| 0:00.0 | Hi guys, it's Tony Robbins. You're listening to Habits and Hustle. Crush it. |
| 0:10.0 | All right. Okay, we're going to talk about something. We just changed topics of what we're going to talk about because it was happening in real time, which is working and being a mom, working and being a parent that is a present parent. That's what I |
| 0:24.2 | want to talk about. Wait, this hat looks so cute on you, by the way. Thanks. I just had to say that. |
| 0:27.8 | You look great. I feel like because I haven't seen your face all day. This is wonderful. |
| 0:32.8 | This is great. Thank you. The only reason why we're talking about this one today is because, |
| 0:38.9 | so let me just give you a backstory. Seanana comes over and she's like, let's, we've got to like do some solos and I'm like, yeah, let's do it. Let's do it in my kitchen. And she's like, don't do it in the kitchen. We can't do in the kitchen because if we do in the kitchen, the kids are going to come home. We're going to have to do this. We're going to have to do that. It's going to take five hours to do like three, 10 minute episodes. |
| 0:55.5 | And I'm like giving her a hard time. |
| 0:57.4 | I'm like, don't be ridiculous. It'll take like no time. We're going to knock it out. We fine. And this went on for a bit. And lo and behold, what happens? My kids come home from school. And it is like becomes may becomes mayhem mom I want to watch the iPad |

| 1:39.4 | then balance that out with when I'm going to have to do with my kids for their schedule. |

| 1:54.0 | it is, this is not an easy job. If you want to be a good parent and have a thriving career, |
| 2:00.0 | it is hard. That is all I'm going to say. This is not really for it, for, I'm not going to like go and, and philosophize all the other |
| 2:02.8 | stuff, but I just want to say for people who are listening, if you are somebody who is a working |
| 2:07.8 | parent, God bless you, it is not easy. I am with you. It is hard. And I think people who don't |
