About Kevin Palmieri

I’m the CFO, Founder, and Co-Host of Next Level University, a Global Top 100 Self-Improvement Podcast with over 1,900 episodes, 1 million+ listens, and an audience spanning 170+ countries. Our mission is simple but powerful: helping people take their lives to the next level through heart-driven, no BS self-improvement...

…My Rock Bottom Became My Turning Point

Some people find rock bottom—I discovered that rock bottom has a basement.

In my mid-20s, I seemingly had it all—a high-paying job, a beautiful girlfriend, a sports car, and the body I’d always wanted. But inside, I was battling deep depression and anxiety, ultimately sitting on the edge of my bed contemplating suicide.

That moment changed everything.

I made a radical commitment to holistic self-improvement, diving headfirst into personal development, emotional healing, and mindset transformation. I chose to stop chasing surface-level success and start building a meaningful life from the inside out.

The Podcast, The Mission, The Movement

Fast forward to today:

  • I’ve recorded over 1,650 podcast episodes
  • Helped grow Next Level University into a multi-six-figure business
  • Spoken at hundreds of live events, trainings, and coaching calls globally
  • Empowered thousands of listeners every week through real, raw, and impactful content

What I Teach

I specialize in transformational topics such as:

  • Consistency & Commitment
  • Habits & Mindset
  • Confidence & Fear
  • Relationships & Communication
  • Limiting Beliefs & Personal Accountability

I believe in heart-driven leadership and no BS personal growth. True change starts with self-awareness and the courage to challenge the beliefs holding you back.
