Fitness Is Self-Love (2020)

In this powerful Freestyle Friday episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros unpack what self-love really means, especially when you're not where you want to be. Through personal stories about fitness, identity, and tough feedback, they discuss how real self-respect comes from aligning your actions with your values. Tune in to feel seen, encouraged, and reminded that growth starts with telling yourself the truth.Learn more about:Next Level Live 2025 - https://www.nextleveluniverse.com/next-level-live/Saturday, April 5th, 2024 (10:00 am to 4:00 pm EST)Next Level Group Coaching - https://www.nextleveluniverse.com/group-coaching/Group 18 - Our first call kicks off on Tuesday, April 15, 2025, at 5 PM EST, and the group runs for three transformative months.
