Gosh, it was six or seven years ago now when I was aired the first time. And it was a very elaborate over the top wedding in Morocco.

I'm talking camels. I'm talking pitching it to Vogue to cover.

You had camels at your wedding? Holy shit. Okay.

And, you know, I can say that now, like, wow, I was really trying to prove to everyone

and myself included, mostly myself, that our love was like really real.

But I basically put on this whole festival spectacle performance because I was walking down the aisle thinking,

I don't know how long this is going to last. And I'm afraid he's not my person. How long were you

guys together before the bells? We'd been together for nine years. Oh, wow. Okay. That's a long time.

So we were, he proposed six months in.

So we were engaged for seven years, which is a red flag in and of itself.

And finally, I decided like, I'm going to make this relationship work.

We're going to figure it out.

And the way we're going to do that is, of course, we're going to throw this crazy wedding.

I'm John Kim, a licensed therapist who used to be a miserable fuck before going on a

hero's journey and turning expired relationships into revelations.

I use my story to help others come with you instead of at you, unrehearsed on purpose, because self-help

doesn't have to be polished or complicated, just honest.
