    Ep. 2: When Words Aren’t Enough: Healing Through Music with Mack Bailey of Music Therapy Retreats
    2026/09/21
    Some experiences are difficult to explain. Sometimes, finding the words is part of the work. In Episode 2, I sat down with Mack Bailey, founder of Music Therapy Retreats, for a conversation about music, service, trauma, and what it can look like to find a way forward. Mack shares the work he and his team are doing through music, therapeutic songwriting, and connection to create a space for veterans to process their experiences and tell their stories. We talk about what people carry with them after service, the transition into what comes next, and what happens when you finally have an outlet for something you may not have known how to put into words. We also dive into how Music Therapy Retreats came to be, the impact Mack has seen through this work, and why creating spaces for veterans to connect, be heard, and share their experiences matters. This conversation is about more than music. It’s about the stories we carry, the people willing to listen, and finding different ways to work through what comes next.

    Ep 1.: Faith Over Statistics: Marine Corps Captain and Team USA Athlete Riley Tejcek on Defying the Odds
    2026/08/19
    Riley Gruppo sits down with Riley Tejcek, an active duty Marine Corps Captain, former Team USA athlete, and national pageant competitor, to talk about the one constant that’s carried her through every impossible odd: faith. They dig into how she kept going when the statistics said she shouldn’t, how she tuned out what other people expected of her, and how faith became the foundation under everything she’s built, from the Marine Corps to Team USA to the pageant stage. This is a conversation about what it actually takes to become the exception, not the statistic.

    Welcome to The Riley Gruppo Show, presented by The Standard. In this introduction episode, Riley opens up about why she finally hit record and what you can expect every time a new episode drops. Each week, she's tackling faith, fitness, health, business, and entrepreneurship: sharing what she's lived through herself, and bringing on guests to speak to what she hasn't. At the center of it all is one message she'll keep coming back to, your past doesn't define you, and neither does what anyone else says you're supposed to be. What defines you is the standard you hold for your future and refuse to negotiate on. This episode sets the foundation for everything to come.
