In this powerful and heartfelt episode of the Mark Groves Podcast, Jon Vroman, founder of Front Row Dads, delivers a bold call to action for men to reorient their lives around what truly matters—family. Sharing his own awakening sparked by a sobering truth from his wife, Vroman reveals how he went from a high-achieving, externally praised speaker to a father and husband deeply committed to presence over performance. He challenges the societal norm of defining success through business accolades, urging men to become "family men with businesses, not businessmen with families." Through raw stories, vulnerable insights, and practical wisdom, this conversation is a must-listen for anyone seeking to lead with purpose, deepen relationships, and build a legacy from the inside out.

Jon Vroman is a social entrepreneur, bestselling author, and award-winning speaker on a mission to help people “live life in the front row.” As the founder of the Front Row Foundation, he creates unforgettable experiences for individuals facing life-threatening illnesses, and through his book The Front Row Factor, podcast, and live events, he inspires others to live with intention, presence, and purpose. With over 750 keynotes delivered and a reputation for deeply connecting with audiences, Jon empowers individuals to align their values, strengthen relationships, and build legacies that matter—starting at home. He’s also the proud founder of Front Row Dads, a devoted husband, father of two, and an ultra-marathon runner.

In this episode, Mark Groves invites neuro-rewiring expert Mike Zeller to unpack their powerful, MDMA and psilocybin-assisted Internal Family Systems session—recorded just one day after Mark’s own transformative experience. They dive into the real impact of psychedelic-assisted therapy in rewiring the nervous system, resolving trauma, and integrating fragmented parts of the self. Through raw storytelling, Mike shares his wife's extraordinary healing from treatment-resistant depression and complex PTSD, while Mark vulnerably reflects on reclaiming his voice, confronting suppressed emotions, and shedding years of internal chaos. This isn’t just a conversation—it’s a radical invitation to rethink healing, reclaim emotional sovereignty, and access your deepest power with clarity and compassion.

Mike Zeller uses a unique combination of neuroscience, NLP, biohacking, somatic healing, flow state psychology, & psychedelics (when appropriate) to bring a rapid and lasting rewiring of your subconscious and nervous system that goes far deeper than typical mindset experts.

In this episode, Mark Groves dives deep into the intersection of health, personal sovereignty, and systemic deception with Brian Sanders, founder of the Sapien Center and creator of the "Food Lies" documentary series. Together, they peel back the layers of societal conditioning around nutrition, medicine, and authority—challenging the legitimacy of mainstream narratives about health, pharmaceutical intervention, and government control. Mark and Brian share personal awakenings that led them to reject hollow paradigms—from the food pyramid to pharma-driven healthcare—in favor of a return to foundational, ancestral principles of nourishment, movement, nature, and authentic community. With compelling anecdotes, sharp insights, and a powerful call to reclaim individual agency, this conversation is a radical invitation to question everything and live more intentionally, rooted in what it truly means to be human.

Brian Sanders is the filmmaker behind the Food Lies documentary, host of the top 5 nutrition podcast Peak Human, and an international speaker. He graduated from UCLA with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. He’s the founder of Sapien Center, a popular health club in Austin. He also works to spread the awareness of regenerative agriculture and increase access to well-raised animal products through his nationwide meat & body care company Nose to Tail.

In this powerful conversation with Mark Groves, she shares how reconnecting with her body and nature helped her go from mobility aids to walking marathons. Now a psychotherapist and natural lifestyle coach, Samphire helps others break free from chronic pain by tuning into the body’s wisdom and healing from the inside out. Her story is a moving reminder that we’re not broken—we just need to listen.

In this episode, Mark sits down with Ashleigh Di Lello for a jaw-dropping conversation about the power of the nervous system, the mind-body connection, and what it really takes to heal from the inside out. Ashleigh shares her extraordinary journey—from being told she wouldn’t live past her teens, to becoming a world-class dancer, to fighting through chronic pain and nearly losing her life again. What brought her back wasn’t medicine—it was rewiring her brain, facing unresolved trauma, and stepping into radical self-trust. We explore how the stories we’re told (and tell ourselves) shape our biology, and how healing isn’t about perfection—it’s about learning to work with your nervous system, not against it. This one is raw, inspiring, and a masterclass in turning pain into purpose.

Ashleigh Di Lello is the founder and creator of Bio Emotional Healing®, a revolutionary method based in neuroscience that helps her clients around the world finally break free from emotional trauma, limiting beliefs, anxiety, and the effects of chronic pain and illness. Despite being told by doctors she wouldn't live past her teenage years, she refused to give up and discovered the secret to rewiring the brain-body connection. She became an elite athlete, TV & Broadway star, entrepreneur, Brain Coach, and keynote speaker.

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.

In this episode, Mark Groves sits down with the always-wise Kate Northrup for a heart-expanding, truth-bomb-filled convo that flips the script on how we think about money, success, and self-worth. Kate unpacks the surprisingly deep connection between your nervous system and your relationship with money—how the way you spend, save, or stress is often tied to how safe you feel in your body. They dive into the power of doing less, the myths of hustle culture, and how rest and regulation are the real keys to abundance. From motherhood and identity to healing old patterns and choosing aliveness over burnout, this one’s all about coming home to yourself—and rewriting the rules of what it means to live a rich life.

As an entrepreneur, bestselling author, and mother, Kate Northrup supports ambitious people to light up the world without burning themselves out. Kate teaches how to heal your relationship with money, time, and work. She’s the author of the bestsellers Money: A Love Story and Do Less, the creator of the Do Less Planner, and the host of the top ranking podcast, Plenty. Her work has been featured by The NY Times, Oprah Daily, The Today Show, Glamour, Harvard Business Review, and more.

In this solo episode, I dive deep into the idea that you’re not stuck—you’re afraid. I explore how fear, comfort, and unconscious loyalty to old stories keep us from stepping into our full potential. I read my viral Substack article aloud and riff on why real growth feels risky, how we sacrifice truth for belonging, and what it really means to live in integrity with your values. This is a call to stop fixing yourself and start becoming—because your freedom lives in choosing you.

In this solo episode, I dive into the messy magic of self-discovery and what it really means to show up as your full, authentic self—even if that means not everyone likes you. We talk nervous systems, emotional regulation, and why those “activated” moments are actually gold for growth. I break down the power of choosing relationships that choose you back and why chasing the unavailable just isn’t it. You’ll hear why your body might be your biggest spiritual guide, and how embracing all of you—yes, even the shadowy bits—can lead to deeper connection, bigger love, and a life that feels wildly aligned.
