The Mark Groves Podcast

There is no peace for a man who has seen what he can become. That line stopped me in my tracks and it is what this whole episode is about. What does it mean to accept your gifts as sacred? What does it mean to stop delaying the life you know you are capable of and actually step into it? This is a solo episode and it is one of those ones I needed to record as much as you needed to hear it.

In this episode I am reading your letters and diving deep into tough questions from you about your relationships, love, and what you really want from life. To begin I touch on my current journey—how I am learning to let go of the future I thought I would have and give space to the new and unknown in my life. I then cover some challenging and common situations that you have written to me about: the ex that promises to change, the new partner that is still seeing their ex, the partner that works too much, and not feeling the same about marriage and kids as our partner. I so appreciate the opportunity to know what is on your heart.

To make the “right” decisions in love is challenging. Some of the most important questions we will ever ask ourselves live inside our relationships. Should I stay or go? Am I too much? Why do I keep losing myself? This is a Q&A episode and we go deep on all of it. Real questions, real answers, no fluff. If you have ever wondered whether love is enough, why you attract unavailable people, or how to ask for what you want without feeling needy... this one is for you.

#534: Hold On and Die or Let Go and Live - With Greg German

Some people hit rock bottom and crawl back to the same life. Greg German hit rock bottom on a plane runway surrounded by FBI agents and chose something different. This is one of the most extraordinary stories of coherence, surrender and transformation I have ever heard. We get into what it actually costs to spend a lifetime chasing enoughness, what it looks like to have your entire identity stripped away in public, and why sometimes the universe will not let you go back to the life that was slowly killing you. This one will stay with you

Greg German is the founder of AUTHA, a private community for remembrance of the unity that is our true nature.At the heart of AUTHA is a radical reimagining of the Garden of Eden: what if humanity's original story wasn't one of sin and separation, but an invitation into knowledge, sovereignty, and the remembrance of our own divine nature? What if the greatest illusion we've inherited is the belief that we were ever separate from Source, from one another, or from the power that is our birthright?

Greg's work invites people to question and release the inherited shame, conditioning, and illusions that obscure this truth, opening a path to greater freedom, connection, coherence.The result is the abundant, fulfilling, meaningful life you deserve.

The world is loud right now and most of us are drowning in it. This solo episode is a direct conversation about what it actually takes to come back to yourself when everything around you is competing for your attention, your nervous system, and your sanity. We get into why safety is the baseline of every relationship, why you don’t need to share your opinion about everything on social media, and why if you are full of sh*t, your life will reflect that back to you.

Most high achievers are not building from ambition. They are building from wounds. In this episode i’m joined by Mandy Balak  and she truly is the real deal. "She has built empires from grief, scaled companies from shame, and finally figured out the one thing that changes everything. We talk about what it actually costs to keep running on empty, why your business is always a mirror of your inner world, and what it looks like to finally stop chasing and start arriving. 

Mandy Balak is the author of Chasing Enough: The High Achiever's Guide to Sustainable Success. She built three companies to seven figures while getting her father out of a Colombian prison. She held everything together, got him out, and then realized she'd built a prison of her own. That reckoning became the Well-Resourced Method, which she now teaches to leaders across North America.

Mandy has founded three companies. She spent ten years growing a media company to more than 250,000 members before selling it. She is President of The Gathering, a leadership festival and 12,000+ member community, and hosts The Well podcast.

We're drowning in screens, and I think that's exactly why our relationships are struggling. Every unoccupied moment of our day has been filled with content and we've lost our capacity for boredom, which means we're losing our capacity for real intimacy. In this episode I talk about the burnout of building a business online, why I don't think a "healthy" relationship with social media is even possible, and what six months away from it taught me. 

I'm building something to help with this... and I'd love your input. Survey's linked below

Most people don't realize that their frustration with people who aren't available has a lot to do with their own unavailability. In this special episode I discuss 3 questions from my audience and how to handle their relational challenges. Why might we be holding on to or daydreaming about an ex? Why can't my partner fully commit or tell me they love me? How do I know the difference between settling and committing? These are important and complex questions that so many of us are struggling with. Tune in to learn more!
