About the Host
Mark Groves
Human Connection Specialist
After building a global audience of millions, writing books, and coaching thousands through breakups, breakthroughs, and everything in between, Mark experienced something that changed everything: a complete nervous system collapse. A psychotic break that forced him to ask the question that had been whispering for years: At what cost?
The cost was his presence. His clarity. His connection to himself.
The wake-up call wasn't subtle. It was a full system shutdown—the kind that makes you realize you've been optimizing for the wrong things. Building an audience while losing yourself. Teaching presence while living distracted. Preaching authenticity while being interrupted 200 times a day by a device you can't put down.
Mark's work has always been about helping people show up more fully in their relationships. Now, he's addressing the addiction that's making that nearly impossible: our smartphones.
The research is clear. Dopamine pathways hijacked. Creativity crushed. Attention fractured. Real connection replaced by endless scrolling. We're more digitally connected than ever—and lonelier than we've ever been.
Mark isn't asking you to go off-grid. He's asking you to come back to yourself. To reclaim your brain, your creativity, your ability to sit with someone you love without checking your phone. To remember what it feels like to be bored, to think deeply, to be present.
This is the work that almost cost him everything. Now, it's the work he's here to do.
