Esther Perel Reveals the Secret to Lasting Love & Passion

Hi. Thanks for listening to the Tony Robbins podcast. This is just a quick note about this episode in case you'd rather watch and see the video of this conversation. That's found at youtube.com tony robbins live. You'd like to listen? You're in the right place. Okay. Here's Toni. Some of you, when you say I want more passion, it's not what you're gonna do just in the bedroom. It's who you're going to be with each other. You're gonna find, some of you, that when you are, even at Platinum Retreat or at your businesses or with your friends, that you are charming, that you are attentive, that you are focused, that you are well dressed, that you are funny. And then ask yourself each time, who goes home to your partner or the partners that you've been with? Is that the person who goes home, or is the one who goes home the leftovers? It's time now to give you some new inputs, some additional distinctions and insights that can help you make better decisions. So tonight, we're gonna have two speakers that are extraordinary, and the first speaker is a dear friend of Sage and mine. Her name is Esther Perel, and we're fans in the audience. We're fans as well. I don't know how many years it's been. My guess is fourteen, fifteen years that we've worked together. Esther is really recognized, I think, as one of the world's most insightful thinkers about couples and what really drives the relationship, sexuality, and the paradoxes really of marriage in the modern world. You know, how do you really her first book was Mating in Captivity, which is really this whole concept of how do you want what you already have. Usually desire comes from something you don't have. So in the modern world when you have it, how do you do that? And then she's just coming out with a book in a few days is the only reason she's not here in person because she has to be on a book tour, but we're grateful she's willing to join us by Skype and still do her session with us. And her new book is called, The State of Affairs, Rethinking Infidelity and really looking at it in a world where, you know, infidelity in a world where everything is known. Right? I mean, we're living in a world where you can find out everything to it. There's a digital footprint to everything and really understanding the dynamics of what's going behind that for people. Why do the affairs occur? Can they be recovered from? Can you heal them? And so she's gonna do a beautiful workshop for us tonight. She'll teach us a bit and then she's gonna put us through some exercises to really help us see if we can uncover and and discover some new insights. So this is a woman that I have unbelievable respect and love for. Would you please stand even …
