High school can shape us in unexpected ways. In this Freestyle Friday episode, Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros discuss the truth about personal growth, setbacks, and what truly fuels lasting success. They challenge common beliefs about revenge, self-worth, and the power of habits—sharing real stories and hard-earned lessons. If you’ve ever felt underestimated or struggled with self-doubt, this episode will give you the perspective and motivation to rise above.
