kim. I'm a licensed therapist and life coach putting |
0:07.2 | self betterment into a shot class because let's face it who's got that much time |
0:11.4 | these days. |
0:12.8 | I come unpolished, unrehearsed, on purpose. |
0:16.3 | If you're looking for more of a wine glass, |
0:18.4 | you've come to the wrong place. |
0:22.1 | The commercialization of self-betterment has turned self-help into Taco Bell. |
0:27.0 | Yes, I agree and I get it. |
0:29.2 | All the same shit just in different forms. |
