In today's episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros break down why the traditional idea of work-life balance is holding so many people back from real self-improvement. They reveal how the wrong mental map can derail your decision-making, weaken your consistency, and limit your growth long before you realize it. Instead of chasing balance, you'll learn the performance-driven frame high achievers use to make progress across health, wealth, and love without burning out or drifting off course. This is a direct, practical look at personal development for people who want results, not clichés. Listen now, rethink your framework, and step into the version of yourself you've been avoiding._______________________Learn more about:The “Next Level Hope Foundation” creates meaningful experiences for kids growing up without a father figure and builds a positive, supportive community around them.To support this event, you can donate here: https://gofund.me/5c6abcf7fJoin our private Facebook community, “Next Level Nation,” to grow alongside people who are committed to improvement. - https://www.facebook.com/groups/459320958216700_______________________NLU is not just a podcast; it's a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.

Most C-suite executives resist group coaching. They think it's beneath them. That they need one-on-one attention. That the cool kids don't do groups. But here's what they're missing: The executives landing fastest aren't going it alone - they're in rooms with other sharp leaders who push them, connect them, and amplify their momentum. Group coaching isn't about splitting attention. It's about multiplying force. The hidden math of going solo One coach. One perspective. One set of connections. Versus: One coach + 10-15 C-suite peers from different industries + guest experts + cross-pollinated networks + collective negotiation intel + real-time market intelligence. That's not diluted support. That's exponential leverage. In this episode: Why the job market playbook from 10 years ago (or even last year) is obsolete The real reason networking doesn't work - and what to do instead How LinkedIn went from "nice to have" to non-negotiable visibility engine Why referrals make up less than 10% of applications but 40% of hires The hidden talent economy: roles created for people before they're ever posted What separates executives who land in 60 days from those still searching at month 9 The power of micro-networks (clusters) over massive, generic connections How to build your own digital power circle in 3 steps Who should NOT be in a group program (and why that matters) A real transformation Before: A 20-year healthcare executive. Over a decade at one company. LinkedIn follower count: under 1,000. No active presence. Outdated job search strategies. No idea how to navigate the new hiring landscape. Then: Joined Portfolio Rocket's group coaching program. Learned to build a voice on LinkedIn. Showed up authentically. Shared vulnerable stories (like iPhone rules for her daughter). Connected with peers across industries - education, design, marketing, advertising. After: 14,000+ LinkedIn followers. A viral post picked up by Angela Duckworth. Global reach. Podcast invitations. A negotiation expert from the cohort coached her through her package. Introductions to Oprah's network within 24 hours. And a career ecosystem that breathes, responds, and remembers. That's not luck. That's the compounding power of being in the room where it happens. Timestamps (0:00) - Intro (1:17) - Why Cece joined group coaching after 10+ years out of the job market (5:00) - The first piece of armor to drop: building a voice on LinkedIn (8:11) - Why job searching today is fundamentally different than even a year ago (10:50) - The hidden job market and roles created before posting (14:30) - Networking is dead. Clustering is alive. (16:40) - Times Square vs. the Sahara Desert: where do you want to be? (19:03) - How to tap into micro-networks and digital power circles (21:28) - The exponential effect: classmates become colleagues, friends, connectors (22:00) - The intangibles: mindset, structure, guardrails, and optimism (25:08) - Who should NOT be in a group program (26:30) - October: 5 people landed. November: still counting. The takeaway Your next role isn't waiting in a job posting. It's being shaped in a conversation you're not part of yet - with people who don't know your name. Unless you're in the room where it happens. Group coaching isn't a compromise. It's a catalyst. Stop going solo. Start going exponential.

In this episode, Christina shares a hilarious moment when her watch strap snapped and clattered to the floor — the kind of everyday chaos every woman knows too well. But the real twist? What happened next: a packed jewelry store, lineups, and people buying high-ticket items like the economy didn't get the memo.Brittany jumps in with her signature perspective, highlighting how these tiny everyday moments tell bigger stories about people, spending habits, and the weird contradictions of “the economy.” Is it struggling? Thriving? Or just… confusing?From watch fails to unexpected behavioral insights, this convo reminds us that the most ordinary moments are often the most revealing — and the most entertaining.About Brittany and Christina:Meet Brittany and Christina, your dynamic podcast hosts who bring their unique blend of expertise, passion, and life experience to every conversation.Brittany, affectionately known as Britt, mom, mommy, bruh, and Queen, lives in Vancouver with her husband and their three fantastic kids (tweens and teens, hence the playful nicknames).

Key Takeaways:Understanding how thoughts and feelings contribute to decision-making is key to influential leadership. Influential leadership creates sustainable workforces with less turnover and more productivity.The first step towards becoming an influential leader is to go inward. Be willing to understand how the thoughts, beliefs, and experiences that you had when you were young impact the decisions that you make today.Guilt is when we feel bad for what we do, and shame is when we feel bad about who we are. Most things that upset us originate from deeply rooted feelings of guilt and shame. When navigating conflicts of others or your own, pay attention to what's making you and others feel uncomfortable.An influential leader's job is to create more good leaders. When you practice influential leadership, not only are you creating a more influential and conscious leadership for yourself, but you're also teaching others how their thoughts and feelings contribute to their everyday decision-making, which helps them resolve things internally. “Every minute we spend in clean-up conversations that could have been avoided with better communication and leadership - we're moving away from the work we were called to do.” “You have to be willing to go inside, and understand what thoughts and beliefs were implanted in you when you were young, and how those can be affecting the decision-making that you make today.” “When you find yourself in a conflict or navigating somebody else's conflict, first you have to pay attention to what's happening in your body, what am I feeling? And then seeing other people - there's something inside of them that's uncomfortable with this, what can we do?” “Good leaders create more good leaders and influential leaders; their job is to create more good leaders.”- Maryanne Dersch Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

The Efficient Advisor: Tactical Business Advice for Financial Planners
In this episode, I sit down with Todd Pisarczyk of Momentus Wealth Management to unpack what it really looks like to go from a great advisory practice to a truly scalable, CEO-led firm. Todd shares the behind-the-scenes shifts, the unexpected realizations, and the tangible systems he built through coaching that helped him move from “doing all the things” to running a business with clarity, confidence, and a long-term vision. From refining processes to elevating the client experience, this conversation is packed with real advisor wins and practical inspiration. In this episode you'll learn: • Why even successful advisors hit a wall when their practice starts feeling like a “real business” • How documenting processes changed the game for Todd's team of eight and created repeatability for the next generation • The planning, tax, and client-experience upgrades that now keep almost every client showing up for reviews • How shifting into the CEO role brought Todd clarity, confidence, and a bigger mission for his firm • Why group coaching amplified his growth far beyond what he expectedTodd's story is an amazing reminder that growth doesn't require being a “hot mess.” Sometimes the biggest leaps come from refining what's already working, creating structure around what's been living in your head, and surrounding yourself with advisors who are building remarkable businesses too. His journey shows what's possible when you finally step into the CEO seat, create repeatable systems, and elevate your client experience with intention.Learn more about the Group Coaching & Mastermind HERE!

I sit down with Rev. Kate J. Meyer, LPC—an ordained minister, licensed professional counselor, hospice professional, and acclaimed author—whose life's work is dedicated to bringing grief out of the shadows and helping people move through loss with honesty, compassion, and faith. Drawing from decades of experience in hospice care, private practice, and spiritual counseling, Kate offers deeply grounded insights into the emotional, spiritual, and psychological realities of grief. She shares why so many grievers feel unseen or misunderstood within their faith communities, how spirituality can be both a comfort and a complication after loss, and why honoring your grief—not rushing or minimizing it—is essential for true healing. Together, Kate and I explore: What healthy grief really looks like Why faith doesn't erase pain—and why it shouldn't be expected to The difference between distraction and avoidance How grief evolves over time and becomes a lifelong companion Spiritual signs, continued bonds, and the unseen ways our loved ones remain close The deeply human experience of grief through the lens of hospice work How to navigate guilt, loneliness, overwhelming emotions, and those "grief waves" that resurface years later The importance of choosing carefully who you share your grief with—and who you don't This conversation is filled with wisdom, spiritual reflection, emotional validation, and practical tools for anyone walking through loss—whether you're in the early days of grief or decades into your healing journey. If you've ever wondered, "Am I grieving wrong?" or "Why does this still hurt so much?"—this episode is a gentle reminder that grief doesn't disappear. It changes shape, it grows with us, and healing is never about forgetting… it's about learning how to carry love forward. Episode Highlights Rev. Kate J. Meyer grief and faith Christian grief counseling spiritual grief healing healthy grieving process grief and spirituality hospice grief insights navigating grief and loss emotional healing after loss Christian counselor grief complicated grief support understanding grief waves lifelong grief journey grief validation and support mental health and grief faith-based grief support grief and emotional wellness spiritual signs after death continued bonds in grief grief conversations 2025 Know Rev.
