Eckhart Tolle and Tony Robbins discuss the importance of being AND doing — the two essential polarities in spiritual life on your path to find deeper meaning and purpose. Eckhart Tolle is widely recognized as one of the most inspiring and visionary spiritual teachers in the world today. Eckhart Tolle's TWO international bestsellers —The Power of Now and A New Earth —have been translated into 52 languages. Tolle has introduced millions of humans around the globe to the joy and freedom of living life in the present moment. The New York Times describes him as "the most popular spiritual author in the United States," and Watkins Review named him "the most spiritually influential person in the world." Tolle's profound yet simple teachings and benevolent essence (not to mention sweater vests) volunteer friendly encouragement to a state of inner peace in daily life. With teachings that focus on form identity vs. essence identity, the power of our present moment awareness, deep sensory perception, a pursuit of expanding consciousness, and the transcendence of the human stream of constant subconscious thoughts, Eckhart Tolle calls to all those who long to wake up. This transcendence of mind and vibrant mental health could be the essential next step in all human evolution. We invite you to sit in the theatre of TONY AND SAGE ROBBINS | HAPPINESS CONFERENCE presented to their Platinum Partners in Sedona, Arizona.

What would happen if you settled into a clarity of mind without problems or anxious thoughts? Listen in and life may never be the same again.

Right there, in front of thousands of people. Listen to the full intervention and hear what happens next — a powerful reminder that love isn't only something we feel.

Steve Young won three Super Bowls. Then he built one of private equity's most distinctive firms on a completely different philosophy: partnership over transaction. In this episode of The Holy Grail of Investing, Tony Robbins and Christopher Zook sit down with Steve Young, Pro Football Hall of Famer and Co-Founder of HGGC, for a conversation on championship leadership, partnership investing, and the philosophy that connects winning on the field to winning in business. They discuss:
We all have a story about who we are and why our life has unfolded the way it has. But what happens when that story becomes the very thing holding us back? In this powerful live intervention from the 2024 Date With Destiny event, Tony Robbins works with a woman whose painful childhood experiences shaped the way she saw herself, her relationships, and her future. As the conversation unfolds, Tony reveals how unresolved pain can quietly become part of our identity and why true freedom begins when we stop letting our past define what's possible.

In honor of Mother's Day, we invite you into this deeply heartfelt conversation between Byron Katie and Sage Robbins — a moving exploration of motherhood, presence, healing, and the complicated, beautiful love shared between mothers and daughters. Introduced by Tony Robbins, this episode is more than a conversation — it is a living experience of "The Work," Byron Katie's transformative method of self-inquiry that has helped millions of people find freedom from anxiety, grief, fear, stress, and emotional suffering. After spending nearly, a decade trapped in severe depression and despair, Byron Katie experienced a life-changing awakening in 1986 that completely transformed the way she understood suffering. From that experience came "The Work," four simple yet profound questions designed to help people question the stressful thoughts that keep them stuck. In this deeply personal episode, Sage vulnerably shares how discovering Byron Katie's work transformed her own life during a painful season marked by repeated miscarriages, fertility struggles, grief, and being told she had less than a one-in-a-million chance of ever becoming a mother. But at the emotional center of this conversation is Sage's relationship with her mother, who is currently living with dementia. Rather than simply discussing "The Work," Byron gently guides Sage through a real-time inquiry surrounding an emotional experience with her mother — unpacking fear, sadness, guilt, projections, and the pain so many people experience while caring for aging parents or witnessing someone they love slowly change. What unfolds is raw, heartbreaking, beautiful, and ultimately freeing. As Byron guides Sage through the process, pain begins to give way to presence, clarity, grace, and even joy — revealing how much love and connection can be missed when we become trapped inside fearful thoughts.
