You Gotta Go Backwards To Go Forward (2170)

In today’s episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros break down why true progress often comes with short-term sacrifices, whether it’s gaining weight to build muscle, taking on debt to create wealth, or accepting tough feedback from a coach. Through real stories and raw honesty, they reveal why discipline and accountability matter more than “just knowing what to do.” If you’re ready to reframe setbacks as stepping stones, this conversation will give you the clarity and push you need.Learn more about:📅Next Level University Monthly Meetup #45: “How to Design Your Life & Environment for Success” - https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/XAKkZd2DSw6G3NMlxL67vA#/registration 👥Join our Facebook community “Next Level Nation” - https://www.facebook.com/groups/459320958216700Free 30-minute Business Breakthrough Session with Alan -https://calendly.com/alanlazaros/30-minute-free-breakthrough-session?month=2025-04Free 30-Minute Podcast Breakthrough Session with Kevin -https://calendly.com/kevinpalmieri/free-30-minute-podcast-breakthrough-session-with-kevin_____________________NLU is not just a podcast; it’s a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.
