In this raw and resonant episode of Vulnerability Muscle, host Reggie D. Ford sits down with Kevin Palmieri, founder and co-host of the globally-ranked Next Level University podcast, for an unforgettable conversation about how vulnerability saved his life.
Kevin shares his powerful journey from early financial instability and the absence of his father to climbing the ranks of success—only to find himself spiraling into depression and near suicide at the peak of his external achievements. From bodybuilder to podcaster to transformational coach, Kevin recounts the moment he hit rock bottom in a New Jersey hotel room and the brave call to a trusted friend that altered the course of his life forever.
Together, Reggie and Kevin explore:
* What true success feels like beyond money and metrics
* The meaning of vulnerability as strength—and the difference between sharing scars vs. open wounds
* How the Compound Effect and sustainability apply to podcasting, personal growth, and belief
* The emotional toll of overachievement and fear of success
* Building a purpose-driven business without sponsors or ads
* The secrets behind monetizing a podcast by solving real problems
* The inner work required to develop unshakable self-worth
* Healing the father wound: Kevin's unexpected Facebook message and reunion with his estranged dad
* Identity, alignment, and how to chase goals while feeling whole now
This episode is a masterclass in transformation, mental wellness, entrepreneurship, and emotional intelligence—all grounded in personal truth. Whether you're an aspiring podcaster, a high achiever seeking deeper meaning, or someone working through past wounds, this episode offers insight, hope, and practical wisdom.
