#74 Stop Saving Your Kids From Failure | Trystan Trenberth

You think rescuing your kids is love? Trystan Trenberth spent years thinking the same thing, until a therapist friend's single question forced him to see that his daughters didn't want him to solve their problems. They wanted to be heard. Trystan unpacks why failure isn't off the road to success but is the road, and how that same contrast principle reshaped his approach to fatherhood, fitness, and the overfunded whole life insurance strategy he uses to build wealth today.
