Hi I had the same problem today, but found out how to fix it:

1. install nest_asyncio package:

pip install nest_asyncio

1. import and apply nest_asyncio:

import nest_asyncio
nest_asyncio.apply()

After that, it ran smoothly to me.

I found out about the solution on the following blog post

Good luck!
