Hi, my name is John Kim and I'm a therapist who went through his own

rebirth I share my feelings and revelations I believe in casual or clinical and

with you instead of at you. I come unrehearsed on purpose

because self-help doesn't have to be so complicated. I'm super, super

excited about today's guest. I have her on for many reasons. One proof of

serendipity meaning the way that we meant was man it just it was kind of like finding a needle in a haystack it was just very

bent very um I'm not crying it's just early in the morning in my throat. I should be crying because it really is meaningful

We met via email and the chances of us meeting and her representing me and selling a book

was really slim to none and it happened so effortlessly and this isn't because I feel like I'm

talented or I don't even think it was because I feel like I'm lucky I just feel like it

was meant. It's one of those things where you look back and you're like oh it

happens so seamlessly it was just

meant to be so proof of serendipity and that our collisions sometimes flawless

seamless can change your life, right?

And then the other reason is she's just, I mean, talk about no BS.

She's like the most no BS agent, book agent I've ever met. She's New York. She has an amazing story and I just love how raw and transparent she is and the final reason is she's just

going to talk about what an agent looks for with writers and I know a lot of people who

followed me are also bloggers and I just think it would just be

Very valuable and and she's going to shed lots of light and wisdom with that whole book industry through her perspective

as an agent.

Meet my book agent, Laura York. So first, thank you for being on my podcast.

Thank you for asking me.
