How to Build Healthy Love After Emotional Wounds

Mon, 11 May 2026 07:00:00 -0000

Some relationship patterns aren’t about the present. They’re about wounds your nervous system learned a long time ago.

In this episode, John Kim breaks down some of the most common emotional wounds people carry into relationships, including abandonment, rejection, betrayal, control, emotional deprivation, and loss of self. He explains how these wounds become patterns, why we react instead of respond, and what healing actually looks like in real time.

Key points covered:

• Why wounds are about meaning, not just events

• How childhood experiences shape adult relationship patterns

• The difference between reacting from protection vs truth

• Why people repeat the same emotional cycles in relationships

• How abandonment and rejection wounds show up in everyday moments

• What it means to create a corrective love experience

John also shares personal reflections about rebuilding life after losing his home in the Altadena fires and moving into a new home in Costa Rica.

He mentions his upcoming book, Love Hard on Purpose, and a private WhatsApp group for readers who pre-order the book.

Therapy Thursdays: How to know when to stay, repair, or let go

Thu, 07 May 2026 10:30:00 -0000

In this Therapy Thursdays episode, we’re answering your questions about dating, attraction, conflict, infidelity, and the messy middle of deciding whether a relationship is worth repairing.

We explore what to look for when you’re dating, how much of your past to share with a partner, and whether physical attraction can grow over time. We also get into the harder questions: why a spouse might become distant after an affair, how to rebuild trust, when to go to couples counseling, and how to know whether conflict is healthy or a sign that something deeper is wrong.

This episode also touches on emotional healing after heartbreak, finding yourself again, staying positive through difficult seasons, and why an ex might still be watching your life from a distance.

Whether you’re dating, rebuilding, questioning, or letting go, this conversation is about learning to listen to yourself, understand the patterns at play, and make choices from clarity instead of fear.

Stop Restoring Your Relationship and Start Updating It

Mon, 04 May 2026 07:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John explores why trying to bring a relationship back to what itonce was can quietly hold it back. Instead of restoring the past, he reframes love as something that must evolve alongside the people in it, requiring honesty, eﬀort, and a willingness to grow together.

He breaks down how relationships naturally fall out of alignment over time and why that doesn’t mean they’re broken. Through communication, truth-telling, and emotional capacity, alignment becomes something you build rather than something you either “have” or don’t.

John shares three grounded ways to realign when things feel oﬀ, including telling the current truth, updating the relationship instead of restoring it, and focusing on willingness over perfection. The episode also touches on the idea that some relationships need to “die” in order to be rebuilt in a way that actually fits who both people are today.

When Love Feels Like an Addiction

Wed, 29 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0000

In this vulnerable solo episode, John Kim explores love and sex addiction through the lens of attachment, emotional regulation, childhood wounds, and relationship ruptures. After a painful conflict with his partner, John reflects on how love can become a way to regulate anxiety, emptiness, and the need to feel wanted or chosen. He unpacks the difference between real love and chasing intensity, and why healing means learning to sit with your own internal state without immediately reaching for someone else to fix it.

Turning 53 Made Me Rethink Truth, Love, and What Really Matters

Wed, 22 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0000

Turning 53 has John reflecting on what actually matters.

In this birthday episode, he shares five revelations shaped by loss, growth, love, and starting over. From losing his house to finding more meaning, joy, and freedom, this is a deeply personal conversation about accepting the truth, living in alignment, and letting life change you. He talks about why growth often feels like loss before it feels like expansion, why love is something we build and practice, and why starting over is not failure but a skill.

This episode feels like a check-in with yourself. A reminder that what was true for you before may not be true now. That chasing highs will never give you the kind of life alignment can. That love is less about finding the perfect feeling and more about consistency, repair, and honesty. And that no matter your age, you can begin again.

If you’ve been reevaluating your life, grieving an old version of yourself, or wondering whether it’s too late to change course, this episode will meet you there.

In this episode:

Truth changes your life when you fully accept it
Why alignment matters more than chasing highs
Growth often feels like loss before it feels like expansion
Love is built through consistency, honesty, and repair
You can start over more times than you think

Dating Smarter, Not Harder with Amy Chan

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John Kim sits down with relationship expert and author Amy Chan to talk about dating patterns, childhood wounds, grief, commitment, and what it really takes to build healthy love.

Amy shares how the sudden loss of a close friend changed the way she thinks about relationships and why creating core memories with the people you love matters more than convenience. John opens up about how losing his home reshaped his idea of freedom, home, and what truly matters. Together, they explore how childhood neglect, validation-seeking, and old survival strategies continue to shape adult dating patterns.

They also break down Amy’s framework for dating smarter, including how to spot where your dating life gets stuck, why apps should not be your only strategy, and how your energy affects connection. They talk about dopamine, fantasy, and why the first three months of dating can be misleading.

Later, they unpack commitment, unrealistic expectations, relationship trade-offs, triggers, repair, and emotional safety. Amy explains her “Sh*t Bucket” concept and why healthy love is not about finding a perfect partner, but choosing someone whose imperfections you can actually live with.

They close with a hopeful reminder: love is hard, but it is still worth building.

Is your relationship medicine or addiction?

Wed, 15 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0000

Love can feel intoxicating. The chemistry, the obsession, the constant thinking about someone, the emotional highs and lows. But just because love feels intense does not mean it is healthy.

In this episode, John Kim explores one of the most important relationship questions you can ask yourself: Is your love acting like a drug, or is it becoming medicine?

He breaks down how love can become something you use to regulate your worth, soothe your anxiety, or escape yourself. He also explains how healthy love, while not always comfortable, can become a powerful place for self-awareness, healing, and growth.

John unpacks the difference between addictive love and healing love, why intensity is not always intimacy, and how attachment wounds can disguise themselves as chemistry. He also shares what needs to happen for love to shift from something that destabilizes you to something that helps you become more grounded, honest, and self-connected.

If you have ever confused passion with pain, chased reassurance, or lost yourself trying to hold onto a relationship, this episode will help you look at love more clearly.

A self-check for your relationship

Your internal state

Do I feel anxious more than I feel grounded in this connection or relationship? Do I need reassurance often to feel okay? Do I feel a high when they lean in and a crash when they pull back? Do I think about them more than I feel connected to myself?

Your behavior
Do I change how I show up based on how they are acting?
Do I overgive, overtext, or overexplain when I feel distance?
Do I ignore things that do not feel right to keep the connection?
Do I try to manage how they see me instead of just being myself?

Your relationship to discomfort
When I feel triggered, do I reach for them instead of sitting with myself?
Do I avoid conflict to keep things good?
Do I stay longer than I should because of potential?
Do I confuse intimacy with intensity?

Your clarity
Do I know where I stand, or am I often guessing?
Am I in love with who they are or who I hope they will become?
Am I choosing them, or am I trying to be chosen?

Your identity
Do I feel more like myself in this relationship or less?
Am I proud of how I show up here?
If this ended today, would I feel broken or grounded in myself?

Final question
In this relationship, am I trying to feel better, or am I trying to become better?

Presence, Healing, and a Slower Life with Brooks Wilson

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0000

What happens when a city-built life gets interrupted, and something quieter begins to call you in?

In this episode, John Kim sits down with Brooks Wilson for a conversation about nature, nervous system regulation, mindfulness, healing, and what it means to move through life with more intention. Brooks shares what it was like growing up in Tamarindo, Costa Rica before major development, how nature shaped her from an early age, and how surfing, yoga, sound healing, and ceremony became part of her path.

Together, John and Brooks explore the contrast between fast-paced city living and a slower, more grounded way of being. They talk about presence, eye contact, human connection, gratitude, manifestation, and the healing power of sound, nature, and community. John also opens up about how his move to Costa Rica has been reshaping him after major life upheaval, and why this season feels less like escape and more like medicine.

This is a conversation about returning to what matters, learning to listen differently, and finding alignment in unexpected places.

Brooks Wilson is a Costa Rica–based yoga teacher, sound healer, and ceremonial guide. You can learn more about her work here:

How Past Wounds Distort Your Definition of Love

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0000

How do childhood wounds, past relationships, and old emotional patterns shape your definition of love?

In this episode, John Kim explores how relationship residue turns into distorted definitions of love. He breaks down how early experiences, family dynamics, unhealthy conflict, self-sacrifice, and internalized pain can create a damaging love blueprint that follows us into adulthood.

John unpacks the unhealthy ways many people define love, including love as self-sacrifice, possession, completion, and dependency. He explains how these distorted beliefs can lead to codependency, control, unrealistic expectations, self-abandonment, and unhealthy relationship patterns.

He also shares how heartbreak, expired relationships, and self-awareness can become a corrective love experience that helps you redefine love in a healthier way. Instead of losing yourself in romance, healthy love is built through interdependence, communication, compassion, conflict repair, individuality, and emotional growth.

If you’ve ever struggled with attachment wounds, toxic relationship patterns, fear of abandonment, or confusion about what real love looks like, this episode will help you question the definitions you inherited and create a healthier, more grounded version of love.

Erotica, Aliveness, and the Truth About Desire

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John sits down for a layered conversation on erotica, desire, safety, and what it really means to feel alive in your life and relationships.

They explore the idea that erotica is not just about sex, but about presence, sensuality, connection, and being fully turned on by your own life instead of moving through it on autopilot. The conversation also unpacks why sex and closeness can feel so different for different people, how safety shapes intimacy, and why desire often changes in long-term relationships.

John, Madeleine and Vanessa also talk about self-abandonment, the pressure we put on romantic relationships, the tension between love and freedom, and the importance of living not just from the mind, but from the body and soul too.

This episode is about intimacy, embodiment, emotional truth, and learning how to stay connected to yourself while building deeper connection with someone else.

What Would Make You Feel More Complete?

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 07:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John reflects on what it means to feel complete and asks a powerful question: what in your life feels unfinished? He explores how so many of us chase worth, peace, and wholeness through achievement, validation, or external circumstances, while the real work may be learning how to feel whole from within.

This is a conversation about unfinished parts of ourselves, living with more intention, and finding completeness even when life is uncertain or unresolved.

If you have been feeling restless, behind, or like something is missing, this episode will give you space to reflect on what truly brings you back to yourself.

Muscle, Masculinity, and the Search for Self-Worth with Andy Thompson

Mon, 23 Mar 2026 07:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John explores the link between masculinity, exercise, and self-worth, and how many men learn to chase confidence through strength, discipline, and physical ability. An unexpected car incident during the golf cart ride sparks a conversation about masculine fear, community, and the importance of men checking and supporting each other in healthy ways. He reflects on heartbreak, competition, and the gym as a path to identity, while also asking the deeper question of whether a man’s worth can ever really come from muscle alone.

If you have ever felt insecure, questioned your worth, or wondered why you want to build your body in the first place, this episode is for you.

Don’t Fix the Relationship. Rebuild It

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 07:00:00 -0000

John breaks down why “2x love” keeps people stuck in the same patterns, while “10x love” asks for a total redesign. He talks about self-respect, raising your standards, releasing old blueprints, and building a relationship that feels aligned instead of familiar.

If you’ve been trying to fix love without really changing it, this episode is for you.

Acupuncture, Healing & Body Wisdom with Kiran K Aulakh

Mon, 16 Mar 2026 07:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John sits down with Kiran K Aulakh, acupuncturist and craniosacral practitioner, for a conversation about healing, sensitivity, and what it means to reconnect with the body.

Kiran shares how jaw pain, anxiety, and restricted self-expression first led her inward, and how that journey eventually became a calling toward acupuncture and the healing arts. Together, she and John explore what acupuncture actually does, how Eastern and Western frameworks can both help explain it, and why the body often knows long before the mind catches up.

This conversation moves beyond needles and technique into something deeper: intuition, receptivity, nervous system regulation, and the practice of letting the body guide your life.

If you have ever felt disconnected from yourself, unsure how to trust your body, or curious about acupuncture as more than just pain relief, this episode is for you.

Thu, 12 Mar 2026 07:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John answers listener questions about attachment wounds, commitment issues, trauma bonds, intrusive thoughts, divorce, and the painful question so many people wrestle with: is this relationship worth fighting for, or is it time to let go?

He explores what actually kills relationships, why healthy love can sometimes feel unfamiliar, how to begin healing avoidant patterns, and what it means to choose yourself when your whole life is about to change. This is an honest conversation about love, fear, grief, boundaries, and the courage it takes to face hard truths.

The Hidden Dynamics of Love and Healing

Wed, 11 Mar 2026 07:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John unpacks relationship truths no one really prepares you for. From missing who you were in a relationship, to being healing and still drawn to old patterns, this conversation explores what love, compatibility, and growth actually look like.

He also breaks down why real compatibility is about more than shared interests, how nervous systems shape relationships, and why steady love may be healthier than the kind that feels electric.

A grounded episode on heartbreak, healing, patterns, and choosing differently.

ADHD, Fight-or-Flight, and the Productivity Trap with Jenna Free

Mon, 09 Mar 2026 07:00:00 -0000

What if ADHD isn’t just about focus… but about a nervous system stuck in survival mode?

Therapist Jenna Free explains why many ADHD brains are living in chronic fight-or-flight—and why productivity tools like planners and to-do lists often fail.

In this episode, Jenna shares how her own late ADHD diagnosis in graduate school led her to rethink everything she was taught about ADHD treatment. Instead of adding more systems and strategies, she began focusing on nervous system regulation.

When the body is dysregulated, executive functioning drops, urgency increases, and people get stuck in a familiar ADHD pattern: on → crash → repeat.

Jenna introduces the concept of “alignment with reality” — learning to match your internal state to what’s actually happening instead of fighting reality with thoughts like “I’m behind” or “there’s not enough time.”

We also explore ADHD in women and motherhood, the cultural pressure to constantly produce, and how productivity for productivity’s sake can disconnect us from joy, presence, and the people we care about most.

Jenna shares practical ways to regulate in everyday life, including recognizing signs of dysregulation, slowing the body to signal safety, and identifying the beliefs that keep us stuck in urgency.

If you constantly feel rushed, overwhelmed, or trapped by your to-do list, this episode will change how you think about ADHD, productivity, and regulation.

How I’ve Made Women Feel Unsafe

Wed, 04 Mar 2026 08:00:00 -0000

In this episode, I walk through my past relationships and take ownership of the ways I’ve been unsafe.

I share specific moments - steamrolling my ex-wife with logic instead of empathy, making subtle body comments that landed harder than I understood, ending relationships abruptly, and moving on too quickly after a breakup. At the time, I justified a lot of it. Looking back, I see the impact.

I also talk about asking my current partner to tell me how I’ve made her feel unsafe over the past eight years. I held her, promised not to defend myself, and listened.

And I cried.

This isn’t about shame. It’s about ownership.

If you’re a man listening, the question isn’t “Am I a good guy?”It’s: Where have I been unsafe — and what would it mean to do better?

Fight Without Fighting: How to Build Real Intimacy

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 08:00:00 -0000

Most of us were never taught how to communicate in relationships.

So we react.

We defend.

We assume.

We build resentment.

In this solo episode, John reframes “communication” as something deeper: intimacy, attunement, and repair.

Because it’s not the conflict that destroys relationships — it’s the lack of repair.

John breaks down how to “fight without fighting,” including:

• Trying to understand before trying to be understood

• Naming your activation instead of attacking

• Taking ownership to create repair

• Setting intentional time to practice connection

• Using I statements and watching tone

• Using touch and body language to soften conflict

• Listening while considering your partner’s story

Healthy intimacy isn’t chemistry. It’s skill.

And every conflict is a chance to break a pattern — or repeat one.

Therapy Thursdays | Is It Over… Or Worth Saving?

Thu, 26 Feb 2026 08:00:00 -0000

In this episode, I answer your questions about breakups, expired relationships, and finding the courage to choose yourself.

We talk about how to let go when you’re struggling to accept it’s over, how to know if a relationship is worth saving, and what it really takes to leave. I also break down the real stages of a relationship, advice for your first one, and how to slow yourself down while dating.

This one is about self-trust, endings, and learning to stop clinging to what’s already expired.

Let’s get into it.

Turn Your Breakup Into a Breakthrough

Wed, 25 Feb 2026 08:00:00 -0000

A breakup can feel like the end of everything. But what if it’s actually the beginning?

In this episode, John shares a deeply personal reflection on fear, identity, divorce, and what relationships are really meant to do in our lives. Inspired by a nostalgic moment listening to “Borderline” by Madonna, he explores how certain songs — and certain people — instantly transport us back to who we were.

John challenges the idea that you were supposed to be the hero in someone’s life. Maybe you were the bridge. And maybe they were a bridge for you.

He dives into:

• Why some relationships are meant to expire

• The truth about closure (and why it’s ongoing)

• How to stop outsourcing your worth to a partner

• The powerful question: Who am I without them?

• The difference between your pseudo self and solid self

• Why endings are not the opposite of beginnings

If you’re going through a breakup — or still carrying residue from one — this episode reframes the pain as instruction. Profound pain carries profound growth.

Breakups don’t just take something from you. They expose you to yourself.

Key Takeaway

Instead of asking why it ended, ask:

What was I outsourcing in this relationship that I now need to own?

That question alone can change everything.

Why You Feel Empty Even When You’re Doing Everything Right

Wed, 18 Feb 2026 08:00:00 -0000

What if the thing shaping almost every decision you make is happening quietly — without you realizing it?

John breaks down a powerful idea from psychologist and Nobel Prize winner Daniel Kahneman: there are two selves at play — the experiencing self (who lives life moment-to-moment) and the remembering self (who tells the story and makes most decisions).

When those two don’t agree, you can end up living a life that looks “right” on paper… but still feels empty inside.

The Love You Crave vs. The Love That Lasts

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 08:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John sits down with therapist Taune for a wide-ranging, honest conversation about the love lessons that shaped them — and the patterns many of us keep repeating without realizing it.

They explore how chemistry can masquerade as care, why intensity often feels familiar even when it’s unhealthy, and how relationships quietly shift when attraction turns into caretaking. Along the way, they unpack trauma bonding, attunement, playfulness, power dynamics, and what it really takes to sustain intimacy over time.

This is not a neat, list-driven episode. It’s a real conversation — the long way home — filled with reflection, humor, and uncomfortable truths about love, relationships, and self-abandonment.

Hard Things to Bring Up in Therapy | Boundaries, Breakups & Boredom

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 08:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John answers listener questions about breakups, emotional cheating, boredom in relationships, scarcity mindset, defensiveness, and what it really means to compromise without abandoning yourself.

Why is it harder to let go when things ended “well”? Is emotional cheating still cheating? When do needs become “demands”? And how much space is too much space for an avoidant partner?

This episode is about self-respect, emotional safety, and learning how to stay connected without losing yourself.

We explore:

Running into an ex and how to handle it
Letting go after a breakup (especially when it ends abruptly)
Scarcity vs. abundance in dating
Emotional cheating and betrayal
Compromise vs. self-abandonment
Defensiveness and where it comes from
Boredom in relationships
Giving avoidant partners space
Conflict over household structure

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re asking for too much — or settling for too little — this one’s for you.

What Changes After 40: Love, Selfhood, and What Matters

Mon, 09 Feb 2026 08:00:00 -0000

John sits down in Costa Rica (yes, literally in a golf cart) with two therapists — Vanessa Bennett and Madeleine Downey — for a “therapists are humans too” episode built around questions you’d ask in therapy… that end up turning into real-time revelations about identity after 40, emotional safety, and what we stop tolerating once we’ve lived a little.

This conversation lands especially hard if you’re in that season of life where you’re asking: Why doesn’t the old version of me fit anymore? and What do I actually want now — in love, in friendship, in myself?

Many people reach a confusing moment in their healing journey: they start dating healthier partners… and suddenly desire feels flat. Calm feels boring. Chemistry disappears.

What if the hardest part of healing isn’t pain — but joy?

John Kim talks with Dr. MC McDonald about grief, intimacy, self-trust, and the quiet ways we hide when connection feels unsafe. MC shares why joy has been the hardest emotion to let in, and how learning to feel safe again changes everything.

HARD THINGS TO BRING UP IN THERAPY | Dating, Distance & Letting Go

Thu, 29 Jan 2026 08:00:00 -0000

Some of the hardest questions we bring into therapy aren’t about what happened — they’re about why it hit so deeply.

In this episode, we explore the quiet, uncomfortable moments many people struggle to name:the anxiety between dates, the sudden loss of attraction, the grief that feels bigger than a divorce, and the confusion of wanting connection while needing boundaries.

These aren’t dramatic relationship crises — they’re quiet inner conflicts that many people carry alone. Naming them is often the first step toward clarity, self-respect, and emotional safety.

If any of these questions sound familiar, this episode is for you.

A Small Surf Moment With a Big Relationship Lesson

Wed, 28 Jan 2026 08:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John Kim shares a simple moment from the ocean that became a powerful lesson about relationships and emotional repair.

While learning to surf in Costa Rica, two very different encounters in the water reveal why ruptures are unavoidable—but repair is everything.

One moment of anger leads to disconnection. One moment of acknowledgment leads to instant safety and ease.

John also shares details about his upcoming surf retreat in Costa Rica—a space to slow down, regulate the nervous system, build real connection, and experience the healing power of the ocean together.

A reminder that the strength of any relationship isn’t measured by how little we rupture—but by how willing we are to repair.

Why You'll Never "Figure Life Out" (And Why That's Good News)

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 08:00:00 -0000

What if the problem isn’t that you haven’t found your purpose — but that you’re trying to find something that was never meant to be found?

In this episode, John sits down with Bill Burnett and Dave Evans, co-creators of Designing Your Life, to explore a radically relieving idea:

There is no final version of you.

Instead of chasing meaning, purpose, or fulfillment as a destination, Bill and Dave invite us to see life as a process of becoming — and meaning as something we practice daily, not achieve once.

This conversation is for anyone who feels behind, unfinished, or quietly exhausted from trying to “figure life out.”

You don’t need a breakthrough. You need a reframe.

Do You Ever Give Too Much in Love?

Wed, 21 Jan 2026 08:00:00 -0000

Do you find yourself giving more, waiting longer, explaining harder — just to keep love alive?

In this episode, John Kim reflects on overgiving, emotional boundaries, and the quiet ways we abandon ourselves in relationships. Recorded in Costa Rica, he uses lessons from surfing to explore why love shouldn’t feel like anxiety, confusion, or constant effort.

Inspired by the idea of “Let Them,” this episode offers a necessary reframe: there are some things you simply should not let people do.

This is a reminder that protecting your heart isn’t selfish — it’s essential.

You Didn’t Marry the Wrong Person: You’re Just in This Stage

Mon, 19 Jan 2026 08:00:00 -0000

You didn’t marry the wrong person — you’re just in a stage of your relationship.

In this episode, John Kim sits down with attachment expert Thais Gibson to break down the six stages of a relationship — and why so many couples get stuck thinking something is “wrong” when nothing is actually broken.

We talk about:

Why attachment styles are not labels, and how they can be rewired
The difference between dating, honeymoon, and the power struggle stage
Why most couples struggle after the honeymoon — and how to move forward
How early conditioning shapes adult relationships
What healthy long-term love actually looks like

If relationships have ever felt confusing, discouraging, or overwhelming, this episode gives you language, context, and relief.

Hard Things to Bring Up in Therapy | Love, Attachment & When to Let Go

Thu, 15 Jan 2026 08:00:00 -0000

Some of the most important questions we carry are the ones we’re afraid to say out loud — even in therapy.

In this episode, John answers real, vulnerable questions about self-worth, dating, anger, emotional safety, and long-term relationships. These are the thoughts people whisper to themselves at night, hesitate to bring into the room, or feel ashamed for having at all.

This conversation isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about slowing down, telling the truth, and understanding what’s really happening beneath the surface.

Stop Surviving the Fire: Start Living After It

Wed, 14 Jan 2026 08:00:00 -0000

A year ago, on January 7th, my house burned down.

This solo episode is a reflection on what that loss revealed — not just about grief, but about meaning, identity, and the quiet permission to live differently in the second half of life.

I talk about the difference between a house and a home, what it means to lose community, and why starting over isn’t always a failure — sometimes it’s prescribed. From standing in the ashes of my cul-de-sac to building a slower, more intentional life in Costa Rica, this episode explores how tragedy can become an act break instead of an ending.

This episode is for anyone who feels tired of grinding, restless in their current life, or quietly sensing that the second half deserves a rewrite. You don’t have to burn your life down to change it — but sometimes life lights the match for you.

Unlock Your Code

Wed, 31 Dec 2025 08:00:00 -0000

In this episode of the video course, we explore one of the most powerful concepts in personal transformation: unlocking your inner code.

You’ll learn how your false beliefs, old stories, and disconnected parts of self quietly shape your life — and how to rebuild a stronger, safer inner container that allows you to grow instead of staying stuck.

Through storytelling, real-life examples, and practical reflection prompts, John walks you through:

What You'll Learn:

How false beliefs form and how they silently run your life
Why dissolving them requires experience, not just mindset
How to reconnect with the parts of you you’ve abandoned over time
Why growth is a lifelong reunion with your inner self
How to create a life container that supports expansion, confidence, and purpose

Reflection Questions

What false beliefs are cracking your life container?
How are these beliefs rippling into your relationships, work, and self-esteem?
What new experience can you give your body to prove the belief wrong?
What part of you have you disconnected from?
What would it look like to reunite with that version of you?

This Episode Is For You If…

✔ You want to break patterns

✔ You want to feel more alive

✔ You’re ready to meet yourself again

✔ You want to grow without self-judgment

✔ You’re doing the work and want deeper tools

21 Questions You Should Ask Your Therapist with Lair Torrent - PART 2

Wed, 24 Dec 2025 08:00:00 -0000

This episode is about the parts of ourselves we don’t easily name.

In Part 2, we explore unspoken hurt, projection, scarcity, envy, anger, and intimacy — and how these experiences shape the way we show up in relationships and in our work.

We talk honestly about using productivity and helping others as a shield, the lingering fear that success doesn’t erase, and the protective parts we built long ago that may no longer serve us.

This is not about fixing yourself. It’s about recognizing what’s actually running the room.

A conversation for anyone willing to sit with truth — even when it’s uncomfortable.

21 Questions You Should Ask Your Therapist with Lair Torrent - PART 1

Mon, 22 Dec 2025 08:00:00 -0000

This episode is about what happens when we slow down and ask the questions that don’t come with neat answers.

In an honest and reflective conversation, we explore the inner world behind the therapist’s role — the places where healing is still unfolding, emotions are still complicated, and vulnerability still matters.

We talk about being seen in relationship, struggling with sadness and anger, the pull between authenticity and edge, and how early experiences shape the way we show up in life, love, and work.

This isn’t a lesson. It’s a conversation.

A reminder that healing doesn’t require perfection — only presence, honesty, and a willingness to stay with what’s real.

If you’re on your own journey of self-understanding, this episode meets you there.

Hard Things to Bring Up in Therapy: What We’re Afraid to Ask

Thu, 18 Dec 2025 08:00:00 -0000

In this episode of Hard Things to Bring Up in Therapy, we sit down with the questions people are often too afraid to ask out loud — the ones about love, loss, sex, shame, attachment, boredom, longing, and the quiet fear that maybe something is wrong with us.

From wondering why “healthy love” feels boring after toxicity… to grieving a breakup someone else moved on from too quickly… to asking how often long-term couples should be intimate… to questioning why we attract emotionally unavailable partners… to the messy, human moments around sex, desire, loneliness, and readiness.

These are the things we carry alone. This episode sets them down in the open.

Why This Episode Matters

These aren't just questions — they’re emotional crossroads.
Most people bring them into therapy last, if ever.
But naming them is the beginning of healing, clarity, and choosing differently.

Perfect For You If…

You’re in a season of confusion about love or relationships
You’re healing from a breakup
You’re dating but frustrated by your patterns
You want a healthier relationship with intimacy and connection
You’re afraid to ask the questions that matter most

Listen Now

Every question in this episode is a doorway. Step through.

Why We Repeat Patterns — And How to Heal Through Relationship

Mon, 15 Dec 2025 08:00:00 -0000

The difference between healthy excitement and chaos
How to navigate triggers with someone instead of alone

Going Rogue: The Truth About Becoming Yourself

Mon, 24 Nov 2025 08:00:00 -0000

In this raw, unfiltered reflection, John shares the real story behind going rogue as a therapist — from coffee-shop sessions to walk-and-talks, to breaking every rule therapy school ever taught him.

He explores the lifelong pattern of exchanging truth for membership, the fear of being seen, and the moment one client validated everything he was terrified to try.

This episode dives into authenticity, boundaries, regret, responsibility, and what it really means to help people while staying human yourself.

Key Themes & Takeaways:

Why authenticity often feels like rebellion
The moment validation becomes a catalyst
The battle between honesty and belonging
The emotional cost of doing therapy differently
The blurry line between helping and harming
The evolving role of therapists in a social media world
Why growth is abstract, nonlinear, and deeply personal

Hard Things to Bring Up in Therapy | Stay or Go?

Thu, 20 Nov 2025 08:10:00 -0000

In today’s Q&A, we get into the real questions people ask when they’re standing at the edge of a relationship crossroads. When you’re torn between fear and intuition… when the attraction feels off… when you’re trying to communicate your way through a situationship… when you’re healing but also craving connection… when you don’t know if you’re choosing someone, settling for someone, or staying because it feels safer than leaving.

These are the moments where the truth gets loud — if you’re willing to listen.

The 12 Principles of Secure Love + How to Fight Without Fighting

Wed, 12 Nov 2025 08:00:00 -0000

🎓 Full video course: HERE

All modules, worksheets, and bonus sessions. This video compiles key moments from two core modules from our relationship course:

Module 1 — The 12 Principles: a practical framework for secure-functioning relationships. These aren’t rules to follow perfectly - they’re principles that guide how you show up when things get hard. The real, messy, human version of healthy love where two people choose growth over perfection.

Module 2 — How to Fight Without Fighting: conflict isn’t the enemy; how we handle it is. You’ll learn tools that don’t require perfection, just presence — the kind that create safety instead of defensiveness so disagreements become connection-builders, not breakup fuel.

What You’ll Learn:

Why exchanging your truth for acceptance makes you lukewarm
“Corrective love” vs replaying the past’s highlight reel
How healthy love both confronts and delights

Attachment Trauma Series PART 3: Healing Shame: Why Safe Love Feels Scary with Rebecca Prolman

Wed, 05 Nov 2025 07:04:00 -0000

In this part 3 of our Attachment series, therapist Rebecca Prolman joins John Kim to unpack how childhood misattunement wires shame, why anger isn’t the enemy, and how “emotional completion” helps you reclaim the parts you exiled to survive. They explore corrective relationships (why real safety can feel scary), co-regulation for kids, and practical steps to move from fawning to sovereignty.

Key topics & takeaways:

Shame as a survival strategy that blocks primary emotions (grief/anger)
Emotional completion: feeling what shame protected so it can release
Co-regulation vs. punishment/time-outs for children’s anger
Corrective relationships: safety, grief, and why “boring” can be secure
Depth sustains attraction; chemistry alone burns out
Naming early ruptures without making caregivers “villains”

Methods mentioned: NARM — Neuro-Affective Relational Model (Dr. Laurence Heller ).

The Power of Not Giving a F*ck After 40

Wed, 15 Oct 2025 07:00:00 -0000

There’s a freedom that comes in your 40s that no one warns you about - because it doesn’t come from achievement or success. It comes from shedding.

In this episode, John and Vanessa talk about what it really means to stop giving a f*ck - not in the cynical sense, but in the self-loving one.It’s about choosing your energy wisely, letting go of people and stories that no longer fit, and returning to who you were before the world told you to shrink.

This is the power of midlife clarity. It’s not burnout - it’s rebirth.

In this episode:

What “not giving a f*ck” really means (hint: it’s not apathy)
How turning 40 rewires your priorities
Knowing what’s yours to own - and what’s not
The end of proving yourself and chasing validation
Returning to your core self
The quiet strength of keeping promises to yourself

Why Your World Feels Small (and How to Redefine Life Before It’s Too Late)

Mon, 01 Sep 2025 07:00:00 -0000

Sometimes life forces you to hit reset. For me, it was losing my house. For you, it might be a breakup, a career shift, or just that nagging feeling that life is smaller than it should be.

In this walk-and-talk episode from Costa Rica, I share how I’ve been redefining everything: happiness, relationships, play, even what “success” means. The truth is - growth doesn’t come from routines. It comes from curiosity, from being willing to reimagine your definitions.

You’ll hear stories of:

My second rebirth at 52
How living abroad reshaped my creativity and sense of play
Why redefining doesn’t require moving countries—it can start with friendships, hobbies, or daily joy
The hidden power of changing your environment

My challenge for you: What’s one thing you can redefine this week?

Today, John explores the vital role the nervous system plays in shaping our emotional health, relationships, and everyday experiences. He touches on how childhood experiences influence adult behavior, and practical techniques for nervous system regulation that foster healing and connection.

I'm running a 7-Day "Done with the Bullsh*t" Detox — this isn't the kind with green juice and caffeine withdrawals. It's a soul-level cleanse.

Here’s what you’ll detox each day:

Day 1: Cancel old contracts — the silent agreements you never meant to make.
Day 2: Break up with people-pleasing and reclaim your no.
Day 3: Unfollow the fantasy and stop chasing someone else’s timeline.
Day 4: Mute your inner critic and replace it with compassion.
Day 5: Cut out comparison and come back to your own path.
Day 6: Starve the reflex to fix everything — choose stillness instead.
Day 7: Fast from the noise and finally hear yourself again.

This isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about coming home to who you’ve always been.

Unblock Your Purpose with Francesca Sipma

Mon, 25 Nov 2024 08:00:00 -0000

Today, John brings on Francesca Sipma to discuss the journey of unlocking one's purpose through self-discovery and healing. They explore the importance of addressing emotional barriers, understanding intuition versus ego, aligning with the present, the transformative power of breathwork, and much more.

Francesca is a former New Yorker, who spent her career in advertising and marketing for top global brands, Google, Marriott and Bacardi. After 10 years of chasing an insatiable lifestyle, she experienced a radical awakening and went on a quest to find higher purpose. She found herself on a deep self-exploration journey exploring modalities and retreats all over Bali, India and Peru. In 2020 she pioneered her own methodology blending breathwork and hypnosis called Hypnobreathwork® and Flow State Breathwork®. She now has 100+ coaches spreading this transformative work across the globe.

Her new book, Unblock Your Purpose, presents a tangible and accessible process to identify old habits, clear blocks, and achieve ultimate fulfillment. Built on the wisdom Sipma has gleaned from her mentors and research as well as the thousands of students she’s led through breakthroughs, this guide explores how to:

• recognize and overcome emotional blockages created by childhood conditioning, societal expectations, and repressed emotions

• rewire limiting beliefs around self-doubt, fear, perfectionism, and procrastination

• tap into a flow state anytime, unlocking creativity and enhancing performance, problem-solving, and energy

Blending spirituality with the modern business world, science with emotion, logic with intuition, and surrender with discipline, Sipma’s debut book is a radical and accessible guide to using breathwork to achieve flow and discover one’s purpose for wealth and success.

Francesca is now an entrepreneur, speaker, coach and Founder/CEO of Mastry dedicated to helping people clear subconscious blocks and come into alignment with their purpose to live a life of meaning and impact.

Fairplay with Eve Rodsky

Mon, 14 Nov 2022 06:00:00 -0000

In this episode, John and Vanessa interview Eve Rodsky, New York Times best-selling author of Fair Play and National Bestseller, Find Your

Unicorn Space.

Eve Rodsky transformed a “blueberries breakdown” into a catalyst for social change when she applied her Harvard-trained background in organizational management to ask the simple yet profound question: What would happen if we treated our homes as our most important organizations? Her New York Times bestselling book and Reese’s Book Club Pick, Fair Play, a gamified life-management system that helps partners rebalance their domestic workload and reimagine their relationship, has elevated the cultural conversation about the value of unpaid labor and care. In her highly anticipated follow-up, Find Your Unicorn Space: Reclaim Your Creative Life in a Too-Busy World, Rodsky explores the cross-section between the science of creativity, productivity, and resilience. Described as the ‘antidote to physical, mental, and emotional burnout,’ Rodsky aims to inspire a new narrative around the equality of time and the individual right to personal time choice that influences sustainable and lasting change on a policy level. Rodsky’s work is backed by Hello Sunshine—Reese Witherspoon’s media company whose mission is to change the narrative for women through storytelling. Rodsky was born and raised by a single mom in New York City and now lives in Los Angeles with her husband Seth and their three children.

Unbroken With MC

Wed, 06 Jul 2022 05:00:00 -0000

John Kim talks to Dr. MC McDonald about her new book, Unbroken. We talk all things trauma - the fact that we don't get to adulthood without some exposure to trauma, what the most common misconceptions are regarding trauma, what a trigger actually is, and what healing can look like.

Unbroken starts off with a very simple idea: What if instead of seeing traumatic experience as that which breaks our spirit, we see it as that which proves our spirit cannot be broken?

With Unbroken, McDonald offers a radical reframing of how we understand trauma―and a profound new approach for healing. According to McDonald, trauma occurs whenever we experience something that shatters our structures of belief about the world and our place within it. When trauma occurs, our miraculous biological systems adapt to help us survive―and sometimes this creates a constellation of mysterious symptoms that persist long after the event. If we can see these initial adaptations as natural strength responses, we come away with a new path to healing. We must tend to our neurobiological systems while we grieve our shattered beliefs and find new meaning, peeling away layers of shame as we go.
