About this eBook

The author of I Used to Be a Miserable F*ck, The Angry Therapist, now teaches you how to prioritize your relationship with yourself and live a more meaningful life, whether you’re alone, dating, or with a partner.

There’s more to life than loving someone. But being single can feel like a death sentence. Why does being alone = being lonely? And why do we stop working on ourselves when we’re in a relationship?

After a painful divorce, “The Angry Therapist” John Kim realized he had never truly been on his own. He went on a journey to rebuild his relationship with himself, going from alone and disconnected to alone and fulfilled.

Kim has gone on to help thousands of clients find their own unique way to break free of expectations and finally live their truth. With Single on Purpose, Kim takes his signature no-BS “self-help in a shot glass” approach as he shares his own singlehood story and shows readers how to own their shit, break their patterns, and find a grounded sense of self.

Spending time to cultivate your relationship with yourself shouldn’t be something you only do when you hit rock bottom, go through a major loss, or have a quarter-life crisis. All of us, at some point, need to be single—on purpose.

Ratings and reviews

I listened to the unabridged audio of this title from the public library. Sadly the message the author is trying to convey is hurt greatly by his excessive, overuse and abuse of profanity thru out the entire book.Would of been a better book with out all the profanity and foul language.

I rarely read book in my life but I finished this book : Single. On purpose. For the first time I realized that I didn't love myself enough and this book is an eye opener ! Get it today, read, understand and practice. For those who read this review, I pray that you will love yourself more.

I like reading it It felt like I'm having a conversation with someone other than my own thoughts
