For Dr Chronister, TikTok has translated into other meaningful prodjects. “My TikTok followers actually requested that I write a book about how to get over breakups, so I wrothe Breakup Recovery. Next, they requested a podcast, so I began producing Love to Heal with Dr Kim.” Dr Chronister’s podcast Love to Heal with Dr Kim features guests like LA-based actors, athletes, attorneys, and singers where they discuss topics like motivation, attachment styles, breakup recovery, cognitive conditioning, and healing from all kinds of life transitions.
