    508 - The #1 Thing Your Kids Need More Than Money

    Parents think the best gift they can give their kids is money. But the truth? Money alone isn’t enough. In this powerful episode of the Secret to Success Podcast, ET, CJ, Karl & TJ unpack the story of Vontrell — a star athlete whose NFL dream collapsed after repeated injuries. Lost and struggling, he fell into security jobs and uncertainty… until Marlon & Camille stepped in. Instead of letting him sink, they gave him something far greater than money: A car to drive. A place to live. His basic expenses covered. In other words, they gave him a margin of error — room to fail, recover, and chase his next dream. That margin led to marriage, a new home, and eventually a million-dollar contract. Here’s what you’ll learn in Part 1: - Why your kids need stability more than a paycheck - How to create room for failure without destroying their future - Why marriages and money collapse when there’s no foundation - The hidden sacrifices that build true legacy - ET’s challenge: how do you stay hungry when you’re already full? This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation that every parent, leader, and dreamer needs to hear. 👉 Subscribe now for weekly episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@S2SPodcastChannel?sub_confirmation=1 👉 Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/secret-to-success-podcast/id1061833196 👉 Join our Patreon family for exclusive content: https://www.patreon.com/c/S2SPodcast120
