#484: When the Life You Built Becomes Your Prison

In this episode I talk about what it really means to outgrow who you’ve been - that moment when the identity that once felt safe starts to feel like a cage. I share about my own transition, how easy it is to get trapped in who people think you are, and how terrifying it can be to let that version of you die. But that death is where freedom begins. This conversation is an invitation to look at the titles, labels, and stories that have kept you comfortable yet disconnected, and to remember that you already have the wisdom to guide yourself forward. I explore how to reclaim your energy from distraction, use your past as a map for your evolution, and walk yourself out of the prison of certainty and into the aliveness of possibility.

#483: How to Effortlessly Manifest Your Dream Life: Lacy Phillips

In this episode Mark sits down with Lacy Phillips, founder of To Be Magnetic and author of How to Manifest, for an inspiring conversation about how to bridge psychology, energy, and intentional living to create an authentic life. Lacy shares the truth about manifestation—why it’s not about blind optimism, but deep self-awareness and integration. Together they explore the role of technology in shaping our desires, the growing pull toward analog living, and how reclaiming sovereignty from collective conditioning leads to true empowerment. Lacy dives into how “tests from the universe” are actually invitations to embody our worth, and why following our intuitive pings is the key to living in alignment with our truest selves. Lacy Phillips is a global manifestation expert and the founder of To Be Magnetic—the #1 manifestation brand rooted in neuroscience. Her revolutionary method combines psychology, neuroplasticity, and energetics to rewire limiting beliefs at the subconscious level.

#482: Meet the Parts of You That Are Waiting to Be Heard: Dr. Richard Schwartz

In this episode Mark sits down with Dr. Richard Schwartz, founder of Internal Family Systems (IFS), for a profound conversation about healing the parts of ourselves that carry pain, trauma, and protection. They dive into the power of “unburdening” — the process of releasing individual, ancestral, and collective wounds — and how doing so reconnects us to the self, the calm, compassionate center within us all. Dr. Schwartz breaks down the roles of our inner protectors, exiles, and firefighters, explaining how true healing happens when we stop exiling our pain and start listening to it with curiosity and love. Together, Mark and Richard explore how parts work bridges psychology and spirituality, why even our most destructive parts are rooted in protection, and how accessing the Self transforms not only our internal world but the collective one around us. Richard C. Schwartz, PhD, is the creator of Internal Family Systems, a highly effective, evidence-based therapeutic model that de-pathologizes the multi-part personality. His IFS Institute offers training for professionals and the general public. He is currently on the faculty of Harvard Medical School, and has published five books, including No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model.

#481: The Mental Health Movement Has Lost the Plot with Joe Nucci

In this episode Mark sits down with psychotherapist and author Joe Nucci to unpack the rise of psychobabble—how social media has turned mental health into bite-sized buzzwords that distort the truth about healing, growth, and relationships. They dive deep into the myths that dominate online conversations—like “your feelings are always valid,” “everyone’s a narcissist,” and “everything is ADHD”—and explore how oversimplified self-diagnosis and viral therapy language can actually keep us stuck instead of setting us free. Together, they challenge the culture of self-labeling, discuss how nuance and personal accountability are essential for real mental wellness, and offer a refreshing, grounded perspective on what it really means to heal in today’s hyper-digital world. Joe Nucci, LPC, is a licensed psychotherapist, writer, and social media influencer. His content contextualizes mental health misinformation, pop-psychology facts and fallacies, and culturally misconstrued ideas. Joe’s work focuses on empowering individuals—whether or not they have abackground in psychology—so they can live a life with a greater sense of agency and self-awareness.

#480: When Things Fall Apart

In this episode I dive into what happens when life completely falls apart—when everything you thought was certain suddenly isn’t, and you’re left wondering who you are and where to go next. I explore the beauty and pain of disorientation, those moments when everything feels dismantled but are actually guiding you back home to yourself. This isn’t about fixing or forcing your way through the chaos—it’s about learning to sit in the space between, trusting that what’s breaking down is making space for what’s real. I’ll walk you through how to reclaim the parts of yourself you’ve left behind, rebuild trust in your own voice, and remember that sometimes the falling apart is actually the becoming.

#479: Forgiveness Is for You, Not Them

In this episode I dive into the often-misunderstood process of forgiveness and letting go—what it truly takes, why it’s so elusive, and how to move beyond pain without abandoning yourself. I break down the traps that keep us stuck in resentment, the difference between oversharing and authentic vulnerability, and how grief and anger can become catalysts for growth rather than prisons of suffering. Through powerful insights, stories, and timeless wisdom, I explore how to transform wounds into wisdom, create closure without waiting for it, and trust that nothing meant for you will ever require you to betray who you are.

#478: Authenticity Over Approval

In this episode I dive into the truth about authenticity—what it really means, why it’s so often compromised, and how the pull between belonging and self-expression shapes our lives. I unpack the ways codependency and people-pleasing keep us wearing masks, the cultural and relational pressures that silence our voices, and the cost of abandoning ourselves for acceptance. Through stories, research, and practical insights, I invite you to explore where you’ve been prioritizing connection over truth, and how to begin reintroducing yourself to the world with courage, boundaries, and authenticity that’s rooted in choice, not fear.

#477: The Mother Wound - How to Heal What You Inherited With Bethany Webster

In this episode, Mark sits down with author and thought leader Bethany Webster for a powerful deep dive into the “mother wound” and how it unconsciously shapes our sense of self, relationships, and capacity to thrive. Bethany breaks down the four levels of the mother wound, how family dynamics and cultural conditioning intertwine, and why so many of us carry invisible patterns of self-abandonment, guilt, or people-pleasing. Through her own story and years of teaching, she reveals how confronting and healing these wounds can liberate us from inherited beliefs, create healthier boundaries, and unlock greater authenticity in love, work, and life. This is an eye-opening conversation on breaking cycles, reclaiming sovereignty, and learning to mother ourselves with compassion and truth. Bethany Webster is considered a global expert on healing the Mother Wound. She is a writer, international speaker and transformational coach. Bethany started blogging in 2013 about the Mother Wound and quickly experienced worldwide demand for her work. Through blending research on intergenerational trauma, feminist theory, and psychology with her own personal story, Bethany's work is the result of decades of research and her own journey of healing. Bethany speaks, consults and mentors around the world sharing her growing body of work that is raising the standard of women’s leadership and personal development.

#476: Reclaiming Your Power from Technology

In this episode I pull back the curtain on our relationship with technology and reveal how platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and even YouTube are reshaping our nervous systems, stealing our choices, and silently eroding the depth of our relationships. I break down the psychology of manipulation baked into algorithms, how dependency mirrors toxic relationship dynamics, and why our phones have become the most powerful—and most destructive—relationship in our lives. This isn’t just a critique of social media; it’s a wake-up call to reclaim your sovereignty, restore choice, and consciously design a healthier relationship with technology so you can fully show up for yourself, your purpose, and the people you love Resources: —Get My Book!

In this episode, Mark sits down with legendary FBI hostage negotiator and Never Split the Difference author Chris Voss to unpack the art of communication that can transform every relationship. From tactical empathy to the neuroscience of feeling understood, Chris reveals how the same skills that save lives in crisis can deepen connection, defuse conflict, and build lasting trust in love. They explore why compromise often erodes intimacy, how self-talk shapes our relational patterns, and what it really takes to be heard.

#467: God Is Everywhere, Or Nowhere

In this episode, I reflect on my evolving relationship with the word “God” and the journey that brought me back to faith—not religion, but a felt sense of trust in something greater.

#463: #463: Why Suppressed Emotions Become Symptoms with Nicole Sachs

In this episode, psychotherapist and author Nicole Sachs joins Mark Groves to explore the profound connection between emotional repression and chronic pain. Drawing from her personal story of healing from a debilitating spinal condition, Nicole shares how unprocessed trauma, perfectionism, and suppressed emotion get trapped in the body—manifesting as pain and illness. She introduces her groundbreaking method, JournalSpeak™, and explains how radical honesty, nervous system regulation, and self-compassion can unlock deep healing. This conversation is a wake-up call for anyone struggling with physical symptoms that traditional medicine can’t explain. If you’ve ever wondered if your pain has a story to tell, this episode is your invitation to listen. Diagnosed with a degenerative spinal condition in her twenties, Nicole Sachs transformed her life through Mindbody medicine after discovering the work of Dr. John Sarno. What began as a personal healing journey evolved into a professional collaboration—she lectured with Sarno at NYU and supported his patients through her private psychotherapy practice. For over 20 years, Nicole has researched chronic conditions and helped countless people heal by addressing the root cause: a dysregulated nervous system stuck in fight-or-flight, attempting to suppress unresolved emotions and trauma. Her practical, science-backed approach has been featured in USA Today, Woman’s World, and the Washington Post.

#455 Becoming the Curator of Your Mind

In this episode, I share a raw and reflective recording from a recent membership call where I explore what it means to truly surrender when life isn’t going the way we planned. I open up about personal struggles—from a home renovation disaster to deeper emotional reckonings—and unpack how resistance to reality often fuels our suffering. We dive into the complexities of relational dynamics, victimhood, shadow work, and the paradox of healing. If you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or at war with your own experience, this episode invites you to return to presence, self-honesty, and the power of simply “chopping wood and carrying water.” It’s vulnerable, unfiltered, and an invitation to meet yourself exactly where you are.

#449: Why Avoidant partners NEED you to LEAVE them

In this solo episode, I dive into the complicated dance between anxious and avoidant attachment styles—and why, sometimes, avoidant people actually need you to leave for real growth to happen. I unpack how chasing someone who’s always got one foot out the door pulls you out of alignment with yourself, and how the true healing starts when you stop over-functioning and learn to stand still. With personal stories (yes, even my not-so-great stick figure drawings), I share what it means to stop colluding with emotional unavailability and start building self-trust. This episode is a straight-up call to honor your nervous system, set boundaries that actually mean something, and break free from the anxious-avoidant loop that’s been draining your soul.

#440: What Your Doctor Won’t Tell You About Mold, Fatigue & Brain Fog with Dan Huber

In this episode Dan Huber’s remarkable journey from chronic illness to healing reveals just how deeply environmental toxins—especially mold—can affect our well-being, leading to conditions like chronic pain, fatigue, and brain fog. After years of frustration with traditional medicine and unanswered symptoms, Dan uncovered the hidden dangers in his own home and transformed his health through detoxification, circadian rhythm alignment, and conscious lifestyle changes. In this powerful conversation, we dive into the overlooked connection between our surroundings and our bodies, the dangers of everyday household toxins, and practical steps to reclaim vitality. Dan also shares how his experience led him to create Lucia Eyes, a company focused on blue light protection, and his nonprofit, Hope Chain, which supports mental health in young people. If you've ever struggled with unexplained health issues or want to take a proactive approach to well-being, this episode is a must-listen. Dan Huber is a relentless advocate for health, resilience, and purpose-driven innovation. After the 2008 mortgage crisis left his family in financial ruin, he faced another devastating challenge in 2011 when a severe mold infestation in their home led to mysterious illnesses. Determined to find answers, he immersed himself in alternative medicine and founded Lucia Eyes, a company specializing in blue-light-blocking glasses to help others combat environmental health threats. His expertise became a lifeline in 2023 when he aided a convent of nuns suffering from mold exposure—an experience marked by miraculous healing and profound spiritual encounters. He also founded HopeChain.com, an anti-suicide nonprofit for children, and serves on nonprofit boards including Kickstart Kids and the Child Liberation Front. With a passion for advocacy, innovation, and healing, Huber continues to make a lasting impact across industries and communities. —Instagram: @luciaeyesofficial —Website: www.luciaeyes.com use code LOVE20 for 20% off Themes: Chronic Illness, Mold Toxicity, Environmental Health, Detoxification, Brain Fog, Chronic Fatigue, Blue Light, Circadian Rhythm, Natural Healing, Holistic Health, Health Recovery, Toxin Exposure, Mold Exposure, Light Therapy, Wellness Tips, Health Podcast, Alternative Medicine, Mental Health, Biohacking, Sleep Optimization, Healthy Living, Immune Support, Hidden Toxins, Home Toxins, Natural Remedies, Holistic Healing, Functional Medicine, Wellness Journey, Health Awareness 0:00:00 Intro 0:00:19 Introduction to Chronic Health Mysteries 0:02:28 Meet Dan Huber 0:03:18 Dan's Journey from Illness to Health 0:05:20 Discovering the Mold Problem 0:07:52 The Impact of Mold on Health 0:12:03 Addressing Depression and Mental Health 0:14:40 The Effects of Blue Light 0:16:05 Circadian Rhythms and Hormonal Health 0:18:12 Finding Solutions for Mold and Mycotoxins 0:24:37 The Importance of Sunlight 0:27:10 Mold Symptoms and Testing 0:33:55 The Role of Toxins in Our Lives 0:39:58 Emotional Impact of Mold Exposure 0:43:35 Strategies for Mold Prevention 0:49:44 Practical Steps to Improve Health 0:58:17 Resources for Further Support —This episode is sponsored by the Institute for Integrative Nutrition: Certified Health Coach Training: Use code MARKGROVES20 for 20% off ALL courses from IIN & Chopra at http://bit.ly/MARKIIN —Have a question For Mark to answer on the podcast?https://www.speakpipe.com/TheMarkGrovesPodcast —Have a question for Mark and want an immediate answer?

#438: Perfectly Fractured: The Hidden Genius of Your Divided Self

In this solo episode, I dive into a transformative journey of self-exploration — sharing my recent experience of a guided session with MDMA and psilocybin, combined with internal family systems (IFS) parts work. This experience illuminated deep insights about the many parts within me — those seeking validation, safety, and creative expression — revealing how they shape my life, emotions, and decision-making. Through raw reflection, I explore the tension between my bold, unapologetic self and the version of me that fears judgment, uncovering the path to integration rather than suppression. From childhood wounds to the complexities of social media’s grip on identity, this episode unpacks the ways we can reconnect with our hearts, honor our inner worlds, and find peace in embracing all aspects of who we are.

#436: The Medicalization of Birth and the Rise of Midwifery with Lindsey Meehleis

Becoming a parent is a profound transformation, filled with both awe and responsibility. Midwife Lindsay Meehleis, with over two decades of experience, joins the conversation to reveal the deeper wisdom of birth, the power of intuition, and the ways medical intervention has shaped modern childbirth. Through personal reflections and expert insights, we uncover how birth is not just a medical event but a sacred rite of passage — one that requires trust, advocacy, and a return to natural wisdom. From the role of fathers in the birthing process to the cultural fears surrounding childbirth, this episode is a call to reclaim birth as an intuitive, empowering experience that shapes not only our children but our own personal growth. For the past 22 years, Lindsey Meehleis has worked in Healthcare, being called into Birthwork 20 years ago and having witnessed thousands of women birth their babies. Trained traditionally and licensed through the Medical Board, she quickly learned that what is needed in the magic and mystery of birth and death can't be found in a book. She weaves "Great Grandma Wisdom" into our modern world. She has witnessed a drastic shift in Healthcare since 2020 and looks forward to co-creating a new future of what true medicine always was. She gets down to the nitty-gritty of LIFE and everything it brings while illustrating the power that we have within, showing that birth, life, and death are pivotal rites of passage that deserve to be held in sacred deep reverence. —Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lindseymeehleis/ —Website: https://www.theremembering.com/ Resources: —Ready to transform your relationships?
