If You Want To Be The Most Next Level (2317)

from Next Level University · host Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros

Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge the quiet assumptions that stall progress long before people notice. This episode questions how time, effort, and standards are treated casually, even by those who say they want more. Grounded in years of execution, coaching, and building Next Level University consistently, they reflect on what changes when goals stop being abstract and start demanding structure, pressure, and follow-through.The conversation is direct, practical, and unsentimental. This is not motivation. It is clarity around the real cost of serious growth. Listen with honesty. Then decide if your standards match the life you say you want._______________________Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.
