Have you ever found yourself in the throes of self-improvement, only to realize you might be losing the essence of what makes you, well, you? In this episode, Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros shared a moment of vulnerability that sparked an epic conversation about identity, authenticity, and the fine line between enhancing who we are and staying true to ourselves. They tackle why it's essential to recognize and celebrate our quirks rather than trying to sand them down to fit someone else's mold—yes, even if that mold belongs to someone as cool as someone we're not.
