Manage episode 355411317 series 2895495
“Nice is the tip of the iceberg. And I think ‘kind’ is when you dig deeper and you're more intentional specific with the way you treat people,” explains Kevin Palmieri. Kevin is the CFO, founder, and co-host of Next Level University, a global top 100 self improvement podcast. Today, Kevin shares how he fell in love with podcasting, how he learned to see courage in vulnerability, and the importance of intentionality.
When asked the three words that best describe his personality, Kevin was quick to respond with ‘consistent’, ‘kind’, and ‘caring’. Consistency is incredibly important when building a relationship with listeners and growing a global podcast audience. Kindness takes niceness a step further by adding more intentionality behind your actions. Make sure that your actions reflect how much you care about other people, even if that means allowing someone to see you being vulnerable.
Although it was challenging and frightening for Kevin to leave behind his high paying job and take a risk on becoming a podcaster, it was also incredibly courageous. The more you allow yourself to be vulnerable and take chances, the more you will begin to gain the confidence that will enable you to accomplish more than you ever thought possible.
