Tony Robbins and Dostoevsky

Life coaching is not a new phenomenon. Tony Robbins is one of the most prominent today, but how does he compare with the Elder monk Zosima from Dostoevsky's masterpiece The Brothers Karamazov? With subtitles.

Note that Dawn ended up receiving an insane amount of support besides her talk with Tony. She received over 100k USD in donations, and Tony’s wife also coached her personally. But we also see many others featured in the documentary where Tony seems to have improved their life by his coaching alone. The cellphone lady is one example where the advice seems to be so-so, and that is at least shown in the documentary, where we are told they ended up going back together.
