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
0:16.2	because self-health doesn't have to be so complicated.
0:20.0	So I was on my way to work out yesterday. It was the end of the day. I usually
0:27.3	work out during the afternoon. I cut my day in half. I like getting that extra dopamine and reboot in the middle of the day but yesterday I got
0:37.1	caught up in writing and so it was like 6 p.m. and I felt like I need to get to get out and

1:36.2	because you can't just buy a slice, you have to buy the whole pie and then of course you
1:40.7	get a salad and all that. So I treated myself and during that I was
1:45.6	listening to an episode of Dax Shepard's podcast and he had he had Kate Hudson and her brother on and they were talking about you know the
1:58.7	entertainment industry and their story and I had this huge revelation and this is this is what I'm getting to that I wanted to share
2:05.0	I had this huge revelation that I spend most of my life or spent most of my life trying to fit in.
