Once bedbound with chronic pain and told she'd be disabled for life, Samphire Hayes transformed her health not through surgery, but by embracing natural, ancestral practices—like ground sitting, mindfulness, and movement. 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.

Samphire Hayes is a psychotherapist and natural lifestyle coach who overcame over a decade of chronic pain and limited mobility—at times requiring a mobility scooter—to now go on to complete marathons and live an active, vibrant life. Her personal healing journey sparked a deep commitment to holistic health, emphasizing the importance of addressing root causes rather than symptoms, and recognizing the body as an interconnected system. Through practices such as natural movement, ground sitting, mindfulness, nature immersion, and whole-food nutrition, Sam reconnected with the wisdom of human biology and the healing power of nature. Today, she leads The Holistic Pain Clinic, where she supports clients with chronic pain using integrative, nature-based strategies that empower physical, mental, and emotional recovery, with a mission to inspire resilience, hope, and lasting well-being.

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.
