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. |
0:10.3 | I believe in casual or clinical with you instead of at you. I come unrehearsed on purpose |
0:16.2 | because self-health doesn't have to be so complicated. |
0:19.1 | How to grow your relationship? Okay, I'm going to give you eight things to do. And when I say do, I mean action. You don't just grow your relationship by thinking you have to put the action behind the words. |
