REWIND EPISODE #02

Mark Groves, Mr @createthelove.

I was thrilled to have Mark on the show to bring the piece that first connected us to this very topic of the Everyday Legend - a piece he wrote about the 'Evolved Man', challenging women who say they want this man if they're ready for him.

In the show, we explore Mark's story and what he does. We then start talking about relationship dynamics, how our wounding - our shit - plays out, and with that, we explore codependency.

Mark has a great depth of knowledge in this topic, as well as some practical personal experience (me, too).

Mark is someone whose content and wisdom I trust wholeheartedly.

As a human connection specialist and a great human being, Mark brings some brilliant insight and always delivers light and engaging content.

Mike's main lessons/takeaways:

Mark always has so much insight into relationships, and what I really liked about this conversation was where he dives into how our wounding - the shit we went through that created most of our beliefs about ourselves and our behaviours in relationships - ends up becoming an intense driver for sexual attraction often getting us deep into a place we don't want to be in.

It's a counter-intuitive piece that Mark brings so much sense to.

This often is the base for codependency, which Mark breaks down nicely in this episode.

"Say, for example, you're with someone that is hot and cold. The person hits you up at 1 am - a good sign you're a booty call. You hook up, and the arousal and sexual connection treat the pain of the abandonment and ejection. So we end up in these cycles, and of course, that's the best sex, right? Of course you do, you have a couple of wounds banging up against each other."
