Mark A Turnipseed is an author, wellness entrepreneur, and transformational coach whose work bridges mental health, spirituality, and personal empowerment. He is the founder of Halo42, a wellness brand recognized for merging aromatherapy, skincare, and lifestyle practices into a holistic approach to beauty and well-being, and the creator of the Break Free Philosophy, a coaching and retreat program designed to help individuals release shame, heal trauma, and cultivate authentic self-expression.

​

Drawing from his own lived experience — including recovery from addiction, athletic achievement as an Ironman triathlete, and years of research into identity formation and spiritual integration — Mark has developed a reputation as a leading voice in self-actualization and embodied wellness. His work spans publishing, public speaking, and program development, where he equips audiences with tools for lasting transformation.

​

Mark’s upcoming projects include Empire of Self, a platform dedicated to helping individuals unite the fragmented parts of identity — mental wellness, spirituality, sexuality, and personal sovereignty — into a life of purpose, presence, and freedom. He has been featured in national media, including Oprah Daily, and is sought after for his ability to translate personal struggle into universal strategies for resilience, balance, and growth.
