0:00.0	Hello and welcome to another episode of the Mark Groves podcast.
0:11.7	You know, the more I dive into the work of understanding relationships,
0:16.1	communication, how do we get better, how do we change our lives, how do we change how we show up,
0:20.6	how do we heal? Oh How do we change our lives? How do we change how we show up? How do we heal? Oh man,
0:23.1	the more I really continue to believe that so much of it is about the nervous system and
0:29.6	understanding our biology and removing our unstuckness. I'll give you an example. Like we can know
0:35.4	that we truly want great love. We can know that we truly want great love.
0:40.8	We can know that we truly want to create a beautiful relationship.

1:15.5	We often don't even know, especially when we were young if we were just used to chaos
1:19.6	and dysregulation, we don't even know that we're dysregulated.
1:23.4	If that's our normal, then when we become regulated, we're like, what the heck? It's so calm and
1:28.9	peaceful. So I'm so excited that today I get to have a conversation with one of the best in the
1:34.3	game at understanding our nervous systems and how to heal it. Oh my gosh. You know, like, I often
1:40.7	think that the pathway isn't through the mind or words.
1:46.0	Like, it's obviously a contributing factor and it helps to understand logically what we're going through.
