The Mark Groves Podcast
Human relationships are at a crossroads and in this thought-provoking conversation with speaker and author Teal Swan we explore why. Teal unveils how modern dynamics, like the rise of narcissism and the constant influx of social media stimuli, are disrupting our ability to connect with others — and even with ourselves. She dives into the roots of relational dysfunction, tying them to unresolved childhood traumas and societal expectations that stifle authenticity. Offering a fresh perspective on healing, Teal introduces the Completion Process, a method designed to confront suppressed emotions and rebuild connections from a place of true authenticity. If you’re ready to examine the deeper forces shaping your relationships and discover tools for transformative growth, this is an episode you won’t want to miss. Teal Swan is a New Thought Leader and a Bestselling Author who is an expert in human development and relationships, with a following of over 1M on all social media platforms. She has over a decade of experience working with people of all walks of life with a mission to reduce human suffering. Today, she's also become an International Speaker, having facilitated retreats and life changing workshops in large venues worldwide. Teal was ranked 15th on The Watkins Most Spiritually Influential Living People in 2023. —Teal’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tealswanofficial/ —Teal’s Website: https://tealswan.com/ —Teal’s Ancestral Healing Course: http://www.markgroves.com/tealswan // Head here to check out the Ancestral Healing Course: https://offers.tealswan.com/ancestral-healing-a and use this link to save $200 when you purchase: http://www.markgroves.com/tealswan —Teal’s Books: https://tealswan.com/books/ —Teal’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TealSwanOfficial —Teal’s Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tealswanofficial Resources: —Ready to transform your relationships?

#429: Community Member Coaching Sessions: The Path to Secure Attachment

In this transformative coaching session with Create The Love CommunityTM member Kyla Bouvier, Kyla candidly explores her journey of understanding attachment styles and how they influence her relationships, parenting, and professional aspirations. Together, we unpack her patterns of fearful-avoidant and anxious attachment, shaped by childhood dynamics and past relationships, and discuss how they manifest in self-expression and connection. As Kyla shares her challenges in blending her spiritual passions, like astrology, into her wellness business and corporate environment, we dive into overcoming shame and societal conditioning to step into authenticity. This heartfelt dialogue underscores the power of community, self-awareness, and bold action in breaking free from fear-based patterns and fostering secure attachments.
