#325 How to Create a New Blueprint for Love with John Kim

In today’s expert episode, I’m joined by John Kim, a licensed therapist, speaker, and author you might know as The Angry Therapist on Instagram. We dive deep into his brand new book "Love Hard on Purpose" and break down the idea of “love blueprints”—the subconscious definitions of love we’re operating from, often shaped by our upbringing, movies, and social media. We discuss how these definitions can set us up for disappointment in relationships, why it’s normal to start out equating codependency with love, and how to create a healthier definition moving forward after heartbreak. John shares powerful visual metaphors for love, gives advice for those feeling like their relationship was a “failure,” and discusses how to actually rebuild and redefine love after a breakup.
