Financial Insights w/ Billionaire Jeffrey Gundlach | Discussing inflation, taxes & asset allocation

Have you ever loved someone deeply… but still felt like you were drifting apart? At Tony and Sage Robbins' 2023 Platinum Partners Relationship Event in Maui, Jacquie and Fabio stepped forward after nearly 10 years together, a shared daughter, and a relationship on the edge of collapse. Jacquie felt disconnected and afraid of losing the future she wanted. Fabio felt trapped in what Tony calls "the tunnel", the place where a man feels like he's failing in every area of life. Tony reveals a truth many couples never understand; when fear takes over, love doesn't disappear, it gets buried beneath pain, past experiences, and self-judgment. Through a raw and emotional intervention, Tony and Sage help them see the deeper truth behind their struggle and rediscover the love that brought them together. Because the strongest relationships aren't the ones without problems… they're the ones where two people choose to fight for each other through the tunnel. This isn't just a relationship intervention. It's a lesson in emotional courage, devotion, and what it means to truly love another human being. Watch the moment their story changes forever.

In this powerful Business Mastery conversation, Tony Robbins sits down with Anastasia Soare — founder of Anastasia Beverly Hills — to break down what it really takes to build a billion-dollar brand from nothing. Anastasia escaped Communist Romania in 1989 with no money, no English, and a three-year-old daughter. She arrived in Los Angeles at 31, started her business at 40, and went on to build Anastasia Beverly Hills into a $3 billion global company while creating an entirely new category in the beauty industry.  In Part 2 of this conversation, Tony and Anastasia go deeper into the mindset behind that success — the 12 years she spent traveling to Nordstrom stores every weekend to prove her concept, the Golden Ratio technique that revolutionized eyebrow shaping, and the relentless commitment to quality that allowed her brand to stand out in a crowded market.  They also discuss how to survive market shifts, adapt during crises like COVID, compete when others copy your success, and why the problems you face as an entrepreneur are often proof that you're growing.  The episode concludes with a powerful live Q&A where Tony is joined by both Anastasia and Spartan founder Joe De Sena. Together they answer raw questions about grit, leadership, raising resilient children, and staying hungry even after you've achieved success.  This isn't just a beauty story. It's an immigrant story. It's a story about starting late — and refusing to quit. As Anastasia says: "If you believe in your product, don't you ever give up."  If you've ever thought, it's too late to build something extraordinary — this conversation will change your mind.

In Part 1 of this Business Mastery 2026 conversation, Tony Robbins sits down with Joe De Sena, Founder & CEO of Spartan, the global endurance brand that's pushed millions of people to test their limits across 40+ countries, to unpack the mindset, resilience, and decision-making required to build a global business from the ground up.

Together, Tony and Joe explore why most people quit before they ever begin, how to iterate your offer until the market responds, and why mission-driven leadership outperforms motivation when the pressure is on.  This is a must-watch for entrepreneurs, founders, and leaders — and for anyone who wants to build something meaningful without waiting for ideal conditions! *Want to experience transformational growth for your own business? Join Business Mastery, happening virtually and in person from August 12–16, 2026, to learn directly from Tony Robbins and world-class faculty.  *Secure your spot to Business Mastery here: https://tonyr.co/4cB5IkU
