Alan Lazaros At age 2, my birth father passed away in a car accident. At age 26, after getting into a nearly fatal car accident myself, I questioned everything… I was already very successful from the outside looking in, but filled with pain, regret, and abandonment challenges, I searched for answers and finally found what I was really missing all this time, Personal Development. Today I’m grateful to lead a global team of 18 individuals as the Founder and CEO of Next Level University, a Global Top 100 Podcast focused on helping others reach their own unique potential in Health, Wealth, and Love. With well over 2,100 episodes and more than one million listens in 180+ countries, I’ve been doing this deeply meaningful work for more than a decade, and after accumulating more than 10,000 hours of Coaching, Training, and Podcasting with all walks of life, I believe in a heart-driven but no BS approach to achieving both external success AND internal fulfillment. Thank you again for this opportunity. I believe we’re all far more capable than we realize when given the right guidance, and I’m honored to help you and your listeners reach their own unique Next Level of Success!
