In today’s episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros break down how social media can quietly take over our days, skew our self-esteem, and distract us from living a life we’re truly proud of. They talk about the emotional cost of constant comparison, the hidden time sink of scrolling, and why we often feel empty even after hours of “relaxing.” You’ll also hear practical ways to shift from being a consumer to becoming a contributor—so you can build real confidence, live with purpose, and actually enjoy your rest.
