Love and the Modern Family

This intimate episode of The Tony Robbins Podcast was recorded at
home in February of 2023 with Tony Robbins, his wife, Sage
Robbins, and Mary B., friend and surrogate of their child. Listen
as they discuss unconditional love and the modern family.


Tony begins with an introduction on our evolutionary advantage
and the most powerful force on earth: LOVE. He riffs on why
people become jaded and pessimistic after the loss of love, pain,
past references, and cultural conditioning and implores the
audience to keep their hearts open to the depths of the human
heart we all crave. 


Tony and Sage share “the explosion of love” that has come through
their 23 years of marriage and starting a family together.


This extended conversation covers topics including: expectations
of intimate relationships, media messages, parenting, prince and
princess romantic ideals, oneness, mindfulness, modern love
constellations and chosen family configurations, sobriety, human
behavior, couples communication, emotional fitness, the trap of
blame and judgement, the importance of self-love, and more.


This episode serves for all listening to be reminded that “love
defies the odds.” It invites us all to offer the love that is our
highest and truest human essence to our beloved, our parents,
friends, children, brothers, sisters, co-workers, and
beyond.  Let’s love this world up.  Enjoy!
