0:00.0 | Hi, my name is John Kim. I'm a therapist who went through his own rebirth many years ago |
0:05.6 | and I've been documenting my journey ever since sharing my life lessons and revelations. |
0:10.4 | I believe in casual or clinical with you instead of at you. I come unrehearsed on purpose |
