In this episode, licensed therapist John Kim gets personal about the mother wound - how it quietly shapes our self-worth, love life, and sense of safety. From a surprising MDMA journey insight to stories about his Korean-American upbringing, John unpacks what it's like to grow up without emotional warmth from mom - and how this absence leaves lasting imprints on both men and women. You'll learn: Why the mother wound isn't just a “women's issue” How emotional absence can be just as impactful as physical absence The different ways the mother wound shows up in men (approval seeking, caretaking confusion, fear of intimacy) and women (perfectionism, chronic self-doubt, boundary struggles) How it fuels unhealthy patterns like codependency, attachment insecurity, and emotional projection Practical steps for healing: naming the wound without blame, reparenting yourself, rewriting old relationship scripts, and doing inner child work Join the conversation!

If you're stuck in an unhealthy relationship and wondering whether it's right for you or you're recently facing the pain and confusion of a breakup, we invite you to tune into this episode with John Kim, also known as the Angry Therapist, to explore his viewpoint on relationship endings. John lays out how breakups or ‘relationship expirations' as he coins them, can serve as powerful catalysts to kickstart your own personal growth, and highlights the importance of self-reflection, healthy boundaries, and meaningful connection with yourself and others. Speaking from his own experiences, as well as insights and stories from his latest book, Breakup on Purpose, you'll hear why John sees breakups as not just painful endings but meaningful rites of passage that can offer space to learn and evolve. Listen and Learn:Breakups, while painful, can be a powerful catalyst for personal growth when approached with reflection and ownershipShifting how we view breakups from failures to “expired relationships” helps us embrace healing and rewrite the narrative around endingsHow to balance knowing when to work through relationship challenges versus when it's healthy to walk awayWhy breakups are a natural rite of passage and essential for personal growthWhy humility and self-reflection are essential but often difficult steps toward personal growthHealing from a breakup involves embracing the pain with compassion, finding purpose beyond the relationship, and transforming personal loss into growth and a greater meaningful journeyHow society places too much importance on romantic love as the sole source of meaning and fulfillment and elying on one romantic partner to fulfill all needs is unrealistic and sets people up for disappointmentBreakups have distinctive types that require different responses and healing strategiesHow to balance self-comfort with avoiding behaviors that hinder healing after a breakup by setting personal limits and gradually re-engaging with lifeThe importance of meaningful connection, whether through community, close relationships, or personal passions, as a vital part of recovery, especially for introvertsThe cycle of rupture and repair in relationships is essential, teaching us how to build deeper connection, resilience, and emotional safetyResources:John's Website: https://www.theangrytherapist.com/John's Books: Break Up On Purpose: https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780063275331 Single On Purpose: https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780062980731 Connect with John on Socials: https://www.facebook.com/john.kim.1650/https://www.linkedin.com/in/theangrytherapisthttps://www.instagram.com/theangrytherapist/Power of Discord by Ed Tronick and Claudia Gold: https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780316488877 Man's Search for Meaning by Victor Frankl: https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780807060100 About John KimJohn Kim, widely known as 'The Angry Therapist.'

Have you ever thought about being your own boss? What kind of business would you start if you could? In this special compilation episode of On Purpose, Jay Shetty curates powerful insights from five extraordinary entrepreneurs: Emma Grede, Michael Rubin, Codie Sanchez, Brian Chesky, and Suneera Madhani, offering a dynamic, behind-the-scenes look at what it truly takes to build something meaningful from scratch. Each guest brings a unique lens to the entrepreneurial journey: Emma Grede reminds us that the most powerful companies are born by solving real problems for underserved communities; Codie Sanchez breaks down how grit, financial fluency, and deal-making are more crucial than a flashy idea; while Brian Chesky reveals that building a world-changing company like Airbnb starts with seeing your business as a reflection of your inner world. Jay weaves these stories into a powerful masterclass on purpose-driven entrepreneurship, showing that success doesn’t come from confidence, funding, or perfection. It comes from grit, learning through failure, and showing up again and again. Michael Rubin drives home the power of obsession and adaptability, while Suneera Madhani brings it back to reality, reminding us that the biggest risk isn’t failing, it’s never starting. It’s a powerful reminder that stepping out of comfort and into aligned action is where true transformation begins. In this episode, you'll learn: How to Build a Purpose-Driven Brand from Scratch How to Master Deal-Making and Speak the Language of Money How to Stay Innovative When Success Hits How to Start a Business Without Industry Expertise How to Scale a Company Without Losing Your Values How to Take Risks Without Letting Fear Lead the Way The most meaningful work often comes from solving problems close to your heart, staying curious, and showing up even when it’s hard.

A Manifestation Challenge with Cleo Massey from Pass Around the Smile. Welcome to episode 3, Align & AllowRegister to be a part of Week 4's Live Podcast Recording Here.Download the ritual soundtrack, colouring book and the Make It More Than A Dream work book here!This episode is all about stepping out of hustle and into flow… because manifesting isn't just about asking for what you want… it's about becoming the version of you who's ready to receive it. (eeee!)We dive into what it really means to align with your desires ~ emotionally, energetically and practically. I chat about how to raise your vibration so you're attracting people, opportunities and experiences that match your magic. And yep, we get into the juicy stuff like visualisation, acting as if, and shifting your emotional baseline so your nervous system knows it's safe to receive.We also explore what happens when energies don't align… you know when you're doing all the things but it's just not flowing?! Often this is when you need to surrender and trust, but of course when we want something, it can be so hard to let go ~ because it's natural to want to control it. But when you give up the need to control, life flows with you instead of against you.There's a bit of brain science too, (don't worry, I keep it light!) including how to quiet your logical side and tap into that beautiful, expansive right side of the brain where creativity and divine inspiration live.This one is for you if you're ready to loosen your grip, let go of the how, and co-create something even better than you imagined.The Universe cannot deliver to a closed door….

A Manifestation Challenge with Cleo Massey from Pass Around the Smile. Welcome to episode 2, ‘Ask It Like You Mean It,' Download the ritual soundtrack, colouring book and the Make It More Than A Dream work book here!The ritual soundtrack is a powerful 25-minute ritual led by me, Cleo! This immersive experience weaves together guided meditations, journaling prompts, and affirmations designed to support you in manifesting your desires.

An inspiring escape to help you switch off, surrender, and let go as your manifestations unfold.In this episode, we explore a powerful question: Why are you whispering your dreams instead of declaring them?I dive deep into how to ask from a place of alignment and confidence ~ not fear or scarcity. We talk about how to ask, when to ask, and who to ask, and we unpack the common mistakes many of us make when we shrink our desires out of fear of failure, judgment, or our own potential. We also explore the way we perceive our dreams, and how it's not the Universe or the Law of Attraction that sees them as big or difficult ~ it's us. That perception alone can create resistance and block the very thing we're trying to call in.When you ask loud and clear, you're affirming: I know who I am, I feel worthy of what I want and I trust that the universe is listening.You'll hear why the feeling behind your ask is just as important as the words ~ and how to shift from a hesitant hope to a bold, clear declaration. I also share how to handle asking for multiple things, when it may be too much, and how to stay grounded in your truth and what you deserve.This week's optional extra is a 20-minute ritual soundtrack ~ featuring guided meditation, aligned journal prompts, and beautiful music to elevate your mindset and help you manifest with more ease and intention.
