In this episode, Dr. Robert Glover—author of No More Mr. Nice Guy—joins Mark Groves to dismantle the "Nice Guy" syndrome and expose how covert contracts, people-pleasing, and hidden agendas sabotage intimacy and personal power. Together, they dive deep into the emotional conditioning that keeps men disconnected from their truth and trapped in performative masculinity. Dr. Glover shares unapologetic wisdom on boundaries, self-ownership, and how to reclaim your masculinity without losing your heart. Whether you're a recovering Nice Guy or love one, this episode is a roadmap to authenticity, freedom, and truly connected relationships.
Dr. Robert Glover is a therapist, mentor, and author focusing on men’s relationships, health, success, and sexuality. With over 40 years of professional experience, he has authored four books, including the groundbreaking, No More Mr. Nice Guy. Dr. Glover is the founder of Integration Nation, an international community for men.
