Want a life that actually matters — not just more stuff? 🎧

In this episode, John Suzuki sits down with Alan Lazaros, founder & CEO of Next Level University, to unpack what it really means to optimize for fulfillment — not just happiness or success. After surviving a near-fatal car accident at 26, Alan rebuilt his life around purpose, personal development, and reaching one’s full potential.

Together, John and Alan explore the mathematics of consistency, the compounding effect of tiny daily improvements, and why being “healthy, wealthy, and in love” is so rare — yet worth striving for.

Inside this conversation, you’ll learn:

1. Why “fulfillment” (not quick happiness) is the real north star 2. How 0.1% daily improvement compounds into massive life outcomes 3. How to reframe setbacks as turning points toward purpose 4. Why health, wealth, and love are “three full-time jobs” 5. How to play the long game using math, mindset, and meaning 6. Why community and belonging will be the next true competitive edge

💡 Key Takeaways:

1. Small, consistent improvement beats intensity — every time 2. Fulfillment is a by-product of pursuing your full potential 3. True balance in health, wealth, and love requires intention 4. The rate of change is exponential — human connection is the anchor
