Summary
In today's episode, John goes through the exercises on Day 2 of his new workbook: 31 Days of Single On Purpose. He talks about how there's more to life than love and relationships, encourages you to have a life outside of dating, love, and your relationships, and gives you a homework assignment: what's one thing you can do today to prove that life is more than love and your relationships?
Roughly ten minutes of self help in a shot glass. If you're looking for a wine glass, you've come to the wrong place. Marriage family therapist and best-selling author, John Kim, shares his life and love revelations as well as insights from his sessions. He pulls the curtain back and documents his journey as a therapist but more importantly, as a human being.
