In this special VIDEO episode of The Tony Robbins Podcast, you’ll hear from Tony Robbins, his wife Sage Robbins, and podcast host Mary B., as they reflect on the significance of Father’s Day with their new baby and delve deep into the profound difference between being a father and being a dad.
As Tony notes, Fatherhood holds immense importance in society, as it represents one of the most significant roles a person can undertake. While some individuals may have faced challenges in their relationships with their own fathers, others have been fortunate to experience deep and loving connections. Tony takes this opportunity to extend his love and support to all fathers of all kinds, acknowledging the vital role that they play in helping their children grow and thrive, while also touching upon his own personal family history and unique upbringing with multiple fathers. They also get into the impersonal, archetypal father figure and the gifts that masculine energy brings to our lives.
In this heartfelt conversation, Tony, Sage and Mary B. shed light on the complexity and diversity of father-child relationships, recognizing that each person may have their own unique perspective on what it truly means to be a father. They also emphasize the transformative influence fathers can have on their children’s lives — and anyone they choose to coach, care for, and mentor — illustrating the impact a warm, loving father figure. Such fathers provide not only material and emotional support to families but also offer unconditional love, guidance, wisdom, and protection throughout the various stages of a child’s life.
Please enjoy this tribute to fathers everywhere!

Everything about Rony Tobbins is fake. Fake smile, fake laughter. "Unleash the wallet within" to make false friend Rony even richer.
Tony and Sage you are such an inspiration as a couple. I have been married for 33yrs to a wonderful man who is a loving Father and Dad to our now adult children, and still you inspire me to be even better as a wife and a parent.
Wonderful podcast. May you continue to be blessed abundantly, and my sacred blessings to your baby girl too. Love you both❤️💫🤲🙏🥰🙌
tony , can u help me, i need, $2000, for my difficult life
I can totally relate to your story. I also had 4 fathers, I recently just found my biological father at the age 50. its been a very traumatic and hard to wrap my mind around. I didn't have a relationship with my mother due to her reckless behavior to at a very young age. my grandmother was a huge presence in my life. she put her life on hold to make sure I had a chance. my childhood was traumatic probably not as most, but to me its very been very devastating. I have raised all three of my children and they have and gave me purpose to be a good mother and Nanna. I wish you a wonderful and positive life and may you continue to be a positive role model to the entire world, you are sincerely genuine human being. continue to change the world.
The wisest thing every individual should think off, is creating multiple streams of income rather depending on the government to create job opportunities expecially now the country is going through economical crisis
Tony have the best smile i ever seen on internet
Tony, be blessed and guided by One Lord – One Father. Thank you. ❤ 🙏
A father understands one things. The future of this planet falls on the strength and wisdom he passes on to his sons, and the love and affection he lavishes to his daughters. It is THE most important task on this planet. That's why shit is so fucked up today. Cause most of us were raised by government dependent and controlled femenist baby mamas and bitter divorcees.
Happy Father's day Tony! ❤
I was touched in many ways! Thank you!!!❤
Tony you came into my life when I was a broken single mom and your audios made a huge impact on my life – which was to be the best human being of a mom that I could be for my young son 15 yrs ago
I’ve learnt to forgive the father of my son as the intention is to foster a healthy relationship for all .
Thank you for your valuable lessons over the years ❤
