🎙️ Welcome back to The Level Up Podcast with Paul Alex!

In this episode, Paul unpacks a hard truth: sometimes the people closest to you—your friends—can unintentionally hold you back. While they may mean well, their advice often comes from a place of comfort, not experience. And when you're chasing big goals, comfort can be the enemy of progress.

Paul dives deep into why friendly advice can be dangerous when it’s not backed by real-world results, and how to separate emotional support from strategic guidance. If you’ve ever felt conflicted between following your ambition and listening to the people around you, this episode is for you.

What You’ll Learn:

⚠️ The Experience Gap: Why advice from someone who hasn’t walked your path might do more harm than good. 💭 Good Intentions, Bad Guidance: How well-meaning friends can unknowingly project their fears onto your decisions. 🎯 Filter the Feedback: Learn how to protect your vision while still maintaining your relationships. 🏆 Choose Mentors, Not Comfort: Why seeking advice from those who’ve done it will get you further, faster.

If you’re serious about leveling up, you’ll need to be just as intentional about who you listen to as you are about what you work on. Tune in now to learn how to move forward with clarity—and without guilt.
