#1114 - Are You Afraid Of Your Own Greatness? - Live Podcast

Next Level University

10/04/22 • 28 min

The Jonah Complex – the fear of success that prevents self-actualization or the realization of one’s potential. In this week’s live podcast, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros deeply dive into the concept of fearing one’s greatness and why people have it. Everyone has a voice inside them that tells them they can be someone great. However, most of us would rather join the crowd, abide by social norms, and lose our individualities than dare to become the odd ones out.

#1584 - Nobody Knows What The Hell They're Doing

Next Level University

01/17/24 • 25 min

Have you ever felt like you're just winging it in life? Navigating through life can often feel like an improvisational act, especially when faced with the inevitable uncertainty of personal and professional growth. In this episode, Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros delve into the paradoxical experience of figuring it out while simultaneously becoming experts in their respective fields. It’s an invitation to laugh at life's uncertainties and embrace the chaos of personal growth. It's a candid discussion about finding your path without a map, balancing authenticity with the pursuit of self-improvement, and, ultimately, the art of winging it through life and learning.

#1578 - Do You Actually “Just Trust People Too Much”?

Next Level University

01/11/24 • 29 min

In this episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros focused on a critical component of human interaction—trust. The conversation will take listeners to understand the delicate balance between trusting too much and not trusting enough. This balance, often called the trust equilibrium, is essential in personal and professional relationships. Navigating the emotional landscape of trust is indeed a tightrope walk. Still, with the right balance, we can stride confidently, expanding our trust circles and embracing the relationships that shape our lives.

#552 - There Is No Such Thing As Multitasking

Next Level University

02/15/21 • 19 min

“You can only really optimize for one thing at a time.”
Do you think you can multitask? Or is multitasking a “skill” that you wish you have?
In today’s episode, we are going to burst your bubbles a little bit only because we want you to realize your potentials in the most efficient way. For anyone who wants to multitask because they want a variety of experiences, know that if you become really good at one thing, the experiences will come along the way. If you want to become the best version of yourself, you can’t be a “jack of trades, master of none.”

#554 - Are You Winning More Than You Think?

Next Level University

02/17/21 • 23 min

“When you have a really good life, you don’t have to show it off.”
If you compare yourself to what you see on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and other social media platform, you are going to feel that you are losing. Remember that these posts are curated or carefully selected to show something that might not even a reality.
If you feel like you’re not successful because of what the people around you say, take the time to do some introspection. You might not have given them the time to understand and listen to you. At the end of the day, if you love what you do and you’re making progress towards your long-term goals, then you are winning more than you think.

#549 - How To Overcome Imposter Syndrome

Next Level University

02/10/21 • 20 min

We’re certain that at some point in your career or life you’ve experienced imposter syndrome. So today we wanted to talk about why this is to be expected and what to do about it.
You have to remember that everyone, even an expert, was once a beginner and experienced feeling like an imposter. We believe that this is normal and you just don’t get to see how others feel so you automatically assume that they don’t. It’s also important to understand that this feeling is part of the experience, just push through and soon you’ll start to build the confidence to shrug the feeling off.
