đď¸ Welcome back to The Level Up Podcast with Paul Alex!
In this episode, Paul unpacks a hard truth: sometimes the people closest to youâyour friendsâcan 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 itâs not backed by real-world results, and how to separate emotional support from strategic guidance. If youâve ever felt conflicted between following your ambition and listening to the people around you, this episode is for you.
