On this episode of Cracking the Code Ryan has on Alan Lazaros, founder and CEO of Next Level University. Alan leads a global team at NLU and has given hundreds of trainings all over the world. He has happily completed thousands of one-on-one coaching calls with clients. Alan received a bachelor's degree from Worcester Polytech Institute in engineering.

During this episode, Alan opened up and discussed the impact of losing his father in a car accident at the young age of two years. His stepfather was a part of his life from the age of three to 14 when he left the family behind. Due to these traumatic events that happened in his life he suffered from abandonment issues and tried so hard to fit in, to keep those close to him around.  

 At age 26, after getting into a nearly fatal car accident, Alan questioned everything he was doing in life. He questioned who he was and the choices he was making. He was at an all-time low. After the accident, Alan suffered from PTSD. Filled with regret, Alan searched for answers and found two of the brightest lights he had ever seen. The first bright light was a book by Bronnie Ware entitled, “The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying,” and the second was a Ted Talk by Tony Robbins. Both resources helped him find his way and guided him to make the choice of going to ALL IN on self-improvement to design a life of meaning and purpose. 

On this self-improvement journey, he has learned to believe in a heart-driven but NO BS approach to inspiring, motivating, and educating others on what it REALLY takes to get to the Next Level. Today, Alan is proud to say it is his mission to help others design fulfilling lives, maximize their own unique potential, and build aligned businesses they love on their own terms. He has a powerful combination of technical expertise and business acumen specializing in Peak Performance, Productivity, Organizational Design, and Individual, Team, and Business Optimization.
