I’ve spent a ton of time over the past several weeks really contemplating my performance and how I’m showing up both personally and professionally for my family, friends, and those of you who tune into what we’re doing here with Order of Man. It’s been a lot of time of self-reflection and, as challenging as it can be and has been in the past, it’s been therapeutic and helped me get back on the path I want to travel.
And, speaking of therapeutic, my guest today is John Kim, AKA The Angry Therapist. Today, we talk about the differences between liking and loving yourself and which is better to strive for, why we have to be careful of stamping ourselves as failures, how to uncover false beliefs burned in our subconscious, the power of identifying our value systems, and how to move away from the “pseudo self” to the “solid self.”

John Kim
My guest today is someone who I’ve been following for quite some time and I can tell you that his messages and podcast have been instrumental in helping me on my own self-development journey.
His name is John Kim and you may know him as The Angry Therapist. He is a licensed therapist and life coach, co-founder of TAT Lab and Lumia Coach Training, and a best-selling author of several books including his latest book, It’s Not Me, It’s You: Break the Blame Cycle. Relationship Better.
John’s personal path has led him to become a pioneer in the field of self-help and helping others cut through the B.S. (you’re going to hear a lot of that today). This one was a bit like my own personal therapy session and I know you’ll get a ton out of it too.
