  • Costa Rica….stop!

    We know you moved to Costa Rica!!!! Stop! This podcast is supposed to be to serve others and it has become a journal of your move to Costa Rica and how you used to have long hair but now it is short and you ride a golf cart instead of a motorcycle. It seems like each podcast is just repeating the same thing.. the surfing, your revelations on your life. This podcast should be to help your audience…

  • Hosts

    I do get value from this podcast but in the back of my head wonder about taking relationship advice from someone whose relationship seems so..practical and cold. I feel like Jon should be getting therapy to help him find someone who treats him warm, more loving. His wife is like ice, always saying passive things that are so negative towards him. There is no warmth between, just scientific relationship speak. I feel like he deserves better and would be happier with someone who can more easily sho... more

  • Get over the adds people!!! 🙄 Real life issues, Real people, Great insight!

    I’ve been listening to John Kim for over four years now, and he continues to amaze me with his insight and compassion. His ability to break down mental health topics into relatable, practical guidance has given me so many tools to manage certain behaviors and challenges in my own life. I also appreciate when he brings his partner Vanessa onto the podcast to give her insight which is very helpful from a woman’s perspective, given her experiences and even more so now that she’s a mother.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Therapy Thursdays: How to know when to stay, repair, or let go
Q: How do you rebuild trust after infidelity?
Rebuilding requires time, clear ground rules, and both partners committing to a new, shared foundation. It's about redefining expectations and ensuring both people are actively participating in the repair rather than dwelling on past injuries.
Therapy Thursdays: How to know when to stay, repair, or let go
Q: He says he will divorce his wife, but he hasn't. Should I wait?
Assess the situation by asking about practicality and patterns: how long the separation has been, whether there is clear movement toward ending the marriage, and whether the other person is truly available and trustworthy. If the situation is messy with broken promises, it may be wise to reassess rather than waiting indefinitely.
Asian Shame, Childhood Trauma, and the Friendships That Heal Us with Sam Louie
Q: What inspired you to talk about Asian shame and your relationship with that topic as a therapist?
Sam explains that Asian shame is learned through family expectations, cultural naming pressures, and navigating two worlds (Hong Kong/Chinese heritage and American culture), which later made sense through therapy and self-reflection. He emphasizes compassion for parts of himself that carried shame and how therapy reframes these experiences as opportunities for growth.
Therapy Thursdays | Love, Trust, and Knowing When to Let Go
Q: How can partners renew desire when it has faded?
Rebuild by reintroducing polarity and seeing each other as whole individuals, maintaining your own life and spark, and creating conditions of presence, curiosity, and honest conversation about changes in desire.
Therapy Thursdays | Love, Trust, and Knowing When to Let Go
Q: How do you manage guilt when being honest yet potentially hurting your partner?
Express your truth with kindness and stay curious about the origins of your feelings; the aim is connection, not injury, and the partner must also contribute to processing the impact of what's said.
