Show Notes
What are you curious about these days?
What if taking stock of what you're interested in, and what you're ready to leave behind, could reveal exactly where you're headed next?
In this solo episode, John Kim shares a personal list of the ideas, experiences, and questions capturing his attention in this season of life, alongside the habits, mindsets, and patterns he's no longer interested in carrying. From curiosity and possibility to letting go of certainty and external validation, this conversation is an invitation to reflect on what's changing within you.
In this episode:
• Why curiosity has become more important than certainty
• How strangers can become chosen family
• The value of holding on loosely instead of gripping tightly
• Letting go of validation, grudges, and winning arguments
• Friending your demons instead of fighting them
• Why defining what you're no longer interested in matters

What if the hardest chapters of your life are actually setting you up for something you can't see yet?
At 53, I've realized that some of life's biggest lessons aren't about getting ahead. They're about learning when to take the leap, when to let go, how to love without losing yourself, and how to stop waiting for some future version of your life before you start living.
Resentment rarely comes from one big moment. More often, it builds through the small things we don't talk about: the dishes, the forgotten gestures, the mental load, and the feeling that you're the only one making an effort.
What does genuine love actually look like? It may have less to do with how someone makes you feel and more to do with whether you can truly see them, allow them to be themselves, and continue meeting them as both of you change.
We were handed a blueprint for what a “good life” is supposed to look like: fall in love, get married, buy the house, have kids, build a career, and stay together.
