Summary

In this episode, John discusses the concept of letting go and embracing change. He emphasizes the importance of not holding onto things that don't belong to us, such as parental expectations or grudges from the past. He highlights the significance of being present, engaging in life, taking action instead of "trusting the universe," and connecting with one's true self.


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.
