You can only experience the content of your consciousness, because there's only YOU in your consciousness, and that includes everything from your health to other people...
Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge a belief that quietly sabotages high performers. You can push harder, grind longer, and sacrifice sleep for a while, but eventually your body collects the debt. Drawing from their own experiences with fatigue, recovery, and years of coaching clients, they break down why longevity habits influence focus, productivity, and long-term success far more than motivation alone. Most people chase results without realizing the foundation underneath them is unstable. This episode connects sleep, health, and discipline to the outcomes people want most but rarely trace back to their daily choices. If you want more energy, clearer thinking, and sustainable growth, this conversation will recalibrate your priorities. Do not wait for burnout to teach you what discipline can teach you now._______________________Learn more about:Book Alan's Business Breakthrough Session. Your first 30-minute coaching call is FREE.

Recover Your Soul: A Spiritual Path to a Happy and Healthy Life
I would love to hear from you! Send me a one way text and share how Recover Your Soul is supporting you or what you would like to hear more about.What if loving deeply didn't mean losing yourself?In this episode, I reflect on self-love through the lens of the Recover Your Soul process and my own journey from codependency, control, and self-sacrifice into something far more grounded and whole.So many of us learned early on that love meant being good, being helpful, being quiet, being compliant, or being whatever someone else needed us to be. We became experts at caring for everyone else while slowly disconnecting from our own voice, our own body, and our own truth for survival.True self-love is the courageous act of opening your heart while staying rooted in who you are.In this conversation, I share about the ways codependency teaches us to abandon ourselves in relationships, why protecting your heart is natural, and how those protectors form. We explore the difference between transactional love and spiritual love, and what it really means to love yourself first without loosing yourself.We talk about the steel gates around our hearts and how awakening allows us to soften those defenses without collapsing back into old patterns.Self-love is not about becoming perfect.It is about becoming present.It is about remembering your wholeness.When we stop asking others to Join the community and Recover Your Soul with Rev Rachel.2026 is a big year offering GROUP COACHING, IN-PERSON RETREATS, and our FREE SUPPORT GROUP.

You're always selling something. In today's episode, Kevin and Alan redefine sales as a core leadership skill, not a sleazy tactic. Influence shapes every outcome in your career, your relationships, and your growth. The real question is whether you are using it consciously. This conversation cuts through the noise around persuasion, trust, credibility, and effective communication. Sales is not pressure. It is clarity. It is the ability to transfer conviction so others can see what you already see. If you cannot communicate value, you cannot lead. If you cannot build trust, you cannot scale. Stop avoiding the skill that determines your ceiling. Build it._______________________Learn more about:Book Alan's Business Breakthrough Session. Your first 30-minute coaching call is FREE.

The Efficient Advisor: Tactical Business Advice for Financial Planners
Revenue growth can feel exciting—but if you don't know your margins, you're flying blind.
Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros unpack why so many people lose momentum after reaching a goal and how that quiet pattern limits long-term success. After years of building businesses, coaching clients, and studying high-performance behavior, they have seen the same cycle repeat as people push hard to win, comfort sets in, discipline fades, and standards slip.They explain why lasting growth comes from identity, not outcomes. You'll learn how motivation really works, why external rewards rarely sustain progress, and how aligned habits create stability in business, health, and relationships. This is a practical conversation about building self-driven discipline and durable systems that hold up even when motivation runs low._______________________Digital Asset:The 5 M's of Next Level Motivation - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SNYQ2RuPg6fgqGA5Og9a7xFmX2lR3y7x/view_______________________Learn more about:Book Alan's Business Breakthrough Session.

Key Takeaways:Chasing a yes often comes from anxiety, not intention, and people can feel that pressure immediately. When you stop needing a specific outcome, your tone relaxes and trust increases naturally. Your role is to help others decide freely, not to manage your own fear through follow-ups.Momentum shows up as shared energy, mutual curiosity, and agreed-upon next steps. Chasing looks like one-sided check-ins, escalating urgency, and tension after sending messages. Learning to tell the difference protects your time and preserves relational integrity.People avoid giving honest answers when saying no feels costly or awkward. Explicit permission to decline reduces avoidance and leads to faster, cleaner decisions. Trust grows when people feel respected, regardless of what they choose.Fantasy relationships rely on polite delays that sound like yes but function as no. Booking the next meeting during the current one turns vague interest into real movement. When someone will not schedule a follow-up, it is often wiser to release than to pursue. “Pressure is when a donor feels managed. Relationship is when they feel respected.” “A fantasy relationship just means that you're not able to be honest. So you're both pretending… because nobody knows what to say to actually get you out of it.” “The more permission you give people to say no, the more likely they are to say yes.” - Maryanne Dersch Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

Success is a lease, not a trophy. In today's episode, Kevin and Alan explore why most people lose momentum right after they win. When goals are reached, discipline fades, standards soften, and progress quietly slips.

It is about protecting your habits, sharpening your identity, and staying committed when comfort becomes tempting.If you want lasting confidence, consistency, and performance, this episode will reset how you think about winning.

Recover Your Soul: A Spiritual Path to a Happy and Healthy Life
I would love to hear from you! Send me a one way text and share how Recover Your Soul is supporting you or what you would like to hear more about.What if the real healing isn't found in forcing yourself to be stronger, but in deciding its time to awaken?I'm a couple days away from celebrating 8 years sober, and I'm sharing this as a Soul Journey story. When I finally decided to stop drinking, it was more than giving up alcohol. It was a decision to listen to my Higher Self and step fully into the life my soul was asking for.In this episode, I take you back to a trip to Southeast Asia that gave me just enough space to remember who I am beneath the chaos. I share the moment that surprised me most, the car ride home from the airport when the old stress returned fast and I could feel the pull to escape rise up in my body. That was the moment I knew I had to choose myself.Inspired by Eckhart Tolle's A New Earth, we explore the pain body as the unconscious part of us that clings to old wounds, story, and suffering, always searching for relief. This teaching aligns so beautifully with the Recover Your Soul process. Waking up is the antidote. Presence is the doorway.

In this episode, Brittany Anderson and Christina Lecuyer dive into the kinds of conversations many people are thinking about — but not always saying out loud.From the Grammys and public authenticity to money habits, subscriptions, student debt, and the real cost of education, this episode blends cultural commentary with real-life financial awareness. Brittany and Christina unpack how quickly expenses can add up, why understanding your personal finances is a form of self-leadership, and how women in particular often undervalue their worth — both personally and professionally.They also explore alternative paths to success beyond traditional education, the rise of trades and small businesses, and the importance of real-world experience over checking boxes. At its core, this conversation is about ownership — of your voice, your money, your value, and your life.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by finances, questioned the “right” path, or struggled to confidently ask for what you're worth, this episode is for you.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).

I open my heart and share where I truly am in my grief journey—eight years after losing Paul, and after walking through layers of loss I never imagined I'd have to carry. This episode was born out of a quiet but powerful realization during the holidays: that grief evolves, that endings can bring clarity, and that moving forward doesn't mean forgetting—it means choosing alignment, peace, and authenticity. I reflect on parental estrangement, complicated family dynamics, selling the home Paul and I built our life in, and the tender moment of recognizing when a chapter has truly completed. I talk honestly about what I've learned along the way: How sitting with your feelings—rather than avoiding them—can bring unexpected peace Why turning inward matters more than seeking answers from others Letting go of anger, old stories, and the need to react Trusting your inner guidance, even when life feels unfair Holding grief and hope in the same container Choosing not to participate in cycles of dysfunction Finding purpose after loss, even when it feels scary or unreasonable I also share how opening a community-centered barre studio became part of my healing—not because grief ended, but because I allowed myself to evolve. This episode is about trusting that what broke you may also be the thing that reshapes you into someone stronger, clearer, and more aligned than ever before. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure whether you'll ever be "okay" again, I want you to hear this clearly: you are not broken, you are not grieving wrong, and you are capable of moving forward in your own time. This episode is an invitation—to get quiet, to turn inward, to trust yourself, and to believe that even now, something meaningful is still unfolding for you. Welcome to New Ways Barre.

The Efficient Advisor: Tactical Business Advice for Financial Planners
Running a financial advisory firm often looks appealing from the outside: freedom, flexibility, and income potential. But the reality of being a true business owner requires an entirely different skill set. In this episode, Libby sits down with Hannah Moore to have an honest, vulnerable conversation about what it really takes to move from advisor to CEO, including the emotional, operational, and leadership challenges that often go unspoken ✨In this episode, you'll learn:Why owning a firm is fundamentally different from being a great financial advisor, and why most advisors are unprepared for that shiftHow Hannah navigated massive business transitions, including reducing her client base, growing two companies, and building a leadership teamWhat it actually looks like to delegate meaningful responsibilities like sales calls and client relationshipsHow ego, identity, and grief can quietly hold advisors back from scaling their firmsWhy self-awareness is one of the most important traits of successful advisors and CEOsThis episode is a powerful reminder that growth doesn't come from doing more, but from letting go, building trust in your team, and stepping fully into the CEO role. If you're feeling stretched, overwhelmed, or stuck in the day-to-day, this conversation will help you see what's possible on the other side of intentional leadership.Find Hannah on LinkedIn HERE!Learn more about Amplified Planning HERE!Learn more about the Group Coaching & Mastermind HERE!

In this thoughtful and deeply grounded episode, I sit down with Gyani Richards, MA—a grief counselor, Certified Grief Educator, and lifelong student of meditation and wisdom traditions—to explore what it truly means to live with grief over a lifetime. Gyani's path into grief work began early, following the death of his father when he was just 13 years old. That loss set him on a lifelong journey of inquiry—one that led him into meditation, Eastern and Western wisdom traditions, martial arts, and ultimately the field of grief counseling. With over 40 years of personal practice and professional experience, Gyani brings a calm, compassionate, and deeply human presence to conversations about loss. In this episode, we talk about grief not as something to "get over," but as an experience that unfolds, evolves, and teaches us over time. Gyani shares how meditation, embodied awareness, and spiritual inquiry can support grievers without bypassing pain or forcing healing. Drawing from his background in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology, Aikido, and grief education, he offers insights into how grief lives in the body, how presence can soften suffering, and why meaning-making is a deeply personal process. Together, we explore themes such as: Early loss and its lifelong impact Grief as a teacher rather than a problem to solve Meditation and mindfulness in grief support The role of embodiment and movement in healing Integrating wisdom traditions with modern grief counseling Learning to meet grief with curiosity, compassion, and patience This conversation is especially meaningful for those seeking a quieter, more contemplative approach to grief—one that honors sorrow while gently opening space for growth, insight, and resilience. Whether you're newly grieving or decades into your loss, this episode offers reassurance that grief does not mean you are broken—and that wisdom, presence, and healing can emerge when we learn to walk alongside it.

What if the thing holding you back is not confidence, but the feedback you keep avoiding?In this episode, Kevin and Alan challenge one of the most popular myths in self-improvement.

Key Takeaways:Lasting fundraising growth does not come from better tactics alone but from changing the internal narratives that drive behavior. Coaching addresses fear, money stories, and self-doubt that silently undermine even the best strategies.Fundraising leaders often carry invisible baggage that affects how they show up with donors and teams. Coaching builds awareness, emotional neutrality, and sovereignty by separating facts from stories and reducing reactive behavior.Effective fundraising leaders coach boards and staff through fear, avoidance, and shame rather than simply training them. Through questions, accountability, and normalized discomfort, coaching creates ownership without blame.Over-functioning leaders burn out when they carry all the emotional and relational weight alone. Coaching redistributes responsibility, strengthens collaboration, and removes leaders as the bottleneck in fundraising efforts. “Strategy is great. Training is great. You need both those things, but mostly they do not shift your mindset. They do not shift your thinking.” “Sovereignty means you own your own thoughts, choices, and actions. You do not outsource your confidence to outcomes, and you do not let no define your worth or competence.” “At its heart, fundraising is a team sport. When you coach instead of carry, you stop being the bottleneck.” - Maryanne Dersch Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

In today's episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros dismantle a common lie in personal development. Priorities are not defined by what you say. They are defined by what you do when conditions are inconvenient. This episode focuses on execution, identity, and non-negotiable standards. It challenges the gap between intention and behavior and highlights why consistency under pressure is the real measure of growth.No motivation. No hype. Just the discipline required to build self-respect and long-term results. Press play. Then decide if your actions match your standards._______________________Digital Asset: The 5 Next Level S's of Success - MicroLearn more about:Where learning turns into action. “Next Level Book Club” every Saturday:https://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMkcuiupjIqE9QlkptiKDQykRtKyFB5JbhcJoin 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.

What happens when life hits harder than your capacity can handle?In this episode, Kevin and Alan explain why readiness is not built in moments of pressure, but long before they arrive. Most people do not fail from lack of effort. They fail because their capacity is too small for the life they want. After years of building businesses, navigating setbacks, coaching clients, and recording thousands of conversations on growth, they have seen the same pattern repeat. Comfort weakens readiness. Short-term thinking limits resilience. When life demands more, most people are exposed.If you want to meet life with strength instead of reaction, this episode will change how you think about preparation. Build the capacity now, or pay the price later. Press play accordingly.Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.

In today's episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros expose a common breakdown in personal growth that has nothing to do with motivation or effort. It starts with the moment you set a goal and quietly avoid the standard required to achieve it. This episode centers on self-leadership, accountability, and the discipline to act in alignment with who you say you want to become. It challenges the way most people negotiate with themselves, lowers expectations under pressure, and confuses awareness with progress. The result is stalled momentum and eroded self-trust.If you want results that compound and standards that hold, this episode will force an honest look at who is really in charge of your future. Decide accordingly.Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.
