Hi, my name is John Kim. I'm a therapist who went through his own rebirth many years ago,

and I've been documenting my journey ever since, sharing my life lessons and revelations.

I believe in casual or clinical with you instead of at you.

I come unrehearsed on purpose because self-help doesn't have to be so complicated.

So I was on my way to work out yesterday.

It was the end of the day.

I usually 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.

I didn't want to work out at all I just I felt like because I didn't today that I needed to it was

almost like you know taking my medicine and I had no desire to actually run I knew I was just

going to be going through the motions and so I was like you what, I'm going to label this under self-care.

And I went and got pizza. I went to one of my favorite pizza places. And I knew I was going to

spend like 50 bucks because you can't just buy a slice. You have to buy the whole pie. And then,

of course, you get a salad and all that. So I treated myself. and during that, I was listening to an episode of Dax Shepherd's podcast,

and he had Kate Hudson and her brother on,
