063:Getting to the Next Level: The Key to Consistent Self-Improvement with Kevin Palmieri

In this episode of The Modern Man, I welcome Kevin Palmieri, a podcast coach, consultant, and the CFO, Founder & Co-Host of Next Level University, a self-improvement podcast about how to level up your life, your love, your health, and your wealth. Listen in as Kevin and I break down his unique self-improvement journey along with insights and advice you can use to launch your self-growth to the next level.

Having achieved a level of financial success in his mid 20s, Kevin's mental and emotional health had taken a big hit, leaving him contemplating suicide. So, he decided to leave his job, start a podcast from scratch, and turn his life around.

Tune in as Kevin speaks on the trials, setbacks, and intentional actions that go into molding the man you want to become. He offers wise advice on how to bounce back from failure even when you're deathly afraid of it, as well as how to grow through hardship and uncertainty. Plus, he shares what wishes he knew before starting his self-improvement journey and podcast.

"A lot of what we're doing is practice and that's where you make your mistakes, but eventually your mistakes are really, really high-quality mistakes and nobody really notices… and that's an interesting place to be." – Kevin Palmieri

Keep going, keep growing, keep being vulnerable, and the money will follow.
