Summary

Are today’s kids being set up for success, or are we making them too "soft" to handle real challenges? In a world full of participation trophies, helicopter parenting, and an overprotective culture, the question arises: are we failing to prepare the next generation to face adversity? In this episode, I sit down with Lee Trink to discuss whether today’s parenting methods are doing more harm than good. We dive into why resilience is critical for success and how kids might be missing out on crucial life skills. Are we over-sheltering them, and what can we do to fix it? You won’t want to miss this eye-opening conversation. Lee Trink, former CEO of FaZe Clan, is a Gen Z expert and leader who has worked extensively with young talent, helping them succeed in high-pressure environments. With his experience, he brings valuable insights on how we can teach kids to be resilient in a world that's becoming increasingly soft.

0:00.0	Hi, guys. It's Tony Robbins. You're listening to Habits and Hustle. Crush it.
0:08.0	Before we dive into today's episode, I first want to thank our sponsor, Therasage. Their
0:13.6	trite panel has become my favorite biohacking thing for healing my body. It's a portable red light panel that I simply cannot live
0:23.1	without. I literally bring it with me everywhere I go. And I personally use their red light therapy
0:28.7	to help reduce inflammations and places in my body where honestly I have pain. You can use it
0:35.0	on a sore back, stomach cramps, shoulder, ankle. Red light therapy
0:39.9	is my go-to. Plus, it also has amazing anti-aging benefits, including reducing signs of fine lines
0:46.9	and wrinkles on your face, which I also use it for. I personally use Therisage trilight everywhere at all the time. It's small, it's affordable,
0:58.4	it's portable, and it's really effective. Head over to Therisage.com right now and use code
1:06.1	be bold for 15% off. This code will work sitewide.
1:12.7	Again, head over to Therasage, T-H-E-R-A-S-A-G-E.com, and use code B-Bold for 15% off any of their products.
1:31.0	Welcome to this solo duo episode that we're doing today with my friend Lee Trink.
1:37.8	Hi.
1:38.2	Hello, Lee.
1:38.9	Hello, Lee.
1:39.8	Thanks for having me.
1:41.0	You're welcome.
1:41.8	Lee teasing me.
1:42.5	Thanks for inviting me to your solo. You're welcome. He keeps on teasing me because he said it's not a solo. I'm sitting here. I'm sitting here. What do I know? I know. But like I said in an earlier episode that it's more to have someone to kind of debate with and go back and forth, and we used to call them solo.
2:02.0	So you're right.
2:02.8	Just thank you for joining me on this short-er episode.
2:06.2	My pleasure.
