You’re Screwed If You Think Like This… (2083)

In this honest and energizing episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge the comforting idea that you're “exactly where you're meant to be.” They explore how this mindset can quietly sabotage progress, and why taking full ownership is the key to real, lasting change. With personal stories, powerful analogies, and a verse from Eminem that hits hard, this episode is a wake-up call to stop hoping and start building.
